Maintaining the Vigorous and Vigorous Vitality of Marxism: An Era | China | Marxism
Xi Jinping: the Chinese Communists deeply realize that only by combining the basic principles of Marxism with China's specific reality and with China's excellent traditional culture, and persisting in the use of dialectical materialism and historical materialism, can we correctly answer the major questions raised by the times and practice, and always maintain the vigor and vitality of Marxism.
This passage comes from the report of General Secretary Xi Jinping at the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China on October 16, 2022.
Marxism is the scientific truth for understanding and transforming the world, the fundamental guiding ideology for establishing the Party and the country, and the soul and banner of the Party. From Shikumen to Tiananmen, from Xingye Road to Fuxing Road, the history of the CPC leading the people to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is the history of constantly advancing the sinicization and modernization of Marxism.
For example, focusing on areas such as ecological environment, medical security, and business environment, we strive to solve livelihood issues that are closely related to the vital interests of the people, so as to continuously enhance their sense of gain, happiness, and security. In the past decade, the concentration of PM2.5 in China has decreased by 57%, achieving ten consecutive drops; In 2022, the proportion of Class I-III surface water quality sections in China was 87.9%, achieving seven consecutive increases since the 13th Five Year Plan. In the first quarter of this year, the proportion of excellent surface water quality sections in China reached 89.1%; Strictly crack down on fraudulent insurance practices. As of April this year, a total of 3.415 million designated medical institutions have been inspected, and 80.5 billion yuan in medical insurance funds have been recovered; To create a convenient and efficient tax and business environment, 96% of tax and fee matters and 99% of tax declarations can be processed online.
Our party combines the basic principles of Marxism with excellent traditional Chinese culture, continuously promoting the creative transformation and innovative development of excellent traditional culture and values. For example, we organically combine the belief in communism and socialism with the vision of "Great Harmony" and "Moderate Prosperity" of the Chinese nation, as well as the ideal of "cultivating harmony and governing peace" of Confucian predecessors, endowing the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics with a deeper foundation of Chinese civilization; The proposal to promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind and the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" initiative not only draws on the essence of the "world outlook" and the "Silk Road civilization" in Chinese culture, but also enriches and develops the Marxist community ideology. Today, the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind and the "the Belt and Road" initiative have been recognized and widely participated by more and more international organizations and countries.
On the new journey, it is the solemn historical responsibility of the contemporary CPC people to constantly write a new chapter of the sinicization and modernization of Marxism.
