The forum was jointly hosted by the Academy of Marxism of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the Guizhou Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, and Zunyi Normal College. It was organized by the Department of International Communist Movement Studies of the Academy of Marxism of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the Institute of Party Building (Institute of Marxism) of the Guizhou Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, and the Research Center for the Revolutionary Spirit and Cultural Resources of the Communist Party of China at Zunyi Normal College. It was co-organized by the Social Sciences Academic Press, the editorial department of *Studies on Marxism*, and the editorial department of *Guizhou Social Sciences*.

论坛由中国社会科学院马克思主义研究院、贵州省社会科学院和遵义师范学院共同主办，由中国社会科学院马克思主义研究院国际共产主义运动研究部、贵州省社会科学院党建研究所（马克思主义研究所）、遵义师范学院中国共产党革命精神与文化资源研究中心承办，由社会科学文献出版社、《马克思主义研究》编辑部、《贵州社会科学》编辑部协办。

Guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, this forum closely revolved around the theme “70 Years of the People’s Republic of China and Studies of the International Communist Movement.” It comprehensively reviewed the historical process of the 70 years since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, deeply explored the significant contributions of these 70 years to the development of scientific socialism, deeply examined the major significance of socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era for world socialism, and deeply investigated the new characteristics, new patterns, and new trends in the development of world socialism in the 21st century.

本届论坛以习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想为指导，紧紧围绕“新中国70年与国际共产主义运动研究”这个主题，全面回顾新中国成立70年来的历史进程，深入探讨新中国70年对科学社会主义发展的重大贡献，深入探讨新时代中国特色社会主义对世界社会主义的重大意义，深入探讨21世纪世界社会主义发展的新特点、新格局和新走向。

In his keynote report, Jiang Hui, Member of the Leading Party Members Group of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Director of the Institute of Contemporary China Studies, and Dean of the Academy of Marxism, pointed out that the 70 years of the People’s Republic of China had successfully answered the historic question of “what socialism is and how to build and develop socialism”; that China had become the guiding banner and mainstay of world socialist development in the 21st century; and that in the 21st century, China, with its unique institutional advantages, fully demonstrates the superiority of the socialist system. Jiang Hui proposed that 2019 marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of the May Fourth Movement, and the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist International—all major commemorative dates in the history of the international communist movement. At such an important temporal juncture, holding the “International Communist Forum” in Zunyi, this fertile red soil, holds special significance for the international communist movement to reorganize its ranks and set out anew, ushering in a new phase of development for the international communist movement. Jiang Hui argued that the 21st century is a century of the revitalization of world socialism. The new development of world socialism in the 21st century, with irrefutable facts, has shattered the arrogant claims after the drastic changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe about “capitalism once again unifying the world,” crushed the long-pursued “peaceful evolution” schemes of capitalist strategists to achieve “victory without war,” put an end to the myth of the so-called “end of history,” and powerfully and continuously confirmed across the entire world the historical law that socialism inevitably replaces capitalism, thereby restoring and boosting the power of Marxist truth.

中国社会科学院党组成员、当代中国研究所所长、马克思主义研究院院长姜辉在主旨报告中指出，新中国70年成功回答了“什么是社会主义，怎样建设和发展社会主义”的历史性课题；中国已成为21世纪世界社会主义发展的引领旗帜和中流砥柱；21世纪中国以独特的制度优势充分证明社会主义制度的优越性。姜辉提出，2019年是新中国成立70周年、“五四运动”爆发100周年、“共产国际”成立100周年等，这些都是国际共运历史上的重大纪念日，在这样重要的时间节点，在遵义这片红色沃土上举办“国际共产主义论坛”，对于国际共运重整行装再出发，迎来国际共运发展的新局面有着更为特殊的意义。姜辉认为，21世纪是世界社会主义振兴的世纪。21世纪世界社会主义的新发展以雄辩的事实，打破了苏东剧变后关于“资本主义重新一统天下”的狂言妄论，粉碎了资本主义战略家们长期推行的“不战而胜”的和平演变图谋，终结了所谓“历史终结论”的神话，并在整个世界范围内有力而持续地印证着社会主义必然代替资本主义的历史规律，重新恢复并提振着马克思主义真理的力量。

In his speech, Yan Shizhong, Inspector of the Propaganda Department of the Guizhou Provincial Party Committee, pointed out that Marxism has provided a powerful driving force for China’s revolution, construction, and reform, enabling China to achieve unprecedented development in human history and guiding China to successfully embark on the broad road of comprehensively building a modern socialist power. As faithful believers in Marxism, Chinese Communists are persistently striving to uphold and develop Marxism. The International Communist Movement Forum is a platform for persistently striving to construct and develop Marxism.

