Research on the Countermeasures of College Students' Party Construction under the New Situation
College students are a high-quality group, and they are the objects that our party should focus on cultivating and developing. Actively and cautiously absorbing outstanding college students to join the party is the most important task of party building in colleges and universities.
First, the situation faced by college students' party building work
Under the new historical conditions, the party building work in colleges and universities is facing many new situations and problems. We must understand the significance of doing well the party building work for students in a broader and deeper sense.
(1) With the increasingly fierce global competition, China is seeking development opportunities in the face of challenges.
The theme of today's world era is peace and development, but it is full of a new round of more intense competition. China seeks development opportunities in the face of challenges, but it may be obstructed by external hostile forces. Strengthening party building, especially cultivating the younger generation of producers with firm political beliefs and modern knowledge, is an important cornerstone for strengthening the country and enriching the people.
(B) highly developed information technology, the party's traditional way of working has been impacted.
The information age is characterized by a large amount of information, rapid dissemination, wide coverage, high openness and strong global interaction. In a sense, colleges and universities are the meeting centers of all kinds of information, including "Chinese and Western cultures". This makes the environment of party building work more complicated. In the past, the top-down inner-party learning model, which focused on preaching, could not meet the needs of party member to a great extent. The traditional educational system and means are facing challenges. In colleges and universities, some students, party member and party activists are not interested in inner-party learning and education activities, which are all related to this. Therefore, we need to find new ways and means to instill in students the ideals and beliefs of * * * productism, arm their minds with Deng Xiaoping Theory, and make them successors to the Party's cause.
(3) The reform of higher education has been further deepened, and the traditional teaching organization mode is facing new challenges.
The deepening of higher education reform highlights some new features.
1. With the gradual implementation of the credit system and the socialization of logistics, the traditional organizational form of carrying out activities according to classes and grades has become increasingly loose, which has led to the weakening of students' campus consciousness and class concept. Student associations and other activities may become the main places and ways for students to learn and exchange their thoughts and feelings.
2. Economic factors are increasingly prominent. Students pay to go to college, and the cost of study increases gradually, which increases the pressure of students' life and leads to the temptation of material interests. The question of who to study for and how to study is placed in front of students; What kind of talents to cultivate and how to cultivate talents have become important issues that must be considered in the party building work of college students.
It is more practical to choose a career after graduation. The marketization of students' employment after graduation makes students' employment in party member move towards autonomy. How to let party member graduates enter the society and continue to play a vanguard and exemplary role is a new topic of Party building in colleges and universities.
4. The expansion of the scale of higher education has led to an increase in the heterogeneity of student groups and an increase in the scope of communication. How to make young students grow up healthily under the influence of the ideal of university * * * is an important mission of university party organizations.
Second, the current problems in college students' party building work
College students' party building has certain advantages, but the working conditions are not suitable for the requirements of the new situation. To strengthen and improve the party building work of college students, we must seriously study the new situation and existing problems.
(1) The management system is fragmented, and the party building work lacks a strong grasp and work carrier.
The Party building work of college students is basically the responsibility of the Deputy Secretary of the General Party Branch of the Department in charge of student work, with the participation of party member's counselor, forming a working system with a line between departments and classes. However, the influence and role of various student associations have been further strengthened, which further highlights the defects of the existing student work management system, such as the division of labor between ideological and political work and party building, and the division of labor between the Ministry of Education and the Youth League Committee (Student Union). The deputy secretary in charge and the counselor are busy with their daily affairs, so it is difficult to think and arrange students' party building and ideological and political work organically with other student work departments; Grass-roots party organizations lack guidance and help for students' party building. Teachers in party member are arranged to be the contacts for students to join the Party, and some of them are not in place.
(C) Party building content is not clear enough, and the actual work orientation is low.
Party building includes political construction, ideological construction, organizational construction, work style construction and team building. College students' Party building work should have its own emphasis and characteristics. But now a student party member's activities are out of touch with non-party activities, and lack of contact with the activities of league organizations and student associations; The party building work of college students is not really oriented to cultivating and bringing up successors of the socialist cause. The activities of grass-roots party organizations are poor, and they are mostly used to solve the development problems of new party member or read newspapers and documents, and there are few activities of ideological confrontation, criticism and self-criticism.
(D) party member's vanguard and exemplary role has not been brought into full play, and its overall influence is not obvious.
Student party member should play a vanguard and exemplary role in mass collective activities. But on the whole, college students' party building is strictly controlled in terms of "import", but some students have not played a vanguard and exemplary role in the masses and collectives after joining the party; The overall influence of student party organizations is not obvious. Among all kinds of mass organizations active on campus, the right to speak of student party organizations is relatively low, and student party member plays a limited role in all kinds of student activities.
Working methods and concepts are outdated, and there is insufficient thinking about cultivating modern talents.
