【People’s Daily】Decoding China’s new model for human progress
October 02 , 2022
Over the past seven decades, China has achieved a historic leap from a country with relatively backward productive forces to the world’s second largest economy. The Communist Party of China (CPC) has led the Chinese people in pioneering a new and uniquely Chinese path to modernization. In a speech at a ceremony marking the CPC centenary in Beijing in 2021, Chinese President Xi Jinping said for the first time the CPC had “created a new model for human progress.”
What is the new model? What are the differences between this model and other forms of civilization? How will this new model develop and influence the world? We invited five experts, Wang Huiyao, founder and president of the Center for China and Globalization, Zhao Changwen, president of the Center for International Knowledge on Development, Han Zhen, professor of the School of Philosophy of Beijing Normal University, Zhang Xiaomeng, deputy dean of the School of Marxism Studies of Renmin University of China, and Evandro Menezes de Carvalho, head of the Center for Brazil-China Studies at the FGV Law School in Rio de Janeiro, to give their answers.
