The Scientific Connotation, Historical Evolution and Practical Strategy of Common Prosperity from the Perspective of Chinese-Style Modernization

Abstract

The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China focuses on Chinese-style modernization, which clearly promotes common prosperity in an all-round way with Chinese-style modernization. However, how to understand the relationship between the two needs to be further clarified and interpreted. Compared with the Western modernization logic which deviates from the ideal of all-round development of human and society, common prosperity is the inevitable way to realize Chinese modernization. Richer “balanced distribution” of material wealth, more perfect “social community” political civilization, and more equitable “co-construction and sharing” social atmosphere are unified in the theoretical connotation of Chinese-style modernization of common prosperity, which determines that the realization of common prosperity needs to be continuously promoted in stages under the guidance of the overall goal, and in the grasp of the principles of unity, dialectics and coordination. The exploration process of the Chinese-style modernization road has made the Party’s leadership the key to achieving common prosperity, and the high-quality development ideas and demonstration zone construction plans of modernization have injected practical water into the common prosperity of Chinese-style modernization.
