党的十五大报告指出:“反对腐败是关系党和国家生死存亡的严重斗争”,“如果腐败得不到有效惩治,党就会丧失人民群众的信任和支持”。这是我们党在新的历史条件下对反腐败斗争的科学结论。这个论断立足社会主义初级阶段的实际,从战略和全局的高度,深刻阐明了在改革开放和现代化建设过程中反对腐败的极端重要性和紧迫性。 The report of the 15th National Party Congress pointed out: “Opposing corruption is a serious struggle that affects the survival of the party and the country.” “If corruption can not be effectively punished, the party will lose the trust and support of the people.” This is the scientific conclusion of our party’s struggle against corruption under the new historical conditions. This thesis bases itself on the actual situation in the primary stage of socialism and profoundly expounds on the extreme importance and urgency of fighting corruption in the process of reform and opening up as well as the modernization drive from a strategic and overall perspective.
