　　Xin Ming (Professor of Central Party School)

　　The five years since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China have been extraordinary in the development of the Party and the country. Comrade Supreme Leader pointed out in the report of the 19th National Congress that after long-term efforts, Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, which is a new historical orientation for China’s development. Focusing on what kind of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and how to adhere to and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, our party has formed the supreme leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era through arduous theoretical exploration, which provides a guide for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. This newspaper invited three representatives and scholars to interpret the spiritual essence and rich connotation of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era.

　　Moderator: In the new era, Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought clearly adheres to and develops Socialism with Chinese characteristics. The overall task is to realize socialist modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. On the basis of building a well-off society in an all-round way, we will build a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modernization power in the middle of this century in two steps. How to understand the strategic arrangement of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s development in the new era?

　　Wang Hansong:The strategic arrangement of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s development in the new era is based on our party’s initial intention and mission, and our party’s confidence in Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s road, theory, system and culture, which is also the necessity of history and reality. At present, our Party unites and leads the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country to make unremitting efforts, and leads Socialism with Chinese characteristics into a new era, which makes us closer, more confident and capable of realizing the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history.

　　Peng Xiaochun:Our party’s initial intention and mission is to seek happiness for the people of China and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation. After long-term efforts, Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and China’s development is in a new historical position. From the 19th National Congress to the 20th National Congress, it is the historical intersection of the goal of "two hundred years". The strategic arrangement of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s development in the new era is an inevitable requirement to realize the Party’s historical mission.

　　Xin Ming:Building a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modernization power in the middle of this century in two steps is an important strategic arrangement made by Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and it is the persistence and development of the "three-step" strategic goal put forward after China’s reform and opening up. Persistence is reflected in the goal of China’s social modernization, and development is reflected in the improvement of the standards of China’s social modernization.

　　First of all, the goal of basically realizing socialist modernization is advanced to 2035, and by the middle of this century, the standard of the goal of the second node will become to build a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modernization power, and the content will be more comprehensive. This fully embodies the lofty character of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, which is brave in taking responsibility and self-pressuring.

　　Moderator: Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the New Era makes it clear that the main contradiction in our society in the new era is the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development. How to understand this new judgment and exposition of the main contradiction in current society? How to solve the problem of insufficient development imbalance?

　　Peng Xiaochun:In different historical periods, different social forms and different stages of the same social form, the main social contradictions are completely different. As a Marxist political party that keeps pace with the times, our party should make scientific judgments on major social contradictions in a timely manner according to the characteristics of the times.

　　Xin Ming:The major contradiction in our society has been transformed into the contradiction between the people’s growing needs for a better life and the unbalanced development, which is a profound grasp and scientific response to the staged characteristics of Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

　　"People’s growing need for a better life" is mainly manifested in the fact that China is about to build a well-off society in an all-round way, and the people’s need for a better life is increasingly extensive, which not only puts forward higher requirements for material and cultural life, but also grows in economic, political, cultural, social and ecological aspects. However, "unbalanced and insufficient development" shows that although China’s social productivity level has improved significantly on the whole, and social productivity has entered the forefront of the world in many aspects, there are still many aspects that are still relatively backward or even the gap is still relatively large. The regional imbalance, content imbalance and group imbalance of development objectively exist, and the relatively low level, instability and unsustainable state of development objectively exist. This contrast has become more prominent after Socialism with Chinese characteristics entered a new era, and if it can’t be solved well, it will seriously affect Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s new leap. However, it is impossible to deal with this contradiction overnight, and it will not be done once and for all for a long time. Because the change of social principal contradiction is a historical change that affects the overall situation, we need to make fundamental changes from macro to micro, from strategy to tactics, from concept to system, make strategic planning from the height of promoting people’s all-round development and social progress, and make countermeasures from the height of promoting shared development and realizing common prosperity.

　　Wang Hansong:From the perspective of demand, from food and clothing to a well-off society to a well-off society in an all-round way, the people have put forward higher and newer demands for development; From the perspective of supply, China’s social productive forces have improved significantly on the whole, and the social productive capacity has entered the forefront of the world in many aspects. The more prominent problem is the insufficient development imbalance, which has become the main constraint to meet the people’s growing needs for a better life.

