多年来,人们忽视了一个基本问题,即对思想政治工作本体功能的研究与把握,因而难于彻底清除思想政治工作包打天下与追求急功近利的影响,也无力防止与克服轻视或否定思想政治工作的倾向。任何事物都可能具有多种功能,但只有一种或少数几种,是其所以安身立命的本体功能,为其它事物所不能代替。如军队可以打仗,可以生产,可以抢险救灾等等,然而只有打仗功能是别的社会组织难以替代的,所以社会才不惜花高昂代价建立与供养军队,并且唯恐它弱,唯恐它不足以对付暴力相加的敌人。思想政治工作作为一项专业、一种社会劳动,是社会系统内部分工的产物。它同其它专业、其它劳动和其它工作部门一样,必定有其无法替代的特殊功能,否则,就不能产生、发展或继续独立存在。在当今中国,改革大潮呼唤着强有力的思想政治工作。思想政治工作只有高度重视并强化自我的本体功能,才能再 Over the years, one has neglected the basic issue of studying and grasping the ontological functions of the ideological and political work.
