延安时期党非常重视理论学习,在全党发动了马克思主义理论的学习运动。针对党内一些同志对理论学习的轻视以及学习上的盲目性,党的领导同志在各种场合,从不同角度对理论学习的意义和方法进行了大量论述。他们指出:理论学习必须发扬“挤”和“钻”两种精神;必须善于联系实际进行独立思考;必须有计划性,长期坚持下去;必须学习社会科学和自然科学知识。 During the Yanan period, the party attached great importance to theoretical study and launched a learning movement of Marxist theory throughout the party. In response to the contempt of some comrades in the Party for theoretical study and the blindness in their studies, the party’s leading comrades have made extensive expositions on the significance and methods of theoretical study from different angles on various occasions. They pointed out: Theoretical study must carry forward the two kinds of spirits of “squeezing” and “drilling.” They must be good at associating with each other and thinking independently. They must have a plan and persevere in the long run. They must learn social science and natural science knowledge.