Party organizations should attract modern talents to join the Party. However, some party construction workers have outdated concepts and often hold prejudice against students who have strong ability to actively adapt to society and social activities. Their standard of "excellent students" is still excellent test scores, simple and steady listening to teachers.
Since the reform and opening up, people's values have become increasingly diversified. Many people no longer regard joining the party and promoting cadres as the only choice for their own development. Many excellent college students believe that as long as they master modern scientific and technological knowledge diligently, they can still have good development opportunities. In this case, college students' party building bears a special historical mission in cultivating innovative socialist builders.
(six) the focus of the investigation is inaccurate, the development orientation is biased, and the number of development is low.
In campus life, there are few opportunities to test the party spirit of the development object on the right and wrong issues. The focus of college students' inspection of joining the party is academic performance and social morality. However, the ranking of test scores and the requirements and beliefs of life plate are not at the same level.
In real life, party member's identity will have a certain impact on college students' job hunting. The low proportion of existing students in party member has a consequence, that is, a considerable number of students party member will apply for or be recommended to party and government organs at all levels after graduation, while the number of party member who go to new economic organizations is decreasing.
Third, 2 1 century student party building work countermeasures
(1) Establish a system to promote and train outstanding students.
1. Striving for Excellence is to select students with outstanding performance in all aspects as the key training objects for the development of party organizations. Under the auspices of the Organization Department of the Party Committee and the Youth League Committee of the school, a working system has been formed to promote league organization, train party branches and restrict the general party branch. The Youth League branch regularly organizes discussions and submits a list of recommended candidates to the Party branch, and determines the key training targets after soliciting opinions from the masses inside and outside the Party and counselors.
Parenting is the key to work. There are still some shortcomings and defects in the selected objects. Education means that the Party organizations strictly demand and re-educate them according to the standards of party member, so that they can make continuous progress and reach the standards of party member. Parenting needs to do the following work:
First of all, we should establish a training team composed of counselors, party activists and party member teachers. They can give guidance to activists joining the Party from different aspects, help them find and solve problems in time, and constantly improve their ideological, professional and theoretical level.
Secondly, constantly improve the parenting mechanism. The method of point-to-surface combination and multi-directional culture can be adopted. On the surface, party constitution study group is the main body, guiding students to learn the basic knowledge of the Party and how to write the application form and ideological summary for joining the Party, educating students to establish a correct outlook on life and the world, correcting the motivation for joining the Party, and studying the Party's line, principles and policies in combination with practice. At the same time, recommend outstanding students to participate in the amateur party school of the college to improve the level of political theory; Require activists to join the youth volunteer service teams of colleges, departments and classes and accept the test of practice.
(B) Dialectically grasp the conditions for joining the Party
In order to increase the proportion of college students' party member, we must dialectically grasp the standard of students' party member. For a long time, the conditions for students to join the party are too harsh, but they lack the means to continue training after joining the party. We advocate: (1) We should grasp the mainstream of the conditions for students to join the party, and do not have to wait for students to perform perfectly in all aspects before developing to join the party. (2) Pay attention to the continuing education and training after joining the Party, so that they can take joining the Party as the starting point of their lifelong struggle according to the requirements of the Party; (3) party member, a student, should have tasks and burdens, exercise himself in student work, set an example for others and serve the masses.
(C) Pay full attention to continuing education in party member.
First, we must do a good job in organizational life. In the past, the theme of organizational life of student party branches was often development work, and there was less meditation on political theory study and ideological exchange. In this way, it is difficult for party member, a student, to further improve his ideological and theoretical level, and his demands on himself may be relaxed. Regular high-quality organizational life is the basic guarantee to improve the combat effectiveness of student party branches.
Second, we should establish a good party style among students in party member. At present, there is a harmonious phenomenon among students in party member, and there is little criticism and self-criticism. It is necessary to gradually reverse this trend by training one party member and one student and strictly controlling related problems in development work.
Third, we must accept the supervision of the masses. After the freshmen enter the school, they should introduce party member to the teachers and students in the department, so as to accept the supervision of the masses, and remind the students that party member always remembers that he is party member and really plays an exemplary role in his study and life.
Reflections on patriotism education of college students under the new situation
"Who to train and how to train people" is a major strategic issue that China's higher education must solve. Comrade Hu Jintao's important speech on establishing the socialist concept of honor and disgrace put forward the clear requirements of "eight honors and eight disgraces". The first one is "proud of loving the motherland and ashamed of endangering the motherland". This is a fundamental problem with strong nationality, times, pertinence and practicality. In particular, it has special guiding significance for contemporary college students to firmly establish patriotism and grow into qualified builders and reliable successors of the cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.
Patriotism is manifested in national self-esteem, self-confidence, pride and the spirit of heroic dedication to the independence and prosperity of the country. As the main position, classroom and channel of college students' ideological and political education, colleges and universities must put the ideological and political education with emphasis on patriotism education in the first place of school education, implement the policy of being close to reality, life and students, and actively explore new contents, new ways, new methods and new mechanisms of patriotic education with innovative thinking in accordance with the requirements of embodying the times, grasping the regularity, being creative and enhancing timeliness, so as to open up the road of educating all college staff.
