党的十七大明确提出了新时期深化干部人事制度改革民主、公开、竞争、择优的八字方针,党的十七届四中全会和中央《2010—2020年深化干部人事制度改革规划纲要》重申了这一方针,这是我们党对近年来选人用人生动实践的科学归纳和高度概括。把握这一方针,对于克服和防止选人用人上的不正之风,建设高素质干部队伍,提高干部工作科学化水平,具有十分重要的意义。 The 17th CPC National Congress explicitly proposed the eight-character principle of deepening democratic, open, competitive and merit-based reform of the cadre and personnel system in the new era. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 17th CPC Central Committee and the “Outline for the Plan for Deepening the Reform of the Cadre and Personnel System 2010-2020” This principle is the scientific summary and high-level summary made by our party toward the vivid practice of selecting and employing people in recent years. To grasp this guideline is of great significance in overcoming and preventing the unhealthy tendencies in the selection and employment of personnel, in building a cadre team of high quality and in improving the scientific level of cadre work.
