Thoroughly understanding Hồ Chí Minh’s thought to enhance the Party’s mass mobilization work in the new era

Abstract: Hồ Chí Minh’s thought on mass mobilization, an integral part of his overall ideology, is not only a theoretical foundation but also a guiding principle for the Communist Party of Vietnam’s mass mobilization work throughout the revolutionary stages over the past 95 years. This has resulted in remarkable achievements and built a glorious tradition. Entering the new era, amid the profound impacts of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and globalization, along with major transformations in the economic, cultural, and social spheres, thoroughly understanding and creatively applying Hồ Chí Minh’s thought, while continuing to innovate and improve the quality and effectiveness of the Party’s mass mobilization work, holds special significance. It contributes to strengthening the close relationship between the Party and the people, advancing national renewal, and realizing the goal of a prosperous and happy nation.
