江泽民同志提出的“三个代表”包含着丰富而深刻的科学思想内涵。从理论渊源上看 ,历史唯物主义是“三个代表”的哲学理论基础。从哲学世界观和方法论的高度深刻领会“三个代表”的思想内涵和精神实质 ,有利于增强我们坚持和实践“三个代表”的自觉性。 The “three represents” advanced by Comrade Jiang Zemin contain rich and profound connotations of scientific ideas. From a theoretical point of view, historical materialism is the philosophical foundation of the “three represents.” Profoundly understanding the ideological content and spiritual essence of the “three represents” from the perspective of the philosophical world outlook and methodology is conducive to enhancing our awareness of upholding and implementing the “three represents.”
