Zedong and the revolutionary struggle practice after joining the Communist Party laid the foundation for the formation of his cadre education thought.The cadre education work of Li Weihan closely revolved around the revolutionary and construction tasks of the Party in different periods to cultivate talents,so with the change of the revolutionary and construction tasks of the Party,the cadre education practice of Li Weihan also kept pace with The Times.In terms of ideology,Li Weihan had a clear understanding of the relationship between education and politics,and put forward the idea that
