邓小平与毛泽东都认为腐败会对党和国家造成严重危害,但毛泽东倾向于认定腐败分子为带阶级性的党内外敌人,而邓小平却倾向于认定腐败分子为非阶级性的党内敌人。邓小平同意毛泽东关于腐败根源来自封建主义残余影响和外来资产阶级思想侵蚀,但更强调现行政治体制的弊端。邓小平同意毛泽东反腐败要开展党内整风的观点,但反对毛泽东主张的革命性的群众性“大民主”运动,而强调法治,强调体制改革,强调群众监督必须融入法制。第三代领导集体的贡献则是推出“德治”、“法治”结合的伟大战略。 Both Deng Xiaoping and Mao Zedong agreed that corruption would cause serious harm to the party and the country. However, Mao Zedong preferred to identify the corrupt elements as class internal and external enemies, while Deng Xiaoping preferred to identify corrupt elements as non-party enemies within the party. Deng Xiaoping agrees with Mao Zedong about the root causes of corruption stemming from the remnants of feudalism and the erosion of the thinking of the foreign bourgeoisie, but stresses the drawbacks of the current political system. Deng Xiaoping agreed with Mao Zedong’s view that anti-corruption work should be carried out within the party, but opposed the revolutionary “big democracy” movement advocated by Mao Zedong. He emphasized the rule of law and emphasized institutional reform, stressing that the people’s supervision must be integrated into the legal system. The contribution of the third generation of leading collectives is to launch the great strategy of combining “rule of virtue” and “rule of law.”
