On Promoting the Systematization and Theorization of Theories：Xi Jin-ping’s proposal that “promoting the systematization and theorization of theories is an intrinsic requirement and an important way of theoretical innovation” reveals a law of the development of Marxism and the development of philosophy and social sciences in contemporary China.The essential characteristics of Marxism as a scientific theory determine that it intrinsically requires the continual advancement of the systematization and theorization of theories.The law of the development of human cognition and the history of Marxism both indicate that advancing the systematization and theorization of theories is an important way to open up a new realm of the localization of Marxism and the development of philosophical and social sciences in contemporary China.To promote the CPC’s theories of innovation as well as the systematization and theorization of various disciplines of philosophy and social sciences in contemporary China,we must,on the basis of adhering to the basic principles of Marxism,grasp the Marxist worldview and methodology and hold fast to and applying the position,viewpoint,and methodology that runs through them;we must,on the basis of social practice,orient ourselves to the actual life of the society as well as integrate and unify the studies of objective reality and theoretical studies.(Tian Xin-ming)

A Vivid Record of Historical Progress and a Concentrated Reflection of Innovative Achievements:On Studying Selected Works of Xi Jinping：StudyingSelected Works of Xi Jin-pingcan help us grasp Xi Jin-ping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era more profoundly.According to the method of unifying history and logic,the first volume grasps the background of the times and assumes the historical responsibility in a problem-oriented way,a shift from “responding to changes and laying out a new situation” to putting forward “new strategies and new ideas”;the second volume,stretching from declaring a “new era” to proposing “new ideas”,embarking on a “new journey”,and formulating the “new development”,vividly records the historical process of opening up a new era and creating new ideas.Selected Works of Xi Jinpingsystematically presents the main contents of Xi Jin-ping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and the rich connotation of its scientific system,fully demonstrates its historical position of “a new leap”,profoundly reflects its worldview and methodology as well as its underlying positions,viewpoints and methods,and centrally unfolds its innovativeness.(Chen Xi-xi,Hu Hai-peng)

The Valuable Contribution of Updated “Systems Thinking” to Marxism in the Twenty-First Century：Among the “six unshakable principles”,that “we must apply systems thinking” is of great significance to the development of Marxism,as it enriches the methodological treasure trove of Marxism from the methodological level.Systems thinking boasts a long history and rich sources,and the systematic approach in Xi Jin-ping socialist thought with Chinese characteristics for a new era is a product which fully absorbs systems thinking.The application of the systematic approach by Lenin,Mao Ze-dong,and Deng Xiao-ping reflects the twentieth-century Marxist understanding of the laws of social development.Entering the twenty-first century,Xi Jin-ping scientifically grasped the trend of economic globalization,put forward the idea of a community of shared future for mankind,and applied the systematic approach to address the challenges to economic globalization;his integration of the systematic approach into state governance reflects the CPC member’s deepened understanding of the laws of social development.The foundational establishment of the systematic approach in Xi Jin-ping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era suggests the development of Marxist methodology in the twenty-first century.(Sun Li)

Constructing an Independent and Original Academic System of Marxist Theory with Chinese Characteristics：Accelerating the construction of the disciplinary system,academic system and discourse system of philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics is an important task proposed by Xi Jin-ping for the majority of theoretical workers.Constructing an independent and original academic system of Marxist theory with Chinese characteristics is the theoretical foundation that should be consolidated so as to build the three systems of philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics.We can form the “four beams and eight pillars” of an independent and original academic system of Marxist theory with Chinese characteristics,with the three historical leaps in the localization of Marxism in China as the main body,a series of defining concepts extracted from the localization as cornerstones,and a number of foundational assertions presented through these concepts as struts.As the process of localizing Marxism in China is still on its way,constructing an independent and original academic system of Marxist theory with Chinese characteristics is a long-term,comprehensive and open work.(Institute of Chinese Marxism,Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences)

Constructing Chinese Discourse and Narrative System:Basic Ideas and Principles：To tell good Chinese stories,spread favourable Chinese voices,and present credible,lovely and honorable images of China,it is necessary to build a mature Chinese discourse and narrative system.The socialist system with Chinese characteristics is the solid institutional foundation of the Chinese discourse and narrative system;the best of traditional Chinese culture is its profound cultural foundation;the Chinese modernization is its unique practical symbol.The process of constructing and improving the Chinese discourse and narrative system must focus on the pursuit of goals at four levels:showing China’s achievements in development and manifesting China’s attitude;enhancing its international voice;resisting the decadent bourgeois ideology of the West;and contributing China’s wisdom and solutions to the new civilization of mankind.On this basis,we should also focus on three dimensions:on the basis of the general principles of discourse,following the logic of discourse and the laws of language generation and development;with the integration of the characteristics of the Chinese nation,conforming to the linguistic and cultural traditions as well as the habits of discourse and narrative thinking;in view of China’s specific practice,effectively reflecting the practical development of Chinese modernization on the new journey.(Zhang Xian-zhi)

