在党的群众路线理论里,“群众”概念多是以抽象和泛指出现,但在具体实践中,“群众”的内涵边界往往并不清晰,需要具体情况具体分析。本文旨在从方法论角度,结合实际,对什么是群众、如何做群众工作等基本问题进行探讨,并就提高群众路线教育实践活动实效性提出建议。 In the theory of the mass line of the Party, the concept of “mass” is mostly based on abstraction and generalization. However, in practice, the connotation boundaries of “mass” are often not clear and need to be analyzed concretely. The purpose of this article is to explore the basic issues of methodology, such as the reality, what is the mass and how to do mass work, and make suggestions on how to improve the effectiveness of the mass line education practice.
