Peaceful Coexistence. We will oppose hegemonism and power politics and promote

the establishment of a fair and rational new international political and

economic order. In handling international affairs, we should observe and cope

with the situation cool-headedly, adhere to the principle of mutual respect and

seek common ground while shelving differences. We need to respect the diversity

of the world, promote democracy in international relations and strive for a

peaceful international environment and a good climate in areas around China.







　　10. Strengthen and improve the Party's leadership and propel the new great

project of Party building. To run the state well, we must run the Party well

first. To do this, we must be strict with the Party members. We must maintain

the Party's nature and purposes, strengthen and improve Party building in the

spirit of reform, enhance the Party's art of leadership and governance, increase

its capability of fighting corruption and guarding against degeneration and

risks and make unremitting efforts to combatcorruption. The Party must keep its

flesh-and-blood ties with the people as well as its progressiveness, purity,

solidarity and unity.







　　The above-mentioned ten principles constitute the basic experience the Party

must follow as it leads the people in building socialism with Chinese

characteristics. This experience and the historical" title="a.历史(上)的">historical experience gained by the

Party since its founding can be summarized as follows: Our Party must always

represent the development trend of China's advanced productive forces, the

orientation of China's advanced culture and the fundamental interests of the

overwhelming majority of the Chinese people. They are the inexorable

requirements for maintaining and developing socialism and the logical conclusion

our Party has reached through hard exploration and great practice. 　　











　　II. Implement the Important Thought of Three Represents in an All-Round Way 　　









　　To open up new prospects for the cause of socialism with Chinese

characteristics, we must hold high the great banner of Deng Xiaoping Theory and

implement the important thought of Three Represents. As a continuation and

development of Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought and Deng Xiaoping Theory,

this important thought reflects new requirements for the work of the Party and

state arising from the changes in China and other parts of the world today. It

is a powerful theoretical weapon for strengthening and improving Party building

and promoting self-improvement and development of socialism in China. It is the

crystallization of the Party's collective wisdom and a guiding ideology the

Party must follow for a long time to come. Persistent implementation of the

"Three Represents" is the foundation for building our Party, the cornerstone for

its governance and the source of its strength.







　　The important thought of Three Represents has been put forward on the basis of

a scientific judgment of the Party's historical" title="a.历史(上)的">historical position. Having gone through

the revolution, reconstruction and reform, our Party has evolved from a party

that led the people in fighting for state power to a party that has led the

people in exercising the power and has long remained in power. It has developed

from a party that led national reconstruction under externalblockade and a

planned economy to a party that is leading national development while the

country is opening to the outside world and developing a socialist market

economy. Keeping in mind the past, present and future of China and other parts

of the world, we must accuratelycomprehend the characteristics of the times and

the Party's tasks, scientifically formulate and correctlyimplement the Party's

line, principles and policies, and study and settle questions concerning the

promotion of China's social progress and the improvement of Party building. We

should neither approach questions out of their historical" title="a.历史(上)的">historical context nor lose our

bearings, and we should neither fall behind the times nor skip the stages, so as

to ensure that our cause will advance from victory to victory.







　　The implementation of the important thought of Three Represents is, in

essence, to keep pace with the times, maintain the Party's progressiveness and

exercise the state power in the interest of the people. All Party members must

be keenly aware of this basic requirement and become more conscious and

determined in implementing this important thought.







　　1. To carry out the important thought of Three Represents, the whole Party

must maintain the spirit of keeping pace with the times and blaze new trails for

the development of the Marxist theory. Upholding the Party's ideological line,

emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts and keeping pace with the times

are decisive factors for our Party to retain its progressiveness and enhance its

creativity. Keeping pace with the times means that all the theory and work of

the Party must conform to the times, follow the law of development and display

great creativity. Whether we can persist in doing this bears on the future and

destiny of the Party and state.







