党内民主是党的生命,集中统一是党的力量保证。这是党的十七届四中全会对党内民主与党内集中辩证关系的全新阐述。认真学习贯彻十七届四中全会对于发展党内民主的新思想和新精神,对于推动现阶段的党内民主发展无疑具有十分重要的意义。 Inner-party democracy is the life of the party and its centralization and unification is the guarantee of the party’s strength. This is a completely new exposition of the dialectical relationship between intra-party democracy and intra-party democracy held at the Fourth Plenary Session of the 17th CPC Central Committee. Studying and carrying out the Fourth Plenary Session of the 17th CPC Central Committee fairly for the development of new ideas and new spirits within the party’s democracy is undoubtedly of great significance in promoting the present-stage inner-party democratic development.
