The Logical Framework of Xi Jinping’s Important Discourse on Comprehensively Deepening Reform

Since the Third Plenary Session of the 18th Party Central Committee, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has united and led the entire Party, the military, and the people of all ethnic groups across the country, centering on major issues such as why comprehensively deepening reform is necessary in the New Era and how to advance it. Guided by new reform ideas, new viewpoints, and new theses, it has steered new practice, led new transformations, and driven new development, achieving a shift from piecemeal exploration and breakthrough to systemic integration and comprehensive deepening, thereby forming Xi Jinping’s important discourse on comprehensively deepening reform. The Third Plenary Session of the 20th Party Central Committee pointed out: “Reform and opening up is a crucial weapon enabling the cause of the Party and the people to keep pace with the times. The Third Plenary Session of the 11th Party Central Committee was epoch-making, ushering in a new period of reform and opening up and socialist modernization. The Third Plenary Session of the 18th Party Central Committee was also epoch-making, opening a new journey of comprehensively deepening reform and systematically designing and advancing reform as a whole in the New Era, and creating an entirely new situation for China’s reform and opening up.” [1]1 The Two Centenary Goals (两个一百年奋斗目标): The goals of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects by the centenary of the CPC’s founding in 2021 and building a great modern socialist country in all respects by the centenary of the People’s Republic of China’s founding in 2049. At the critical juncture of comprehensively advancing the building of a strong country and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese-path modernization, deeply grasping the logical framework of Xi Jinping’s important discourse on comprehensively deepening reform is of great significance for guiding the great cause of reform and opening up in the New Era and for facilitating the early realization of the “second centenary goal.” [n]

党的十八届三中全会以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央团结带领全党全军全国各族人民，围绕新时代为什么要全面深化改革、怎样推进全面深化改革等重大问题，以改革新思想、新观点、新论断指导新实践、引领新变革、推动新发展，实现改革由局部探索、破冰突围到系统集成、全面深化的转变，形成了习近平总书记关于全面深化改革的重要论述。党的二十届三中全会指出：“改革开放是党和人民事业大踏步赶上时代的重要法宝。党的十一届三中全会是划时代的，开启了改革开放和社会主义现代化建设新时期。党的十八届三中全会也是划时代的，开启了新时代全面深化改革、系统整体设计推进改革新征程，开创了我国改革开放全新局面。”[1]在以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业的关键节点，深刻领悟习近平总书记关于全面深化改革重要论述的逻辑理路，对于引领新时代改革开放伟大事业、助推“第二个百年”奋斗目标早日实现具有重大意义。

I. The Generative Logic of Xi Jinping’s Important Discourse on Comprehensively Deepening Reform

一、习近平总书记关于全面深化改革重要论述的生成逻辑

Xi Jinping’s important discourse on comprehensively deepening reform upholds and develops the scientific socialist view of reform. It not only summarizes the successful experience of more than forty years of reform and opening up but also adapts to the adjustment and transformation of the principal contradiction in Chinese society in the New Era. Moreover, it embodies the reform wisdom of fine traditional Chinese culture, possessing a broad and profound theoretical foundation, practical background, historical origin, and cultural root.

习近平总书记关于全面深化改革的重要论述坚持和发展了科学社会主义改革观，既总结了改革开放四十多年来的成功经验，又适应了新时代中国社会主要矛盾的调整转换，更蕴含了中华优秀传统文化的改革智慧，具有广泛深厚的理论基础、现实背景、历史渊源和文化根基。

(1) Upholding Fundamental Principles and Breaking New Ground in the Scientific Socialist View of Reform

（一）对科学社会主义改革观的守正创新

Direction determines the future; the path decides destiny. Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the Chinese Communists represented by Comrade Xi Jinping have

方向决定前途，道路决定命运。党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为代表的中国共产党人志不改、道不变，始终坚持科学社会主义基本原则，始终对中国特色社会主义道路、理论、制度和文化高度自信，把以经济建设为中心同坚持四项基本原则、坚持改革开放这两个基本点统一于新时代中国特色社会主义伟大实践，同时以巨大的政治勇气有领导有步骤地全面改革体制机制，推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化。这表明，中国改什么、怎么改都要从基本国情出发、从经济社会发展实际出发，要以是否符合最广大人民根本利益为根本尺度，不能把西方的理论、观点生搬硬套在中国身上，而要始终坚持进一步全面深化改革的正确方向。

