Resolution on Certain Historical Issues of the Party Since the Founding of the People's Republic
Around the time of the third plenary session of the 11th Central Committee, the CPC was struggling to extricate itself from political and ideological chaos. Doubts surfaced both inside and outside the Party about socialism and the viability of the Party, and about Mao Zedong's lifelong contributions and the validity of his ideas. Against this backdrop a resolution on some key related issues was developed. Commencing in November 1979, the drafting process underwent multiple rounds of discussions and revisions before the final document was adopted by consensus at the sixth plenary session of the 11th CPC Central Committee in June 1981.
The resolution evaluated major initiatives the Party had launched since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and in particular the Cultural Revolution. It also assessed Mao's accomplishments and missteps as well as the basic tenets of his philosophy and its value in guiding the nation forward. The misguided thinking behind the Cultural Revolution and the so-called "continuous revolution under the dictatorship of the proletariat" was unequivocally repudiated. Evidence-based conclusions were reached on important events and people in history, and on our experience with the socialist revolution and economic development under socialism. The resolution reaffirmed the step-by-step approach to building a strong, modern socialist country, in response to China's existing realities, pursued since the third plenary session of the 11th CPC Central Committee. It set the future direction of Chinese socialism and of the Party, and helped build cohesion within the Party. It made a fact-based assessment of Mao's place in history, and fully reconfirmed Mao Zedong Thought as the CPC's guiding philosophy.
《關(guān)于建國以來黨的若干歷史問題的決議》
黨的十一屆三中全會前后，中國共產(chǎn)黨進(jìn)行了指導(dǎo)思想和各條戰(zhàn)線的撥亂反正工作。在這一過程中，黨內(nèi)外一些人士對社會主義和黨自身產(chǎn)生了一些疑惑，對毛澤東的一生功績和思想的正確性也有一些不正確的想法。《關(guān)于建國以來黨的若干歷史問題的決議》就是在這樣的歷史背景下起草的。其起草工作從1979年11月開始，經(jīng)長時間討論和修改，于1981年6月中國共產(chǎn)黨第十一屆六中全會一致通過。
決議對建國以來黨的重大歷史問題特別是“文化大革命”、毛澤東的功過是非和毛澤東思想的基本內(nèi)容與指導(dǎo)意義做了總結(jié)和評價。《關(guān)于建國以來黨的若干歷史問題的決議》從根本上否定了“文化大革命”和“無產(chǎn)階級專政下繼續(xù)革命”的錯誤理論，對一些重大歷史事件和重要歷史人物做出了實事求是的評價，科學(xué)總結(jié)了中華人民共和國成立以來社會主義革命和社會主義建設(shè)的歷史經(jīng)驗，肯定了十一屆三中全會以來逐步確立的適合中國國情的建設(shè)社會主義現(xiàn)代化強(qiáng)國的正確道路，進(jìn)一步指明了中國社會主義事業(yè)和黨的工作繼續(xù)前進(jìn)的方向，統(tǒng)一了全黨的思想。決議實事求是地評價了毛澤東的歷史地位，充分肯定毛澤東思想作為中國共產(chǎn)黨的指導(dǎo)思想的偉大意義。