贵州省委宣传部巡视员晏世忠在致辞中指出，马克思主义为中国革命建设改革提供了强大动力，使中国创造了人类历史上前所未有的发展，指引中国成功走上了全面建设社会主义现代化强国的康庄大道，中国共产党人作为马克思主义的忠诚信奉者，正在为坚持和发展马克思主义而执着努力，国际共产主义运动论坛是一个为建设发展马克思主义而执着努力的平台。

In his speech, Chen Daijun, Deputy Secretary of the Zunyi Municipal Party Committee, pointed out that we are all steadfast believers in Marxism and upholders of the banner of communism. We must always adhere to the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, firmly establish the Four Consciousnesses, strengthen the Four Confidences, and uphold the Two Upholds, striving tirelessly to continuously promote the Party’s theoretical innovation and maintain the Party’s youthful vitality.

In his speech, Wu Dahua, Dean of the Guizhou Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out that holding the International Communist Movement Forum is a vivid manifestation of Marxist researchers “not forgetting their original aspiration, reorganizing their ranks, and setting out anew.” This forum is another important achievement of the cooperation between the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Guizhou Provincial People’s Government, as well as the cooperation between the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Guizhou Provincial Academy of Social Sciences. It is also the fruit of long-term cooperation between the Guizhou Provincial Academy of Social Sciences and Zunyi Normal College. Furthermore, it is one of the series of activities of the Guizhou Provincial Academy of Social Sciences to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China.

贵州省社会科学院院长吴大华在致辞中指出，举办国际共运论坛是马克思主义研究者“不忘初心，重整行装再出发”的生动体现。本届论坛是中国社科院与贵州省人民政府合作和中国社科院与贵州省社科院合作的又一项重要成果；也是贵州省社科院和遵义师范学院长期合作的结晶；还是贵州省社科院庆祝新中国成立70周年的系列活动之一。

In his speech, Wang Dazhong, Party Secretary of Zunyi Normal College, pointed out that Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era has further developed scientific socialism, deepened the understanding of the laws governing the Communist Party’s governance, the construction of socialism, and the development of human society, and holds an extremely important historical position in the history of Marxist development. Today, we gather here to discuss the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and the trends of the international communist movement precisely in order to develop Marxism and contemporary Chinese Marxism, to gather the intellectual wisdom and courageous strength for the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and to strive to continuously advance the great cause pioneered by our revolutionary predecessors.

遵义师范学院党委书记王大忠在致辞中指出，习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想进一步发展了科学社会主义，深化了对共产党执政规律、社会主义建设规律、人类社会发展规律的认识，在马克思主义发展史上具有极其重要的历史地位。今天，我们在这里探讨新中国成立70周年与国际共产主义运动趋势，就是为了发展马克思主义以及当代中国的马克思主义，凝聚中华民族伟大复兴中国梦的思想智慧和勇气力量，努力把革命前辈们开创的伟大事业不断推向前进。

本届论坛还发布了《国际共产主义运动发展报告（2018-2019）》黄皮书。黄皮书是由社会科学文献出版社出版的第1本有关“国际共产主义运动”的皮书系列。黄皮书由姜辉、潘金娥主编，共包括“总报告”“理论聚焦篇”“改革发展篇”“思潮运动篇”“资料篇”五部分内容。

The Yellow Book [8]8 The “Yellow Book” (黄皮书) refers to the annual report on the international communist movement published by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, so named for its yellow cover. holds that, against the backdrop of major development, transformation, and adjustment in the international landscape, the international communist movement in 2018 can be said to have formed a surge through various interactions between history and reality, theory and practice, and China and the world. On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Marx’s birth and the 170th anniversary of the publication of the *Communist Manifesto*, various commemorative activities were held around the world, re-recognizing Marx’s genius and reaffirming the important historical value and practical significance of Marxism. China held a conference to celebrate the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up, proving the scientific nature and practicality of Marxism through the great practical achievements of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and proving that combining the theory of scientific socialism as expounded in the *Communist Manifesto* with the concrete reality of one’s own country is a successful path for building socialism. The success of socialism with Chinese characteristics highlights the superiority of the socialist system and boosts confidence in the international communist movement and the development of world socialism.

黄皮书认为，在国际格局面临大发展大变革大调整的背景下，2018年，国际共产主义运动可谓在历史与现实、理论与实践、中国与世界的各种互动中形成激荡。在马克思诞辰200周年和《共产党宣言》发表170周年之际，世界各地举行各种各样的纪念活动，重新认识了马克思的天才，重新肯定马克思主义的重要历史价值和现实意义。中国举行庆祝改革开放40周年大会，以中国特色社会主义的伟大实践成就证明马克思主义的科学性和实践性，证明了将《共产党宣言》中所阐释的科学社会主义理论与本国具体实际相结合是一条建设社会主义的成功道路。中国特色社会主义的成功，彰显了社会主义制度的优越性，为国际共产主义运动和世界社会主义发展提振了信心。

The Yellow Book uses primary sources and a comprehensive perspective to reflect the basic situation and characteristics of the discipline’s annual development. The forum aims to contribute to the development of the discipline of the international communist movement through the publication and distribution of the Yellow Book, while also opening a window for readers to deeply understand the contemporary world and contemporary China.

黄皮书以一手资料、全面视角反映学科年度发展的基本情况和态势特征。论坛旨在通过黄皮书的出版发行，为推动国际共运学科发展助一臂之力，同时也为广大读者打开深刻理解当今世界和当代中国的一个窗口。