　　Innovation sustains the progress of a nation. It is an inexhaustible motive

force for the prosperity of a country and the source of the eternal vitality of

a political party. The world is changing, China's reform, opening up and

modernization drive are advancing and our people's great practice is

progressing. All this urgently requires our Party to sum up new experience from

practice, draw on the achievements of modern human civilization, broaden its

fields of vision in theory and come up with new theses with the courage of the

theory of Marxism. Only thus can our Party's ideology and theory guide the whole

Party and the entire people forward and inspire them to push ahead the cause of

building socialism with Chinese characteristics. Theoretical innovation based on

practice precedes social development and changes. Bringing forth new ideas in

institutions, science and technology, culture and other fields through

theoretical innovation, exploring the way forward in practice, never becoming

conceited and never slackening our effort - these are the ways of running the

Party and state, which we should follow for a long time to come.







　　Innovation requires emancipating our minds, seeking truth from facts and

keeping pace with the times. There is no limit to practice nor to innovation. We

will surpass our predecessors, and future generations will certainly surpass us.

This is an inexorable law governing social advancement. We must adapt ourselves

to the progress of practice and test all things in practice. We must

conscientiously free our minds from the shackles of the outdated notions,

practices and systems, from the erroneous and dogmatic interpretations of

Marxism and from the fetters of subjectivism and metaphysics. While upholding

the basic tenets of Marxism, we must add new chapters of theory to it. While

carrying forward the revolutionary tradition, we must acquire new experience. We

should be good at seeking unity in thinking through the emancipation of our

minds and guiding our new practice with the developing Marxism.











　　2. To carry out the important thought of Three Represents, it is essential for

the Party to give top priority to development in governing and rejuvenating the

country and open up new prospects for the modernization drive. A Marxist ruling

party must attach great importance to the liberation and development of the

productive forces. Without development, it would be impossible to maintain the

progressiveness of the Party, give play to the superiority of the socialist

system and make the people rich and the country strong. The progressiveness of

the Party is concrete and historical" title="a.历史(上)的">historical, and it must be judged by whether the Party

promotes the development of the advanced productive forces and culture in

present-day China and works to safeguard and realize the fundamental interests

of the overwhelming majority of the people. In the final analysis, it must be

judged by the Party's role in propelling history forward.







　　In China, a large developing country with a backward economy and culture,

where our Party is leading the people in the modernization drive, a good

solution to the problem of development has a direct bearing on the trend of

popular sentiment and the success of our cause. Shouldering the historical" title="a.历史(上)的">historical

responsibility to propel the Chinese society, the Party must always keep a firm

grip on development -- the top priority for its governance and rejuvenation of

the country. It must maintain its progressiveness and give play to the

superiority of the socialist system by developing the advanced productive forces

and culture and realizing the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority

of the people, speeding up all-round social progress and promoting the all-round

development of people. So long as the Party firmly grasps this point, it will

have thoroughly understood the aspirations of the people and the essence of the

socialist modernization drive, and thus it will be able to keep implementing the

important thought of Three Represents and consolidating its position as the

ruling party and meet the requirement of making the country strong and the

people rich.







　　Development requires that we always concentrate on economic growth, base

ourselves on China's realities, conform to the trend of the times and continue

to explore new ways to promote the progress of the advanced productive forces

and culture. Development requires that we uphold and deepen the reform. It

requires that we do away with all notions which hinder development, change all

practices and regulations which impede it and get rid of all the drawbacks of

the systems which adversely affect it. Development requires that we trust and

rely on the people who are the motive force for pushing forward the advance of

history. We will pool the wisdom and strength of the people of the whole country

and concentrate on construction and development.







　　3. To carry out the important thought of Three Represents, it is essential to

bring all positive factors into full play and bring new forces to the great

cause of rejuvenating the Chinese nation. The interests of the overwhelming

majority of the people and the initiative and creativity of the whole society

and the entire nation are always the most decisive factors for advancing the

cause of the Party and state. In the process of profound social changes in our

country and the rapid development of the cause of the Party and state, it is

vitally important to properly balance the interests of all quarters and fully

mobilize and rally all positive factors.







　　With the deepening of reform and opening up and economic and cultural

development, the working class in China has expanded steadily and its quality

improved. The working class, with the intellectuals as part of it, and the

farmers are always the basic forces for promoting the development of the

advanced productive forces and all-round social progress in our country.