　　In addition, the report also puts forward two "must realize": first, it must be realized that the changes in the main contradictions in our society are historical changes that have a bearing on the overall situation and put forward many new requirements for the work of the party and the state; Second, we must realize that the changes in the main contradictions in our society have not changed our judgment on the historical stage of socialism in China, the basic national conditions that China is still in the primary stage of socialism and its international status as the largest developing country in the world has not changed. These two "must be recognized" tell the "change" and "unchanged" of the main contradictions in our society in the new era. "Change" refers to the change of major social contradictions from low-level contradiction between supply and demand to high-level contradiction between supply and demand, from "quantity shortage" contradiction between supply and demand to "quality shortage" contradiction between supply and demand, and the overall change of many contradictions caused by it; "Invariance" means that from a longer historical dimension and a broader world dimension, the changes in the main contradictions in our society are not enough to change the historical stage of our socialism — — The basic national conditions in the primary stage of socialism and the international status of the world’s largest developing country.

　　Peng Xiaochun:We should base ourselves on the basic national conditions and the greatest reality of the primary stage of socialism, grasp the changing characteristics of major social contradictions, unswervingly adhere to the party’s basic line, adhere to economic construction as the center, adhere to the four cardinal principles, persist in reform and opening up, and make every effort to build a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modernization power; On the basis of continuing to promote development, we should make overall plans to promote the overall layout of the "Five in One" and coordinate the promotion of the "Four Comprehensive" strategic layout, focus on solving the outstanding problem of insufficient development imbalance, vigorously improve the quality and efficiency of development, and better promote the all-round development of people and the all-round progress of society.

　　Moderator: the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics. In the new era, how to build the party into a Marxist ruling party that is always in the forefront of the times, wholeheartedly supported by the people, brave in self-revolution, able to withstand all kinds of storms and tests, and full of vitality?

　　Xin Ming:The lofty historical mission and grand strategic goal put forward higher requirements for the Communist Party of China (CPC). We must constantly strengthen the construction of the party’s advanced nature and purity, Do not forget your initiative mind, keep in mind the mission and build the Communist Party of China (CPC) into the greatest political party in the world; We should constantly strengthen the Party’s political leadership, ideological leadership, mass organization and social appeal, and build the Communist Party of China (CPC) into the most powerful political party in the world.

　　The most fundamental thing of a great political party is the greatness of the tenet of socialist belief and the greatness of ideals and beliefs, which requires putting the party’s political construction in the first place, demonstrating greatness and practicing greatness in the self-revolution; A strong political party should have creativity, cohesion and fighting capacity, which comes from discipline, system and rules. We should strictly observe discipline and rules, and let the system run through the whole process of party building. At the same time, we should strengthen our study, improve our skills, make political awareness and work skills complement each other, and effectively improve the party’s long-term ruling ability.

　　Wang Hansong:Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era. If the Party wants to unite and lead the people in a great struggle, advance a great cause and realize a great dream, it must unswervingly uphold and improve the Party’s leadership and unswervingly build the Party stronger. This requires arming the whole party with Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, which is the premise and foundation. Adhere to the problem orientation, maintain strategic strength, and promote the comprehensive and strict development of the party, which is the key and core. Taking the people as the center and comprehensively enhancing the party’s ruling ability and leadership level are the starting point and the end result.

　　No matter what kind of theory, it must be combined with reality in order to glow with vitality. In concrete practice, we should grasp the general trend of the times, conform to people’s expectations, enhance our learning skills, political leadership skills, reform and innovation skills, scientific development skills, etc., and make unremitting efforts to realize people’s yearning for a better life.

　　 Peng Xiaochun:To comprehensively strengthen party building, first, we should focus on the primary task of party political construction, ensure that the whole party obeys the central authorities, and uphold the authority of the Party Central Committee and centralized and unified leadership. Second, we should focus on the combination of ideological party building and institutional party building. We should arm the whole Party with Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era and take firm ideals and beliefs as the primary task of the Party’s ideological construction. Third, efforts should be made to strengthen the capacity building of leading bodies and comprehensively enhance their ruling skills. Fourth, efforts should be made to strengthen the construction of work style. We should closely focus on maintaining the flesh-and-blood ties between the Party and the people, constantly build the mass base of the Party’s governance, continue to rectify the "four winds" problem, resolutely correct all kinds of unhealthy trends, and constantly enhance the Party’s ability of self-purification, self-improvement, self-innovation and self-improvement. Fifth, efforts should be made to consolidate the overwhelming situation of the anti-corruption struggle. Adhere to corruption and greed, make good use of the sword of inspection, intensify efforts to rectify corruption around the masses, and form a powerful deterrent.