On Mao Ze-dong’s Historical Contributions to the Development of Philosophy and Social Sciences in China：Mao Ze-dong made important contributions to the development of philosophy and social sciences in different stages of his leading Chinese revolution and construction.About since the founding of the CPC,Mao Ze-dong has studied and disseminated Marxism,leading the ideological awakening of the country and the nation;In the period of the Great Revolution and the Agrarian Revolution,Mao Ze-dong conducted in-depth investigations and researches on Chinese society and Chinese revolution,which realized the leap from scientific theories to academic and social practices;during the Yan’an Period,Mao Ze-dong guided and promoted disciplinary construction and academic researching to build the basic pattern of the Chinese Marxist philosophy and social sciences;After the founding of the People’s Republic of China,Mao Ze-dong opened a new chapter in contemporary Chinese philosophy and social sciences through upgrading old layout and exploring new development.Summarizing and reviewing Mao Ze-dong’s historical contributions to the development of philosophy and social sciences in China is of great significance for the prosperity and development of philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics in the new era.(Zhang Bo)

Re-discussing Mao Ze-dong’s Thought on Comprehensive Balance in the National Economy：An important part of his economic thought,Mao Ze-dong’s thought on comprehensive balance in the national economy includes the connotation and essence of comprehensively balancing the national economy,the basis,the guarantee,and the means for its realization,and the growth mode of the national economy in the form of a “wave-like advance”.Under the new historical circumstances,Mao Ze-dong’s thought on comprehensive balance in the national economy reflects important values of the times:firstly,it is to realize the dynamic balance of supply and demand on the basis of the organic integration of supply-side structural reform and the strategy of expanding domestic demand;secondly,it is to promote the shift of macroeconomic regulation to a more comprehensive macroeconomic governance;and thirdly,it is to provide leadership,institutional guarantee and micro-carriers for comprehensive balance in the national economy through adhering to the Party’s centralized and unified leadership of the economic work and to the “two unshakeable principles”.(Zhou Shao-dong)

The Economic Construction Led by Mao Ze-dong in the Soviet Period:Practical Strategies and Historical Contributions：During the Soviet period,Mao Ze-dong criticized the two extreme understandings of “revolutionary-war-centrism” and “economic-construction-centrism” within the CPC and the Red Army.After rounds of investigation and research,Mao Ze-dong initially formed a set of economic strategies to serve “revolutionary war” with “economic construction”.Viewed from the perspective of modern economic-military science,the strategy is characterized by its orientation,mobilization,integration and massification.In terms of historical contribution,the research method pioneered by Mao Ze-dong became the CPC’s practical methodology for carrying out revolutionary and economic work;his strategy provided theoretical and practical references for breaking through the economic blockade in the early period of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Invaders in the Shanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Areas,and for the rapid recovery of the national economy in the early days of New China,which enabled the people in the Soviet area to transform the expectation for a happy life into a beautiful reality of the New China.(Han Ling,Tang Song-nan)

Marxist Classic Writers’ Elaborating on Theoretical Struggle:Important Exposition and Contemporary Enlightenment：Theoretical struggle reflects political and economic struggle in the field of ideology and culture.It is the basic form of proletarian struggle and a distinctive concept of Marxism.The classic Marxist writers have always attached great importance to the theoretical struggle.Centering on the central issue of “what the theoretical struggle is,as well as why and how to carry out it”,they clarified the content and scope of the theoretical struggle and pointed out the important principles and basic rules for promoting the struggle.In the face of new missions,the important exposition by the Marxist classic writers on the theoretical struggle and the valuable historical experience of promoting the struggle inspire us:we must confront the risks and challenges on the ideological and theoretical front,face up to and attach proper significance to the theoretical struggle in the new historical conditions,and promote positive and healthy theoretical struggle with a certain direction,principles and stance.(Wang Wei-ping)

Scientific and Technological Development and the Displacement of Capital Increment:A Changing Trend：Driven by new science and technology,the displacement of capital increment has triggered the accelerated reshaping of the global industrial structure;the collusion between capital and technology leads to the dramatic imbalance of wealth distribution in the world;and the competition for global resources presents a new situation.Based on the complex situation of the global economic development,we should thoroughly study the contradiction between the scientific and technological hegemony of the western developed countries and China’s open economy,develop limit thought to cope with the competition in the field of high-tech and the disorderly expansion of capital,further enhance scientific and technological innovation,and implement a high level of opening up to the outside world.We should also promote the optimization and upgrading of China’s industrial structure and accelerate the construction of a new development pattern in which the domestic cycle plays a leading role and the domestic and international cycles promote each other.In the uneven development of capitalized technology and technology-empowered capital,we should recognize the institutional attributes of science and technology and capital,coordinate the strategy of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the great changes unseen in a century,and open up a new situation of win-win cooperation in the practice of building socialism with Chinese characteristics.(Li Qiong-qiong)
