江泽民同志提出中国共产党要“始终成为中国先进社会生产力的发展要求、中国先进文化的前进方向、中国最广大人民群众的根本利益的忠实代表”,这既是对中国共产党的性质、宗旨和任务新的理论概括,又是对党在新形势下自我建设目标提出的要求,它为新时期中国共产党的自身建设指出了总体方向。 Comrade Jiang Zemin proposed that the Chinese Communist Party should “always be the development requirement of China’s advanced social productive forces, the forward direction of China’s advanced culture, and the faithful representation of the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the Chinese people.” This is both a new feature for the nature, purpose and tasks of the Chinese Communist Party Theoretical summation, on the other hand, is also a request for self-construction of the party under the new situation. It points out the general direction of the CPC’s self-construction in the new period.
