Socialist Political Advancement with Chinese Characteristics
The path of socialist political advancement with Chinese characteristics is the logical outcome of the evolution of history, theory, and practice as the Chinese people have long engaged in struggles since the advent of modern times. It is a requisite for maintaining the very nature of the Party and fulfilling its fundamental purpose.
No two political systems are entirely the same, and a political system cannot be judged in abstraction without regard for its social and political context, its history, and its cultural traditions. No one political system should be regarded as the only choice; and we should not just mechanically copy the political systems of other countries.
The key features of this process comprise Party leadership, the running of the country by the people, and law-based governance. It is informed by continued efforts to improve the system of people’s congresses, multiparty cooperation and political consultation, regional ethnic autonomy, and community-level self-governance. Its objective is to steadily improve and develop the socialist political system.
We must make steady long-term efforts to strengthen China’s socialist democracy, and make active and prudent efforts to reform the political system and improve the institutions, standards, and procedures of socialist democracy. We should ensure that people participate, in accordance with the law and in various ways and forms, in the management of state, economic, cultural, and social affairs, and we should consolidate and enhance political stability, unity, and vitality.
