舆论宣传和思想意识,作为一种客观存在,是人们社会生活中的重要组成部分;作为精神文明建设的重要内容,对物质文明建设有着巨大的促进作用。小平同志关于社会主义物质文明建设和社会主义精神文明建设“两手抓,两手都要硬”的论断,是对两者地位和作用的科学结论。 As an objective existence, publicity of public opinion and ideological consciousness are important components of people’s social life. As an important part of the construction of spiritual civilization, they have a huge role in promoting the building of material civilization. Comrade Xiaoping’s assertion that the construction of socialist material civilization and the construction of socialist spiritual civilization are “grasping both hands and using both hands hard” is a scientific conclusion on the status and role of both.
