前不久,中共中央召开了思想政治工作会议。这是新中国成立以来第一次由党中央召开的思想政治工作会议。江泽民同志在会上发表了重要讲话,对加强和改进思想政治工作提出了要求。今年是世纪之交.是承前启后的一年,更艰巨、更光荣的任务摆在我们面前。思想政治工作是兵团的优势。兵团在初创时期正是依靠强大的思想政治工作,克服了重重困难,创造了世界屯垦“神话”。在国际社会正在发生深刻变化、中国正在进行完善和发展社会主义制度的自我变革的今天,兵团如何切实加强和改进思想政治工作,充分发挥“三个队”、“四个力量”的作用,更好地履行“屯垦戍边”的历史使命,是我们每一位党员干部、职工群众不能不认真思考的问题。加强和改进思想政治工作,必须充分认识思想政治工作的重要性和艰巨性。江泽民同志指出: Not long ago, the CPC Central Committee held a meeting on ideological and political work.
