Since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, the CPC has led the Chinese people to adhere to and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics, successfully walked out of the path of Chinese path to modernization, created a new form of human civilization, and become an important force to promote human development and progress.

The Transcendence of Chinese path to modernization to Western Modernization Model

Chinese path to modernization not only follows the general law of modernization, but also bases itself on China's reality, conforms to China's national conditions, and has Chinese characteristics. Chinese modernization is the modernization of a huge population, the modernization of common prosperity for all, the modernization of material and cultural-ethical advancement, the modernization of harmony between humanity and nature, and the modernization of peaceful development. The essential requirements of Chinese modernization are as follows: upholding the leadership of the Communist Party of China and socialism with Chinese characteristics, pursuing high-quality development, developing whole-process people's democracy, enriching the people's cultural lives, achieving common prosperity for all, promoting harmony between humanity and nature, building a human community with a shared future, and creating a new form of human advancement. This actually covers various aspects such as economy, politics, culture, society, and ecological civilization, providing action guidelines for the comprehensive construction of a socialist modernized country. The Chinese path to modernization is essentially different from the western modernization. The western modernization, which is capital centered modernization, polarization modernization, materialism expansion modernization, and foreign expansion and plunder, can neither be taken nor can be taken.

Chinese path to modernization is a modernization with a huge population, which is more arduous and complex than western modernization. China's population of over 1.4 billion has entered a modern society, with a scale larger than the total population of existing developed countries. The difficulty and complexity are unprecedented, and the development path and promotion method will inevitably have their own characteristics. We are different from the modernization of hundreds of thousands, millions, and millions of people, but rather the modernization of over 1.4 billion people. Our modernization is both the most difficult and the greatest. Because of this, Chinese path to modernization is an unprecedented great initiative in human history. It clearly demonstrates the superiority of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and reveals that modernization in the West is not the only way to modernization, so it has very important world significance.

Chinese path to modernization is the modernization of common prosperity for all people, which transcends the western capital centered modernization and polarization modernization.Some Western countries have long faced problems of wealth disparity and polarization while their social wealth continues to grow. Chinese path to modernization overcomes the drawbacks of capital centered modernization and polarized modernization in the West, adheres to the people centered development idea, and strives to promote the common prosperity of all people, which is the distinctive value background of Chinese path to modernization and occupies the moral high ground to realize the beautiful ideal of mankind.

Chinese path to modernization is a kind of modernization in which material civilization and spiritual civilization are coordinated, and it transcends the expansion of western materialism. Chinese path to modernization adheres to the high degree of unity between promoting common prosperity and promoting people's all-round development, adheres to cultural self-confidence and self-improvement, clearly adheres to the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field, cultivates and practices socialist core values, develops public cultural undertakings, and improves the public cultural service system, which makes the people both materially and mentally rich, helps to constantly meet the people's aspirations for a better life, and promotes the all-round development of people and social progress.

Chinese path to modernization is a kind of modernization in which people and nature coexist in harmony, and it does not follow the old way of western modernization that destroys the ecological environment.

Chinese path to modernization is a modernization that follows the path of peaceful development and does not follow the old modernization path of foreign expansion and plunder of the old Western capitalist countries.

The World Significance and Historical Contribution of Chinese path to modernization

Chinese path to modernization has created a new miracle in the development of human civilization. Since the reform and opening up, we have steadfastly followed the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, creating two miracles: rapid economic development and long-term social stability. Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and China's average contribution rate to world economic growth has always ranked first in the world, becoming increasingly the main driving force and stabilizer of world economic growth.

In terms of ecological civilization construction, China has always maintained a strategic determination to strengthen ecological civilization construction, adhering to green and low-carbon principles, actively and steadily promoting carbon peak and carbon neutrality actions, and striving to build a beautiful China where humans and nature coexist harmoniously. China's weight in the world economy and global governance has rapidly increased, becoming the world's second largest economy, the world's largest industrial country, the world's largest goods trading country, and the world's largest foreign exchange reserve country. Its comprehensive national strength, technological strength, national defense strength, cultural influence, and international influence have significantly improved.

Chinese path to modernization has made great contributions to the cause of poverty reduction in the world. The Chinese population accounts for about one-fifth of the world's total population, and the continuous improvement of the rights of the Chinese people is a significant contribution to the progress of human civilization.Since the reform and opening up, China has embarked on the most magnificent poverty reduction process in human history, lifting 700 million rural impoverished people out of poverty. Poverty reduction accounted for more than 70% of the global poverty reduction population during the same period, creating a miracle in the history of human poverty reduction.

The new achievements of Chinese path to modernization have provided new opportunities for world development. Today, China is increasingly approaching the center of the world stage and playing an increasingly important role in the world. China's development has benefited from the international community, and at the same time, it has implemented a mutually beneficial and win-win opening-up strategy, sharing its own opportunities with countries around the world. While developing itself, it has provided a Chinese solution for optimizing the global governance system, making historic contributions to world economic development and human civilization progress. Looking towards the future, China's determination to maintain world peace will not change, its determination to promote common development of the international community will not change, its determination to build partnerships will not change, and its determination to support multilateralism will not change. China will unswervingly follow the path of peaceful development and continue to move forward courageously on the path of peace and development. The road of Chinese path to modernization not only develops itself, but also benefits the world. It has laid a solid material foundation for the progress of human civilization, and will be more and more extensive.

Chinese path to modernization leads the development direction of human civilization progress

Over the past decade, China has worked together with countries around the world to promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind, providing a Chinese solution to answer the questions of the times.

The CPC has always been committed to maintaining world peace and development, promoting the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind, taking a clear stand against all hegemonism and power politics, promoting the construction of a new type of international relations, and demonstrating the responsibility of a responsible major country. The "the Belt and Road" initiative proposed by China has achieved high-level connectivity and high-quality complementary advantages, and has become a popular international public product and international cooperation platform in the world today. China has contributed Chinese wisdom to global development by promoting the building of a community with a shared future for mankind, jointly building the "the Belt and Road" and building a community of human and natural life.

The world is currently experiencing unprecedented changes, and China actively participates in the reform and construction of the global governance system, promoting the development of the international political and economic order towards a more just and reasonable direction. It has always been a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, and a maintainer of the international order, promoting the common values of all mankind and gathering the spiritual power of human civilization progress.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
