Three fine traditions of the party

The three fine styles of the Party are the three fine traditions of the Party, namely, the style of integrating theory with practice, the style of close contact with the people and the style of criticism and self-criticism. The style of integrating theory with practice is the style of combining the basic principles of Marxism-Leninism with the concrete practice of China Revolution, proceeding from reality and seeking truth from facts. The style of keeping close contact with the masses means that Party organizations at all levels and party member cadres should unite with the masses inside and outside the Party, keep close relations between the Party and the masses, and do everything for the masses and never divorce themselves from them for a moment. Criticism and self-criticism are scientific methods to correctly handle and effectively solve contradictions within the party, overcome shortcomings and correct mistakes.

This was put forward by Comrade Mao Zedong in his political report "On Coalition Government" at the Seventh National Congress of the Party. Because it is of great significance to party building now and in the future, it is also called the three fine traditions of the party.
