The spirit of the Zunyi Meeting
To summarize the lessons learned by the military command during the Red Army's counter-campaign against the fifth "encirclement and suppression" launched by the Chiang Kai-shek regime, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held an enlarged meeting in Zunyi, Guizhou Province. The meeting established Mao Zedong's leadership in the Red Army and the CPC Central Committee, and marked the formation of the first-generation collective leadership of the CPC represented by Mao Zedong.
It was a historic meeting and a turning point in CPC history. It defined the Party's approach of integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with the Chinese context, taking a path of independence, following the correct political line, tactics, and policies, and building a firm and mature central collective leadership. The success of the Zunyi Meeting relied on firm convictions, a realistic approach, pursuit of independence, the courage to blaze new trials, democracy, and unity.
遵义会议精神
为了总结第五次反“围剿”的西征军事指挥上的经验教训,1935年1月,中共中央政治局在遵义召开了扩大会议,史称遵义会议。遵义会议确立了毛泽东在红军和中共中央的领导地位,开始形成以毛泽东为代表的中共第一代中央领导集体。
作为中共历史上一次具有伟大转折意义的重要会议,遵义会议在把马克思主义基本原理同中国具体实际相结合、坚持走独立自主道路、坚定正确的政治路线和政策策略、建设坚强成熟的中央领导集体等方面,留下了宝贵经验和重要启示,形成了遵义会议精神,即坚定信念、实事求是、独立自主、敢闯新路、民主团结的精神。
