11. Implement the Scientific Outlook on Development into all aspects of economic and social development
To establish and implement the Scientific Outlook on Development, we must adhere to the integration of theory and practice, and integrate the requirements of the Scientific Outlook on Development into all aspects of work in accordance with local conditions and timely conditions. The Scientific Outlook on Development reveals the universal laws of development and has important guiding significance for the whole country. All regions and departments must conscientiously implement it. At the same time, we must fully consider the development differences and situations between regions and departments, insist on proceeding from reality in everything, and take focused and step-by-step measures based on actual conditions and development needs. We cannot insist on uniformity, one-size-fits-all, and one-size-fits-all. The key is to implement the Scientific Outlook on Development in light of one's own actual situation, focus on resolving outstanding contradictions and problems in one's own development, and promote the development of various undertakings faster and better.

Social atmosphere is an important symbol of social civilization and a concentrated expression of social value orientation. Establishing a good social atmosphere is the strong desire of the broad masses of the people and an inevitable requirement for smooth economic and social development. In our socialist society, the boundaries between right and wrong, good and evil, beauty and ugliness must not be blurred. We must have a clear-cut stand for what we insist on, what we oppose, what we advocate, and what we resist. We must vigorously promote patriotism, collectivism, and socialist ideas throughout society, advocate basic socialist moral norms, strengthen righteousness and eliminate evil, promote good and punish evil, and promote the formation and development of good social atmosphere.

Implementing the Scientific Outlook on Development is a systematic project that not only involves all aspects of economic and social development, but also involves the complex relationship between economic activities, social activities and nature, and the interaction between humans, the economic and social environment, and the natural environment. This requires us to use systematic scientific methods to analyze and solve problems, and to study the large systems of economic and social development, social forms, and natural forms from multiple factors, levels, and aspects. We must not only further clarify the connotation of the Scientific Outlook on Development from scientific theory, but also determine the specific requirements for implementing the Scientific Outlook on Development in various fields of economic and social development from the aspects of scientific basic and applied research, various disciplinary research, and interdisciplinary research. It is necessary to coordinate and integrate knowledge, methods, and means from all aspects of natural sciences, humanities, and social sciences, constantly understand and grasp the objective laws of social development, conduct thorough scientific explanations of the Scientific Outlook on Development, and provide a solid scientific theoretical basis for the Scientific Outlook on Development.