First of all, patriotism education should be combined with classroom teaching.
Only by knowing how deep, can we love deeply. Deep affection for the great motherland is the first choice to deeply understand the history, national culture and national development of the motherland. Although college students have mastered some knowledge of patriotism, they are still not enough to meet the requirements of becoming talents. Therefore, in the university stage, it is an important content and requirement of the education and teaching process to cultivate college students' patriotic feelings through classroom teaching. Colleges and universities should make an overall plan for patriotism education, strengthen its systematization and planning, and make clear the teaching focus of patriotism education according to the characteristics of each subject and the contents of teaching materials, so as to fully infiltrate patriotism. In particular, modern history education, national conditions education, national culture education, revolutionary tradition education and situation policy education and other teaching courses and lectures should give full play to their respective advantages in patriotism education. Through a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of national conditions and history, we can understand the great and lofty national spirit of the Chinese nation and enhance national self-esteem, self-confidence and pride; In historical comparison, development comparison and comparison between China and the West, it is our inevitable choice to know the leadership of China's * * * production party and the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and to establish and firmly establish the ideals and beliefs of building a modern and powerful country and realizing national rejuvenation.
Second, patriotism education should be combined with social practice.
Compared with middle school students, college students are more inclined to self-education, self-management and self-service. To carry out patriotic education for college students, it is not easy to fully mobilize their enthusiasm only by single classroom education, and social practice activities should also be actively carried out. Social practice plays an irreplaceable role for college students to understand the society and national conditions, increase their talents, cultivate their sentiments, and enhance their patriotic feelings and sense of social responsibility. Colleges and universities should establish a social practice guarantee mechanism for college students, incorporate social practice into the overall planning and syllabus of school education and teaching, stipulate hours and credits, and provide necessary funds. In social practice, college students can further clarify the issues of "who to study for and who to work for" and "what to do and how to be a man", and cultivate their patriotic feelings and sense of social responsibility.
Thirdly, patriotism education should be combined with campus culture construction.
Building a high-grade campus culture that embodies the characteristics of socialism, the times and the school is not only the need of the school's own development and the healthy development of society, but also the need of the all-round development of college students' morality, intelligence, physique and beauty. The construction of campus cultural and humanistic environment should take patriotism as the core, the national spirit of unity, peace-loving, hard struggle, courage and self-improvement as the main theme, the internal growth and self-cultivation of students as the goal, give full play to the role of grassroots party organizations, Communist Youth League organizations, student classes and community organizations, and take various activities such as English model reports, special lectures, literary performances, book reading, school history exhibitions, seminars, photo exhibitions, etc. As well as popular forms such as school motto, school song, school newspaper, school magazine, window, broadcasting, etc., form a multi-level and all-round patriotic education pattern, resist the erosion and influence of harmful culture and decadent lifestyle, and stimulate the patriotic enthusiasm of college students to study hard, abide by the law, love life and be brave in innovation.
Four, patriotism education should be combined with major events at home and abroad.
Facing new opportunities and challenges in the new century, the international and domestic situation is undergoing profound changes. Under the interweaving development of many factors and contradictions, domestic, international and regional events that have a significant impact on people will continue to occur. These foreseeable or unforeseeable major events all involve the interests of those nations and countries, and most of them contain materials for patriotism education and internationalism education. College students are a growing generation of new intellectuals, who are generally highly sensitive and concerned about major events at home and abroad. This necessary and inevitable concern is a manifestation of college students' consciousness. At the same time, it is an unavoidable and necessary ideological and political education for colleges and universities to guide them correctly and seize the opportunity to carry out realistic patriotism education.
Five, patriotism education should be combined with promoting reform and opening up.
The practice of China's reform and opening up for more than 20 years has fully proved that reform and opening up is the road to a strong country. If the country wants to be rich and strong and the nation wants to revitalize, it must implement reform and opening up. Under the new historical conditions, reform and opening up and patriotism are linked and unified. Reform and opening up is the lifeblood of the future of the country and the nation, and it is also an important part of patriotic practice. Therefore, to carry out patriotic education in the new period, we must closely combine the great practice of reform and opening up, promote reform and opening up with patriotic education, and promote patriotic education with reform and opening up.
Six, patriotism education should be combined with the construction of teachers' morality.
College teachers are not only advocates, disseminators and promoters of advanced productive forces and advanced culture, but also guides and guides for the healthy growth of college students. Facing the new situation of patriotism education for college students, we should strengthen the construction of teachers' morality from four aspects: First, we should have the virtue of patriotism and dedication. The second is a trip as a teacher. The third is to have products that keep pace with the times. Fourth, we should respect and love students.