(2) A Historical Summary of the Experiences and Lessons of Reform and Opening Up

（二）对改革开放经验教训的历史总结

On December 18, 2018, in his speech at the celebration of the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “Reform and opening up was a great awakening of our Party, and it was this great awakening that gave birth to our Party’s great creation from theory to practice. Reform and opening up was a great revolution in the history of the development of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation, and it was this great revolution that propelled the great leap forward of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics!”[2] General Secretary Xi Jinping highly affirmed the historical achievements of reform and opening up. In planning the comprehensive deepening of reform in the New Era, he continued to boldly experiment and courageously change, proposing the overall goal of improving and developing the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics and advancing the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. He put forward important theses such as giving full play to the decisive role of the market in resource allocation, unswervingly following the path of socialist political development with Chinese characteristics, strengthening the construction of the core socialist values system, building a modern military force system with Chinese characteristics, and implementing a more proactive opening-up strategy, making reform and opening up the most distinctive feature and the most magnificent scene of contemporary China.

2018年12月18日，习近平总书记在庆祝改革开放40周年大会上的讲话中指出：“改革开放是我们党的一次伟大觉醒，正是这个伟大觉醒孕育了我们党从理论到实践的伟大创造。改革开放是中国人民和中华民族发展史上一次伟大革命，正是这个伟大革命推动了中国特色社会主义事业的伟大飞跃！”[2]习近平总书记高度肯定改革开放的历史成就，在谋划新时代全面深化改革中继续大胆地试、勇敢地改，提出了完善和发展中国特色社会主义制度、推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化的总目标，提出了充分发挥市场在资源配置中的决定性作用、坚定不移走中国特色社会主义政治发展道路、加强社会主义核心价值体系建设、构建中国特色现代军事力量体系、实行更加积极主动的开放战略等重要论断，使改革开放成为当代中国最显著的特征、最壮丽的气象。

(3) Flexible Adaptation to Changes in the Principal Contradiction in Society

（三）对社会主要矛盾变化的灵活调适

Reform is an important driving force for the development of social history and also a flexible adaptation to changes in the principal contradiction in society. On December 3, 2013, in his speech at the 11th collective study session of the Political Bureau of the 18th Central Committee, Xi Jinping pointed out: “The interaction and mutual constraint between productive forces and relations of production, and between the economic base and the superstructure, govern the entire process of social development. Relations of production must be suited to the state of the productive forces, and the superstructure must be suited to the state of the economic base; their combined action constitutes the contradictory movement of the whole society.”[3] Since the New Era, the principal contradiction in Chinese society has been transformed into the contradiction between the people’s ever-growing needs for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development. Facing the people’s growing practical needs in the economic, political, cultural, social, and ecological civilization spheres, Chinese Communists have acted with vigor and enterprise, grasped the general trend of historical development, seized the opportunity of historical transformation, used the new development philosophy to guide the transformation of the development model, promoted high-quality development with new quality productive forces, continuously improved the quality and efficiency of development, focused on solving the problem of unbalanced and inadequate development, and promoted the people’s sharing of the fruits of reform and development.

改革是社会历史发展的重要推动力，也是对社会主要矛盾变化的灵活调适。2013年12月3日，习近平在十八届中央政治局第十一次集体学习时的讲话中指出：“生产力和生产关系、经济基础和上层建筑相互作用、相互制约，支配着整个社会发展进程。生产关系一定要适合生产力状况，上层建筑一定要适合经济基础状况，它们的共同作用构成整个社会的矛盾运动。”[3]新时代以来，我国社会主要矛盾已经转化为人民日益增长的美好生活需要和不平衡不充分的发展之间的矛盾，面对人民群众在经济、政治、文化、社会、生态文明等方面日益增长的现实需要，中国共产党人奋发有为、锐意进取，把握历史发展大势，抓住历史变革时机，以新发展理念引领发展模式转变，以新质生产力推动高质量发展，不断提升发展质量和效益，着力解决发展不平衡不充分问题，推动人民群众共享改革发展成果。

