1The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Party held in February 1978 was a great turning point with far-reaching significance in the history of the Party since the founding of New China, thus opening a new historical period of reform and opening up. The 30 years of reform and opening up after the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee are 30 years of great changes in China and prosperity of socialism, and 30 years of solid steps taken by the Chinese nation on the road to rejuvenation.

Reform and opening up is the only way to develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

1. This judgment is based on facts and is a description of objective facts. Over the past 30 years of reform and opening up, the people of China, party member and China have written a new magnificent epic of the Chinese nation's self-improvement and indomitable progress with indomitable enterprising spirit and magnificent innovative practice. Historical changes have taken place in the faces of the people of China, socialist China and the Communist Party of China (CPC). Such changes make a socialist China facing modernization, the world and the future stand tall in the east of the world. Make socialism and Marxism flourish in China, bring more benefits to the people, and enable the Chinese nation to catch up with the trend of the times and usher in a bright future of great rejuvenation.

2. This judgment reveals the inevitability and uniqueness of reform and opening up. The "key choice" and "the only way" show that our party is right to take the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics. Comrade Deng Xiaoping said in 1984 that after five and a half years of development, this road is feasible and our confidence has been strengthened. At 1992, he said more clearly that if we don't reform and open up, we will die. This tells us that reform and opening up is a new road and the only way. On this road, we become more confident as we walk. Only by continuing along this new road can we achieve the grand goal of building a well-off society in an all-round way and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

This judgment reveals a brand-new conclusion. The brand-new assertion that "only reform and opening up can develop China, socialism and Marxism" shows that our party's profound understanding of the great significance and role of reform and opening up has reached a new height. We used to say that only socialism can save China and only socialism can develop China. But what kind of socialism can develop China? What is the fundamental driving force for the development of China? How can we achieve development? We are not very clear about these problems. Based on the practice of reform and opening up for 30 years, only reform and opening up can develop China, socialism and Marxism, which clearly expresses our party's political stance of adhering to reform and opening up and its profound understanding of the great role of reform and opening up. This judgment also marks that our party's understanding of the ruling law of the * * * production party has reached a new realm.

Emancipating the mind is the forerunner of promoting reform and opening up, liberating some people from dogmatism, bookishness and rigid and semi-rigid state, making ideological understanding keep up with the ever-changing objective world, achieving the consistency between subjective understanding and objective reality, and seeking truth from facts. Practice has proved that in the new historical period, every time we emancipate our minds, we will surely remove obstacles on the road ahead and greatly promote reform and opening up. Comrade Hu Jintao pointed out that emancipating the mind is the essential requirement of the Party's ideological line, and it is a magic weapon for us to deal with all kinds of new situations and problems on the road ahead and constantly create a new situation in our cause.

Reform and opening up closely combine internal reform with opening up. Reform promotes opening up, which in turn promotes reform and forms a benign interaction between reform and opening up. Reform is the only way to liberate and develop productive forces, and opening to the outside world is a necessary condition to realize socialist modernization. The combination of reform and opening up is a distinctive feature of China's socialist reform and an important reason for its success. Under the condition of socialized mass production, no country, regardless of its social system, can develop its own economy in isolation. Closed doors and closed doors will not succeed, but will only lead to stagnation and backwardness. Only by making full use of domestic and international markets and resources, absorbing all the achievements of human civilization and consciously being in the competition of international markets can a country make its national economy develop faster. China's opening to the outside world has two bright spots, one is the establishment of special economic zones, and the other is attracting foreign investment. After 30 years' efforts, China has formed an all-directional, wide-ranging and deep-seated opening-up pattern from the coast to the mainland. Opening to the outside world has introduced a large amount of capital, advanced science and technology and management methods, promoted domestic reform and integration with the world economy, and brought great impetus and vitality to the cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

Maintaining a virtuous circle of reform, development and stability and correctly handling the relationship between reform, development and stability are important issues throughout the whole process of reform. Reform is the driving force, and reform can promote development. In a sense, the issue of economic development is essentially a reform issue; Development is the goal, the "hard truth" and the "top priority in governing and rejuvenating the country". The final solution of the problem depends on economic development, which in turn promotes reform and is the foundation of social stability and long-term stability of the country. Stability is the prerequisite and indispensable condition for developing economy and culture and carrying out reform smoothly. Without a stable environment, nothing can be done, and even the achievements already made will be lost. Reform, development and stability are both unified and contradictory. If handled well, they can promote each other. If it is not handled properly, it will hurt each other. An important reason for the success of China's reform is to grasp the strength of reform, the speed of development and the degree of stability, so as to keep a balance and a virtuous circle between them.

Reform and opening up is a new great revolution led by our party in the new era. In the past 30 years, China's achievements in reform, opening up and socialist modernization have attracted worldwide attention. Facts have eloquently proved that reform and opening up is the only way to develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Since the reform and opening up, our party has led the people to open up the road to Socialism with Chinese characteristics. The reason why this road is correct and can lead the development and progress of China lies in that we not only adhere to the basic principles of scientific socialism, but also endow it with distinctive China characteristics according to the reality of China. We will continue to deepen our research and exploration of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and strive to broaden the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

China is still in and will be in the primary stage of socialism for a long time. Carrying out reform and opening up is not only an inherent requirement for the development of social productive forces, but also an inevitable requirement for the self-improvement and development of the socialist system. The nature of the reform, like the past revolution, is also aimed at removing obstacles to the development of social productive forces and freeing China from poverty and backwardness. In a sense, reform is also a revolution. Reform not only fundamentally changes the economic system that restricts the development of China's productive forces, but also involves politics, culture, science and education, society and other fields. This is a comprehensive reform. The report of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out: "Reform and opening up is a new great revolution led by the Party in the new era, with the purpose of liberating and developing social productive forces, realizing national modernization, making the people of China rich and rejuvenating the great Chinese nation; It is to promote the self-improvement and development of China's socialist system, give new vitality to socialism, and build and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics; It is to strengthen and improve party building in leading the development and progress of contemporary China, maintain and develop the party's advanced nature, and ensure that the party always walks in the forefront of the times. " Therefore, under the premise of adhering to the basic principles of socialism and adapting to the requirements of the development of the times, this reform has revolutionized some unreasonable aspects and links in the production relations and superstructure, and further radiated the vitality and superiority of socialism from the institutional mechanism. If we say that the great victories of the new-democratic revolution and the socialist revolution led by our party have established the basic socialist system and opened a new historical period in which the people of China are masters of their own affairs, then the new great revolution of reform and opening up led by our party has opened a new historical period in which the socialist system is self-improving and socialist modernization is built.
