The Communist Party of China is the faithful descendant of the spirit of the Communist Manifesto

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in his speech at the celebration of the 100 anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China: "Why can the Communist Party of China and why socialism with Chinese characteristics is good? In the final analysis, it is because of Marxism!" As the source of Marxism, the "Communist Manifesto" profoundly interprets the "Marxist Action" with its power of truth and practice ". The Communist Party of China is the faithful inheritors of the spirit of the Communist Manifesto. Over the past 100 years, learning and using the "Communist Manifesto" has always been an important reason for our party's repeated brilliance, and it is also an inherent requirement for our party to write a new chapter in the future.

Carrying out the study and education of party history requires us to feel the truth power of the Communist Manifesto through the century-old party history, so that the truth power of the Communist Manifesto can enter reality and illuminate the future, and apply the scientific principles and scientific spirit contained in the Communist Manifesto. In the practice of commanding great struggles, great projects, great undertakings, and great dreams, we will continue to write new chapters of the times and create new historical great undertakings.

The Communist Manifesto is a classic work of scientific insight into the law of the development of human society. The law of human social development revealed in the Manifesto of the Communist Party is the theoretical basis for the Chinese Communists to strengthen their communist ideals and beliefs. Belief in Marxism, belief in socialism and communism are the political soul of the Communists and the spiritual pillar for the Communists to withstand any test. In August 1920, the first Chinese translation of the Communist Manifesto, translated by Chen Wangdao, was published in Shanghai. Since then, drawing the power of faith from the "Communist Manifesto" and striving for the cause of communism for life has become the conscious choice of generations of Communists. Firm ideals and beliefs are not only the "key to victory" for the Communists to overcome all difficulties and dangers, but also the "spiritual calcium" for tempering their determination to struggle, providing a powerful spiritual force for the Communist Party of China to unite and lead the Chinese people in revolution, construction, and reform. China, an ancient oriental country, has created an unprecedented miracle of development in human history. Reading the "Communist Manifesto" in combination with party history will help expand the understanding of a series of major theoretical and practical issues such as the scientific nature of Marxist theory, the historicity of the communist movement, the inevitability of the choice of the Chinese revolutionary road, and the arduous exploration of the socialist road with Chinese characteristics. It will help deepen the understanding of the laws of the Communist Party's governance, the laws of socialist construction, and the laws of human social development. The more we understand the process of the Party's historical development and the laws of its movement, the stronger our ideals and beliefs will be.

The "Communist Manifesto" is a classic work that upholds the people's standpoint, works for the interests of the people, and seeks liberation for all mankind. The Communist Manifesto makes no secret of the class nature of the Marxist party, stands on the side of the proletariat and the broad masses of the people, and enthusiastically eulogizes the great role of the masses in promoting the progress of history. It emphasizes that "all movements in the past were movements for the interests of the minority or for the interests of the minority, and the movement of the proletariat is an independent movement of the overwhelming majority and for the interests of the overwhelming majority". Over the past 100 years, the Chinese Communists have built their original mission with firm ideals and beliefs, and have continued to write glorious chapters for the happiness of the Chinese people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

As a loyal descendant of the spirit of the Communist Manifesto, the Communist Party of China has always regarded the people's position as the party's fundamental political position. The people's position has become a distinctive symbol that distinguishes the Communist Party of China from other political parties. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized on different occasions that "the people are the creators of history and the real heroes." "The people are the greatest confidence for our party to govern." "The people's yearning for a better life is ours. The goal of struggle" "The country is the people, and the people are the country", it is required to "better meet the growing needs of the people in economic, political, cultural, social, ecological and other aspects", creatively develop the Marxist theory on the all-round development of human beings under the conditions of the new era, and declare to the world the people's position that the Communists adhere. The foundation lies in the people, the blood lies in the people, and the strength lies in the people. It is the fundamental logic of the Chinese Communist Party to lead the Chinese revolution, construction, and reform. It is also the victory code for the Chinese Communist Party to overcome all risks and challenges in the course of a century of struggle.

The Manifesto of the Communist Party profoundly expounds the scientific world outlook of Marxism, describes the new world outlook in thorough and clear language, that is, historical materialism, extends the materialist understanding of nature to the understanding of human society, introduces materialism into the historical field of human society, and profoundly reveals the law of the evolution and change of human history. The scientific and revolutionary nature of Marxist theory stems from the scientific world outlook and methodology of dialectical materialism and historical materialism, which provides us with a powerful ideological weapon for understanding and transforming the world. Over the past 100 years, the Chinese Communists have always been staunch historical materialists. In the various historical periods of revolution, construction, and reform, the Communist Party of China insisted on using historical materialism to systematically, concretely, and historically analyze Chinese social movements and their development laws, and constantly grasp and actively apply the laws in the process of understanding and transforming the world. The law has brought about earth-shaking historical changes in Chinese society.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized the importance of establishing a scientific world outlook on different occasions, and once again emphasized that "historical materialism is the fundamental method for us Communists to understand and grasp history" at the party history study and education mobilization meeting ". History and reality have repeatedly shown that only by adhering to historical materialism can we continuously raise our understanding of the laws of socialism with Chinese characteristics to a new level, continuously open up a new realm for the development of Marxism in contemporary China, correctly grasp the general trend of historical development, continue to strive for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and take advantage of the situation to start a new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way.
