党的十六届四中全会在十六大“使社会更加和谐”要求的基础上首次明确提出了构建社会主义和谐社会的理念。这是党中央在科学发展观指导下,基于对国情、民意的深刻洞察而作出的重大部署,是全国人民的呼声和愿望。本文从认识论的角度谈谈对和谐社会构建提出了几点思考。 For the first time, the Fourth Plenary Session of the 16th CPC Central Committee explicitly proposed the concept of building a harmonious socialist society on the basis of the requirements of the 16th CPC National Congress and “making the society more harmonious.” This is a major deployment made by the party Central Committee under the guidance of the scientific development concept and based on profound insights into the national conditions and public opinions and is the voice and aspirations of the people throughout the country. This article from the perspective of epistemology put forward some thoughts on the construction of a harmonious society.
