Background

Since the early 1980s, Deng Xiaoping has repeatedly proposed that we must maintain "the political situation of domestic stability and unity". As early as March 8, 1987, when Deng Xiaoping received the foreign guests, he pointed out that to maintain "the political situation of domestic stability and unity", "to lead in an orderly manner socialist construction ”Is one of the important conditions for realizing the "three-step development strategy". On June 29, 1987, he also pointed out that "there is no stability and unity Political environment Nothing can be done. "
In February 1989, Deng Xiaoping met with the President of the United States Bush He pointed out that "China's problem, above all, requires stability. Without a stable environment, nothing can be achieved and the achievements already made will be lost."

On December 24, 1990, he stressed: "I have said more than once that stability prevails and the people's democratic dictatorship cannot be lost." After the emergence of the third generation of the central collective leadership of the Party, "stability", "reform" and "development" have become more important in China's reform, opening up and Socialist Modernization Drive Consider the three organically integrated components of the cause: stability is the prerequisite, reform is the driving force, and development is the goal.
Deng Xiaoping stood at the height of historical development and regarded stability as strategic thinking It is still enlightening in 2009.
After the emergence of the third generation of the central collective leadership of the Party, "reform", "development" and "stability" are considered as three integral parts of China's reform and opening up and the socialist modernization drive: stability is the prerequisite, reform is the driving force, and development is the goal. A new generation with Comrade Hu Jintao as General Secretary Party leadership The collective sublimates "stability" into building a socialist harmonious society. The essence of the theory of a harmonious society is to analyze, understand and solve contradictions and problems in social development with a scientific attitude and method, and fundamentally maintain long-term social stability.
It can be seen that since the reform and opening up, the problem of stability has always been central government Of objective function It occupies an important and even decisive weight. For the central government rulers, its effectiveness stems from "stability" and "development". When dealing with the relationship between the two, "stability" is always the overall situation and the premise. This is because the rulers utility function The most important dependent variable It is the maximization of political support, or to achieve social stability in the ruling cycle as far as possible. Once there is an abnormal alternation of power, such as economic growth, it will become meaningless for the rulers.

To test the achievements of a region or a leading cadre, we should not only see the economic growth, but also the social stability.

We should always unify the strength of reform, the speed of development and the degree that society can bear. We should take continuous improvement of people's lives as an important combination point to handle the relationship between reform, development and stability. We should promote reform and development in social stability and promote social stability through reform and development. The more reform Development tasks The more onerous, the better to handle reform, development and stability Three relationships The more we need to maintain social stability. Only in this way can we concentrate on construction and concentrate on development, properly deal with new situations and problems, and firmly grasp the initiative to accelerate development. [2-4]
