改革开放以后,随着经济转轨和社会转型的深入,中国社会结构朝多元化发展,中国共产党执政的群众基础也发生了巨大变化。我们党要长期执政并且执好政,必须保持与人民群众的血肉联系,打好坚固的群众基础。正如胡锦涛主席所讲:“人心向背,是决定一个政党、一个政权盛衰的根本因素1”。 After the reform and opening up, with the deepening of economic transition and social transformation, the social structure of China has been diversified and great changes have taken place in the mass foundation of the CPC. As our party has to govern for a long time and be good at governing affairs, our party must maintain its flesh-and-blood ties with the masses of the people and lay a solid mass foundation. As President Hu Jintao put it, “People’s heart is the fundamental factor that determines the rise and fall of a political party and a political power.”
