Innovation is the mission entrusted by the times to the party building work in colleges and universities.
The innovation of Party building work in colleges and universities is an urgent need to adapt to the development of international and domestic situations. The competition in today's world is not only reflected in economy, science and technology, national defense and other aspects, but also involves the fields of culture and ideology. As the builders and successors of socialism, colleges and universities are always at the forefront of ideological and cultural impact. With the deepening of reform, social and economic components are increasingly diverse, and deep-seated contradictions are constantly accumulating and highlighting. At the same time, social consciousness and values tend to be diversified, and noise in the ideological field appears from time to time. Some teachers and students have a vague understanding of the nature and future of socialism. This grim situation urgently requires us to strengthen the party's ruling ability in the ideological field and build a solid ideological and political defense line.
The innovation of party building in colleges and universities is an inherent need to adapt to the reform and development of higher education. At present, China's higher education is in a period of great development, and great progress has been made in the adjustment of university layout and management system reform, but the task of building a modern university with China characteristics is still very arduous. After elite education enters the stage of popular education, it is a long way to go to improve the quality of running schools and accelerate the modernization of higher education. With the continuous expansion of enrollment, the construction of basic teaching conditions is obviously lagging behind, and the quality of students is uneven. How to ensure the quality of personnel training through effective work by party organizations in colleges and universities puts forward new requirements for party building in colleges and universities.
Innovation of Party building in colleges and universities is an inevitable requirement for building a harmonious socialist campus. Building a harmonious socialist campus is an important task of party building in colleges and universities in the new period. Generally speaking, China's universities are harmonious at present, but in some universities, there are still a few disharmonious factors or potential tendencies. Therefore, party organizations in colleges and universities must pay enough attention to the strategic task of building a harmonious campus, give full play to the role of party organizations in rallying people's hearts and promoting harmony, and comprehensively promote party building innovation in colleges and universities in the process of solving contradictions and problems.
Ideas and principles of innovation in party building work in colleges and universities
To keep pace with the times, Party building in colleges and universities must actively study the inherent laws of the development of higher education and Party building in colleges and universities under the new situation, study new situations, solve new problems, form new understandings and open up new situations under the guidance of advanced ideas.
Promoting the new great project of party building in colleges and universities in the new period with the spirit of reform and innovation. Colleges and universities are places where intellectuals gather, distribution centers of various ideas and cultures, and birthplaces of new ideas and concepts. Especially with the in-depth development of economic globalization and cultural diversification, various social thoughts have a greater and greater direct impact on colleges and universities, and the ideological and political work led by schools is becoming more and more difficult. To carry out the party building work in colleges and universities, it is especially necessary to carry forward the spirit of reform and innovation, constantly improve the level of work, and make the party organizations in colleges and universities keep their vitality forever.
People-oriented is the starting point and destination of party building in colleges and universities in the new period. In the current party building and ideological and political work, there is still a widespread phenomenon of "task-centered" work. Ignoring people's personality development and emotional expression often results in half the effort. Therefore, under the new situation, Party building and ideological and political work must inherit and carry forward the fine traditions of the Party's mass work and ideological and political work, strive to realize the people-centered transformation, start with understanding, respecting, inspiring and caring for people, timely and accurately grasp the ideological trends of teachers and students, combine solving ideological problems with solving practical problems, and fully stimulate and mobilize their enthusiasm, initiative and creativity.
"Grasping Party Building around the Center and Promoting Development". Only by integrating the party building work into the central work of the school can the party's leadership over the school be implemented and the party's construction have vitality. Party building in colleges and universities should further strengthen the central consciousness, establish the idea that all school work should serve education, teaching and personnel training, always take "teaching as the center, educating people as the foundation, and ensuring party building" as the fundamental purpose, organically integrate party building into the overall development of the school, especially the central work of education and teaching, grasp party building around the center, do a good job in promoting development, and give full play to the service function and guarantee role of party building.
Reflections on the Innovation of Party Construction in Colleges and Universities in the New Period
Innovation in ideological and theoretical construction is the premise of innovation in party building in colleges and universities. The most important thing is to insist on arming party member and educating teachers and students with the latest theoretical achievements of Marxism in China. At present, it is particularly important to study and implement Scientific Outlook on Development as the top priority of theoretical armed forces. Teachers are engineers of the human soul and play a leading role in education and teaching activities, which determines whether the educational policy can be implemented and whether the training objectives can be realized. Young college students are the future of the motherland, qualified builders and reliable successors of the cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics. Their recognition of mainstream ideology is directly related to their own growth and the maintenance and dissemination of Socialism with Chinese characteristics's theoretical system. Therefore, college students' work should firmly adhere to the principle of educating people, putting moral education first, taking education of ideals and beliefs as the core, focusing on patriotism education, taking ideological and moral construction as the foundation and aiming at the all-round development of college students, and strive to improve the level of ideological and political work. At the same time, colleges and universities should give full play to their talent and discipline advantages, promote Marxist theoretical research and construction projects, actively organize party workers and experts and scholars in philosophy and social sciences, conduct research and exploration around a series of major issues of party building, and introduce more weighty, in-depth and valuable theoretical achievements to make more contributions to theoretical research on party building.
Institutional innovation is the key to the innovation of party building in colleges and universities. Institutional innovation is conducive to promoting the optimal combination of various relations in party building work and promoting the coordinated operation of the party building work system. First of all, we should improve the party's leadership system. By establishing and improving the rules of procedure of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and the president's office and a scientific and efficient democratic decision-making mechanism, we can correctly handle the relationship between "the leadership of the Party Committee" and "the responsibility of the president" and form an operating mechanism of unified leadership of the Party Committee, division of labor and cooperation between the Party and the government, and coordination. Secondly, we should establish a scientific and effective evaluation mechanism, incentive mechanism and supervision mechanism. We should earnestly respect party member's dominant position, improve the inner-party democratic system, safeguard party member's democratic rights, and create conditions for party member to participate in school decision-making and inner-party affairs.
The innovation of ways and means is the source of vitality for the innovation of party building work in colleges and universities. The first is to innovate the way of setting up grass-roots party organizations. With the deepening of the credit system and flexible academic system in colleges and universities, the traditional concept of grades and classes has gradually faded, and the management model based on "departments and classes" can no longer meet the management requirements of modern colleges and universities. Party building and ideological and political work in colleges and universities should actively adapt to changes in the situation, focus on student groups, and actively explore the establishment of a suitable form of party organization. In terms of the establishment of teachers' branch schools, in recent years, due to the continuous expansion of the scale of colleges and universities, many schools have merged to build hospitals, and the traditional teaching and research offices have been merged or cancelled. In order to adapt to this change, colleges and universities should set up staff party branches with departments, institutes and centers as units, and build a party building mechanism combining teaching, scientific research, management and construction based on the fact that the number of people in party member is conducive to activities.
Adapting to the development of network technology and innovating the carrier of party building work. The rapid development of network information technology has brought challenges to party building and ideological and political work in colleges and universities. The change of the situation requires party construction workers in colleges and universities to be in the forefront of the times, take the initiative to meet the challenges of informationization and networking, boldly explore the mechanism of introducing modern scientific and technological achievements into the field of party construction and ideological and political work, innovate the carrier of party construction and ideological and political work, and organically integrate the methods of party construction work with those of emerging disciplines such as information science.
