Focus on improving the quality and efficiency of military theoretical research
2025-10-30
Advanced military theory is the ideological weapon that guides war correctly. Whoever is superior in military theory innovation is more likely to seize the opportunity to win. In the new situation, efforts should be made to focus on research objects, paradigm innovation, and supporting systems in conducting military theory research, continuously improving the quality and efficiency of results transformation, and consolidating the theoretical foundation for winning modern wars. Focus on selecting the right questions for the battle. Military theory research should adhere to the principles of facing the battlefield, facing the troops, and facing the future, identifying the real research objects, and truly enabling the "supply side" of military theory to accurately connect with the "demand side" of building a strong military. One is to adhere to the combination of system and focus. Emphasis is placed on system planning, compiling a list of content that needs to be researched to ensure coverage of various fields such as warfare, construction, preparedness, and governance, linking strategic, operational, and tactical levels, and connecting various stages of combat preparation and implementation to prevent missing items and ensure the comprehensiveness of the system; We should also pay attention to highlighting key points, especially in response to urgent needs on the front line of struggle, urgent needs for combat readiness training, urgent needs for military construction, and urgent expectations of grassroots officers and soldiers. We should prioritize and focus on research, and use points to lead and radiate theoretical research in other fields. The second is to adhere to the combination of foundation and application. Prevent profit oriented tendencies, allocate research resources reasonably, scientifically invest material funds, and ensure maximum combat effectiveness is generated with limited resources. Take targeted measures to strengthen basic research in key areas such as new domains and new quality forces through policy incentives, resource allocation, and reward incentives, ensuring a solid foundation for basic research and providing strong support for the high-quality transformation of applied research. Thirdly, we must adhere to the combination of theory and practice. We should combine the basic principles of Marxism with the practice of building the people's army, draw on the essence of Chinese traditional military culture, focus on the characteristics and laws of future wars, determine the direction of attack and research, research projects and research lists, earnestly study and analyze all elements, and make solid theoretical preparations for "being able to fight and win". Focus on upgrading the paradigm. With the rapid development of the new military revolution, the interdisciplinary characteristics have become more apparent, and the emergence of collective wisdom has become more prominent. Military theory research should keep up with the times and the situation, and accelerate the transformation and upgrading of research paradigms. Firstly, explore the collaborative research and development model. For research that requires massive practical data support, with researchers as the core, complete data analysis, iterative deduction, and other work; Supported by military officers and soldiers, complete data collection, material provision and other work, and cooperate to form research results. For topics involving military and civilian participation, establish cooperation mechanisms with relevant military and civilian units, gather high-quality forces and resources, and jointly complete research tasks. Secondly, take the path of technology empowerment. Not only should we strengthen the integration of science and technology, drive theoretical research with technological innovation, and use theoretical research to drive the "secondary creation" of technological applications, so that theory and technology can be deeply integrated and internally coupled; We also need to strengthen the introduction of technology, make good use of traditional methods such as research, analysis, deduction, and induction to carry out theoretical research, and actively adopt advanced technological means such as digital twin, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing to promote the innovation and upgrading of research paradigms. Once again, create a strong atmosphere for public research. We should enrich the activity carriers, widely carry out annual military theory research, mass military theory innovation and other activities, and stimulate the enthusiasm of the vast number of officers and soldiers to engage in research. To strengthen resource sharing, some theoretical research results should be shared with the military through professional forums, thematic discussions, online platforms, and other carriers, while meeting confidentiality requirements. Focus on efficient and strong support. To improve the quality and efficiency of military theoretical research, it is necessary to smooth and perfect the entire chain of "system design, process management, and transformation and application", and increase the combat effectiveness contribution rate of research results. We should make good use of policy and institutional stabilizers. Focus on key aspects such as demand demonstration, planning, implementation, final acceptance, and achievement transformation, and do a good job in system design and specific norms. Set up a benchmark for practical application, seeking truth and innovation, and deep exploration and research in the system, pay attention to identifying deficiencies in system implementation and specific operation, and improve and rectify them in a targeted manner to better serve and ensure theoretical research. We should make good use of organizational management as a multiplier. Clarify responsibilities at all levels, establish a work pattern with clear rights and responsibilities and efficient operation, and adopt "one type, one policy" management measures for different types of research topics: basic research should maintain the stability of management measures, aiming to smoothly output results; Applied research should highlight the flexibility of management measures, aiming to connect the transformation chain; Cross disciplinary research aims to enhance the diversity of management measures and form a cohesive force as a whole. We should make good use of the "converter" for inspection and utilization. Pay attention to closing the "verification, application, and repair" loop, forming a virtuous cycle of theory entering practice and practice improving theory: in terms of inspection and verification, distinguish theoretical research categories, flexibly adopt verification methods, and ensure that the results meet quality standards; In promoting applications, research results can be documented and embedded into practice through designated usage, application distribution, platform sharing, and other methods; In terms of feedback and revision, regularly collect opinions and suggestions from the units using the results and the vast number of officers and soldiers, organize timely revisions, and ensure that theoretical research results keep pace with the times and continuously improve.
