武装思想 清理思想 改造思想 ■桑 叶 思想是行动的先导,整齐思想才能整齐步伐。 习主席在全军高级干部培训班开班式上发表重要讲话强调,“开展思想整风,深化政治整训,加强我军干部队伍革命性锻造,始终保持人民军队纯洁光荣”。贯彻这一重要讲话精神,深入开展思想整风,要求领导干部按照学查改一体推进的思路,走实武装思想、清理思想、改造思想的完整链路,坚定自觉地把政治整训引向深入。 思想决定意识。没有正确的思想,就不可能产生正确的行动。所谓思想整风,就是用学习、反省、批评等方式,开展思想大扫除,真正革弊鼎新、固本开新,筑牢信仰之基、补足精神之钙、把稳思想之舵。思想整风是政治整训的有效方式。少数领导干部身上存在的一些问题,从根源上说都是思想上的问题。领导干部只有带头开展思想整风,把武装思想、清理思想、改造思想贯通起来,切实把错误的思想根子拔除掉,把正确价值观念立起来,才能立起领导干部好样子。 理论就是武器,思想就是力量。我军思想整风、政治整训历来注重武装思想、理论先行。武装思想越深入,领导干部就越有主心骨、定盘星、指南针。坚持在武装思想上下功夫,要求领导干部自觉用习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想改造主观世界,深入学习贯彻习近平强军思想,学深悟透“六个必须坚持”的世界观和方法论、“五个坚持”的军事观和方法论,从立场观点方法上深纠实改,切实改造思想、校正“三观”,打牢坚定听党话、始终跟党走的思想根基。 领导干部并非生活在真空中,难免受到这样那样的污染和侵蚀。对此,各级领导干部应时刻保持清醒:思想一旦蒙尘,行动就会出现偏差。清理思想,重在突出针对性和实效性。领导干部只有勤掸“思想尘”、多思“贪欲害”、常破“心中贼”,警惕防范和反思纠治投机取巧、心存侥幸、自我麻痹等错误思想和心理,不断去杂质、除病毒、防污染,以内无妄思保证外无妄动,才能永葆共产党人的蓬勃朝气、昂扬锐气、浩然正气。 人是靠思想站立的,思想愈改造则愈强大。改造思想是领导干部自我革命的内在需要,也是深化思想整风的必然要求。周恩来同志说过:“每个党员从加入共产党起,就应该有这么一个认识:准备改造思想,一直改造到老。”改造思想,贵在增强自觉性和彻底性。领导干部要将改造思想作为终身课题,把自己摆进去、把职责摆进去、把工作摆进去,不断增强自我净化、自我完善、自我革新、自我提高的能力。 武装思想、清理思想、改造思想,三者相辅相成、辩证统一。其中武装思想是根本指引、清理思想是有效途径、改造思想是重要保证,共同推动领导干部自觉开展思想整风,更好地统一思想、统一意志、统一行动。新征程上,领导干部只有自觉加强理论学习、不断武装思想,坚持问题导向、及时清理思想,经常自我检视、持久改造思想,解决好理想信念、党性修养、官德人品等思想根子问题,守好思想防线、用权底线、法纪红线、家风界线,才能以笃信、务实、担当、自律的过硬作风,感召和带动部队实现高质量发展、提升打赢硬本领。

Summary

Machine summary

A commentary in the PLA's Strong Military Forum by author Sang Ye elaborates on Xi Jinping's directive—delivered at the opening of a senior cadre training course for the entire military—to conduct 思想整风 (ideological rectification) and 政治整训 (political consolidation training), framing the campaign around three sequential demands: arming, cleansing, and transforming the minds of leading cadres. The piece documents the institutional vocabulary and normative framework the PLA is deploying to enforce ideological conformity among officers, targeting what it describes as opportunism, wishful thinking, and self-numbing as specific failure modes. This is standard political work content; its value is as a record of how the institution is framing the current rectification campaign to senior officers, not as evidence of a new policy line or changed force posture.
