People’s Liberation Army Daily called for proactive guidance of the public’s view of war to ensure “the masses, the party, and armed forces maintain a high degree of unity in terms of ideology.” “The Public’s view of war" is an awareness that the masses can widely influence the public’s general knowledge and basic attitude toward war. “Particularly in national defense education activities, the Marxist view of war is an important component to be explained and spread in a comprehensive systematic and lively manner, to help the public have a more scientific knowledge and attitude on war activities, so as to lay a solid foundation for further improvement of the quality of national defense, and for curbing and winning future wars.”
