A. Kosinets: the ideologist's task is to reach every person and help solve their problems
October 27, Vitebsk / Diana Kurilo - BELTA /. The ideologist's task is to reach every person, find out what concerns them, and help solve problems. This point of view was expressed today at a meeting of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee by its Chairman Alexander Kosinets. Ideological work in labor collectives became the main topic of the meeting, reports BELTA correspondent.
Ideology plays an important role in shaping the image of power and public opinion, which is why the work of the ideological vertical is so significant, emphasized the chairman of the regional executive committee. There are over 8,000 enterprises and organizations of various forms of ownership operating in the region. 1.1 thousand people work in the ideological sphere, of which 950 people are in enterprises, organizations, and educational institutions. The solution of socio-economic tasks facing labor collectives largely depends on their activities. "In order to solve the set tasks, ideologists need to reach every person, to know what concerns people," he stressed.
The chairman of the regional executive committee considers it unacceptable when information and propaganda groups visit labor collectives and limit themselves to giving lectures or reading newspaper articles about the situation in the economic and social spheres. "Information and propaganda groups must react quickly and solve the pressing problems of people voiced at these meetings," the governor emphasized.
Alexander Kosinets considers public organizations - trade unions, BRSM, veteran and women's organizations - to be the support of ideological work. At the same time, the activities of trade unions and the youth organization are criticized by the chairman of the regional executive committee. For example, at enterprises such as "Vityaz" and "KIM", out of 2,000 young people, only 2% are members of the BRSM. Alexander Kosinets believes that youth leaders should more actively defend the interests of youth in labor collectives. Veterans of labor should not be ignored either.

The media play an important role in ideological work. According to the chairman of the regional executive committee, many of them lack constructive critical materials. "By silencing a problem, we give others a reason to talk. Ideology is a subtle tool of management that must be used correctly," emphasized Alexander Kosinets.
