黨的全面領導

《中國共產黨章程》指出，中國共產黨是中國特色社會主義事業的領導核心。中國共產黨的領導是中國特色社會主義最本質的特征，是中國特色社會主義制度的最大優勢，黨是最高政治領導力量。

中國最大的國情就是中國共產黨的領導。黨的領導是全面的、系統的、整體的。黨中央集中統一領導是黨的領導的最高原則。

黨的全面領導，是黨對改革發展穩定、內政外交國防、治黨治國治軍等國家治理各領域各方面各環節等一切工作的領導，是黨按照總攬全局、協調各方的原則，在同級各種組織中發揮領導核心作用。在國家機關、事業單位、群團組織、社會組織、企業和其他組織中設立的黨委（黨組），接受批準其成立的黨委的統一領導，定期匯報工作，確保黨的方針政策和決策部署在同級組織中得到貫徹落實。