Emerging in the process of social changes, entrepreneurs and technicalpersonnel

employed by non-public scientific and technological enterprises, managerial and

technical staff employed by overseas-funded enterprises, the self-employed,

private entrepreneurs, employees in intermediaries, free-lance professionals and

members of other social strata are all builders of socialism with Chinese

characteristics. We should unite with the people of all social strata who help

to make the motherland prosperous and strong, encouraging their pioneering

spirit, protecting their legitimate rights and interests and commending the

outstanding ones in an effort to create a situation in which all people are well

positioned, do their best and live in harmony.







　　We must respect work, knowledge, competent people and creation. This should be

an important policy of the Party and state to be conscientiously implemented in

society at large. We need to respect and protect all work that is good for the

people and society. All work that contributes to the socialist modernization

drive in China, physical or mental and simple or complicated, is glorious and

should be acknowledged and respected. All investors at home or from overseas

should be encouraged to carry out business activities in China's development.

All legitimate income, from work or not, should be protected. It is improper to

judge whether people are politically progressive or backward simply by whether

they own property or how much property they own. But rather, we should judge

them mainly by their political awareness, state of mind and performance, by how

they have acquired and used their property, and by how they have contributed to

the cause of building socialism with Chinese characteristics through their work.

It is necessary to foster notions and form a business mechanism inconformity

with the basic economic system in the primary stage of socialism and create a

social environment in which people are encouraged to achieve something and

helped to make a success of their career, so as to unleash all the vitality

contained in work, knowledge, technology, management and capital and give full

play to all sources of social wealth for the benefit of the people.







　　In building socialism with Chinese characteristics, the fundamental interests

of the people of the whole country are identical, on the basis of which concrete

interest relations and internal contradictions can be adjusted. In the

formulation and implementation of the Party's principles and policies, a basic

point of departure is that we should represent the fundamental interests of the

overwhelming majority of the people, and correctly reflect and take into account

the interests of different groups of people, enabling the whole people to

advance steadily toward the goal of common prosperity. We should protect the

vitality for further growth of the developed regions, strong industries and

people who have become rich first through hard work and lawful business

operations and encouraging them to create social wealth. More importantly, we

must pay great attention to less developed areas and the industries and people

in straitened circumstances and show concern for them. In particular, we must

see to it that the people in financial difficulties have subsistence allowances,

and we must take effective measures to help them find jobs and improve their

living conditions so that they will truly feel the warmth of our socialist

society.







　　4. To carry out the important thought of Three Represents, it is essential to

push forward Party building in a spirit of reform and instill new vitality in

the Party. Attaching vital importance to and strengthening Party building is a

magic weapon with which our Party has grown from a small and weak force to a

large and strong one, risen in spite of setbacks and matured gradually in

surmounting difficulties. As the historical" title="a.历史(上)的">historical experience of the Party over the

past 80 years and more shows, the most important point is that we must build up

the Party according to its political line, central task and general goal for

building it with a view to enhancing its creativity, cohesion and fighting

capacity.







　　Persisting in self-examination in compliance with the requirements of the

times and pursuing self-improvement in a spirit of reform are the fundamental

guarantee that our Party will always remain a Marxist party, will never be

divorced from the people and will be full of vitality. We must be good at both

reviewing our useful experience and learning lessons from our mistakes. We must

be good at both leading the people ahead by putting forward and implementing the

correct theory and line and acquiring the motivation for progress from the

people's creations in practice and their desire for development. We must be good

at both understanding and changing the objective world and organizing and

guiding cadres and other Party members to strengthen their efforts to change

their subjective world in practice. Bearing these requirements in mind, we must

integrate adherence to the basic tenets of Marxism with efforts for theoretical

innovation, maintenance of the fine tradition of the Party with promotion of the

spirit of the times, and consolidation of the Party's class base with expansion

of its mass base so that the Party serves as a strong core of leadership that is

consolidated ideologically, politically and organizationally and always stands

in the forefront of the times leading the people forward in solidarity.







　　All in all, the important thought of Three Represents is always in a process

of development and progress. The whole Party must continue to emancipate the

mind, come up with new ideas in respect of theory and create something new in

practice. It must carry out the important thought of Three Represents in all

endeavors of the socialist modernization drive and in all aspects of Party

building so that it always advances with the times and shares weal and woe with

the people.
