The Amendment to the Constitution Is Conducive to Understanding It More Rationally

The inclusion of this theoretical exploration in the General Principles of China’s Constitution will play an important role in helping the people understand the great significance of CPC’s leadership.

A socialist country advocates the people running the country, so the country must be governed by a party that does not seek its own gain but the interests of the people and the country’s nature of socialist system cannot be changed, with the people as the masters of their own destiny. The CPC is precisely an advanced party of this kind, serving the interests of the great majority of the people, striving to build China into a great modern socialist country, and linking its leadership closely to the destiny of the people as well as the future of the nation. Mao Zedong pointed out, “The Communist Party of China is the leadership core of the nation, otherwise, socialism would not be successful.” In the early days of the reform and opening up, Deng Xiaoping declared, “China must be led by the Communist Party, and the construction of modern socialist country also must be led by the Communist Party. This principle must be unwavering. Otherwise, China would slip backwards into secession and chaos, and modernization will not be achieved.”

General Secretary Xi Jinping’s analysis of “The defining feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the leadership of the Communist Party of China” deeply demonstrates the inner coherence of CPC’s leadership and socialism with Chinese characteristics. The move is also a theoretical innovation combing the fundamental principle of scientific socialism and the reality of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The inclusion of this theoretical exploration in the General Principles of China’s Constitution will play an important role in helping the people understand the great significance of CPC’s leadership.
