The basic features and contemporary values of anti-poverty theory with Chinese characteristics

Abstract

Eliminating poverty, improving people's livelihood and gradually achieving common prosperity are the essential requirements of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Rooted in the anti-poverty practice with Chinese characteristics, the anti-poverty theory with Chinese characteristics is a process from practice to theory and back again, and is a scientific theory tested by anti-poverty practice, providing theoretical guidance and intellectual support for China's anti-poverty cause. The anti-poverty theory with Chinese characteristics is distinctly people-oriented, realistic, comprehensive, precise, innovative and universal. It is not only an important ideological guide and basic guideline for poverty alleviation work in the new era, but also a practical guide to fully start the road to modernisation and common prosperity, reflecting the special value of the times.
