关于以毛泽东为核心中央领导集体作出三线建设战略决策的回顾和思考

Retrospections and Reflections on“Third- Line- Area Construction”Policy Decided upon by CCCPC Leading Collective with Mao Ze- dong as the Core

20世纪60年代中期,以毛泽东为核心的中共中央领导集体,曾经异乎寻常地作出并雷厉风行地实施过一项重大战略决策,即在中西部地区开展大规模三线建设。关于三线建设的争论由来已久:一是失大于得,二是有得有失,三是得大于失。笔者认为,总的讲这个战略决策基本正确,很有战略眼光;三线建设战略决策的历史和现实意义已为实践所证明,其失误也必须引以为鉴。

During the mid 1960s,the CCCPC leading collective with Mao Ze - dong as the core once extraordinarily de- signed and decided upon a national strategic policy of constructing China＇ s third - line areas （regions in the 13 provinces in Central and Eastern China） ,which was later implemented fast and powerfully. Ever since there has been a widespread dispute over the very policy, from which three kinds of opinion derive, namely, the loss outweighing the gain, the gain balancing the loss, and the gain outweighing the loss. The present paper argues that in general, this national policy is basically right for its strategic insight and historic significance, which has been well proved by practice in China,and that in the meanwhile the re- sulting faults and failures, although few,should be remembered as worth while lessons and precious references to draw on in the future.