(4) Refining the Wisdom of Reform from Excellent Traditional Culture

（四）对优秀传统文化中改革智慧的提炼

The excellent traditional Chinese culture, with its long history and profound depth, not only contains the civilizational traits and innovative consciousness of discarding the old and establishing the new and of constant renewal and daily progress, but also possesses the development concept and enterprising spirit of upholding the fundamental principles without being conservative and respecting the ancients without restoring the old. This provides a broad and deep cultural foundation for further comprehensively deepening reform in the New Era. On why comprehensive deepening of reform is necessary, General Secretary Xi Jinping has quoted phrases from traditional Chinese classics such as “If you can renew yourself for one day, then you can renew yourself every day, and continue to renew yourself day after day,” “The wise change with the times; the knowledgeable adapt to circumstances,” and “When a situation reaches its limit, it must change; when it changes, it becomes viable; when it becomes viable, it endures.” These indicate that the Chinese nation has always used the wisdom of reform to innovate material civilization, cultural-ethical progress, and political civilization, requiring the abandonment of outdated old concepts, the breaking of old frameworks that restrict development, the exploration of institutional innovation in socialism with Chinese characteristics, and the construction of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the integration of history, reality, and the future. On how to advance comprehensive deepening of reform, General Secretary Xi Jinping has quoted vivid classics such as “One who does not plan

中华优秀传统文化源远流长、博大精深，不仅蕴含革故鼎新、辉光日新的文明特质和创新意识，而且具有守正不守旧、尊古不复古的发展观念和进取精神，为新时代进一步全面深化改革提供了广泛深厚的文化根基。关于为什么要全面深化改革，习近平总书记引用了中国传统典籍中的“苟日新，日日新，又日新”，“明者因时而变，知者随事而制”，“穷则变，变则通，通则久”等话语，表明中华民族始终以改革智慧革新物质文明、精神文明和政治文明，要求摒弃不合时宜的旧观念，冲破制约发展的旧框框，探索中国特色社会主义制度创新，在历史、现实与未来的交融中建设中华民族现代文明。关于怎样推进全面深化改革，习近平总书记引用了“不谋全局者，不足谋一域”，“天行健，君子以自强不息”，“天下难事，必作于易；天下大事，必作于细”等鲜活经典，强调从战略大局出发考虑改革全局，做到向前展望、超前思维、提前谋划；指出改革开放只有进行时、没有完成时，必须敢于啃硬骨头、敢于涉险滩、敢于闯难关，发扬敢闯敢干的改革勇气和自我革新的奋斗精神，以进一步全面深化改革解决中国式现代化建设中的实际问题。

II. The Core Essence of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s Important Discourse on Comprehensively Deepening Reform

二、习近平总书记关于全面深化改革重要论述的核心要义

General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important discourse on comprehensively deepening reform is far-reaching in vision, rich in content, and systematic in completeness. It clarifies the forward direction, major themes, value orientation, mode of thinking, and the guarantees for realization of comprehensively deepening reform. We must profoundly comprehend and fully grasp its core essence, and implement it in the reform practice of the New Era.

习近平总书记关于全面深化改革的重要论述立意深远、内涵丰富、系统完整，明确了全面深化改革的前进方向、重大主题、价值取向、思维方式及其实现保障，我们必须深刻领悟和全面把握其核心要义，并在新时代改革实践中贯彻落实。

(1) Upholding the Party’s Overall Leadership and Steadfastly Maintaining the Correct Direction of Reform

（一）坚持党的全面领导，坚定改革正确方向

The Party leads everything — the Party, the government, the military, the civilian population, the east, the west, the south, the north, the center. The leadership of the Communist Party of China is not only the most essential feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics but also the greatest strength of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and it is, moreover, the firm guarantee for further comprehensively deepening reform and advancing Chinese-path modernization. On the new journey of the New Era, to further comprehensively deepen reform and advance Chinese-path modernization, it is necessary to give full play to the Party’s core leadership role of exercising overall leadership and coordinating all parties, to uphold Xi Jinping’s role as the core of the Party Central Committee and the core of the entire Party in steering the course, to uphold the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, to integrate Party leadership into every aspect and the entire process of reform, to uphold scientific governance, democratic governance, and law-based governance, to improve the Party’s methods and means of leading reform, to enhance the Party’s governing capacity and leadership level, and to continuously raise the Party’s ability and resolve to set the direction, plan the overall situation, formulate policies, and promote reform, ensuring that reform always strides forward on the new journey toward building a great modern socialist country in all respects and achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

党政军民学，东西南北中，党是领导一切的，中国共产党的领导既是中国特色社会主义最本质的特征，也是中国特色社会主义制度的最大优势，更是进一步全面深化改革、推进中国式现代化的坚强保证。新时代新征程，进一步全面深化改革、推进中国式现代化建设，必须发挥党总揽全局、协调各方的领导核心作用，坚持习近平总书记作为党中央核心、全党核心的领航掌舵，坚持习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想的科学指引，把党的领导贯穿改革各方面全过程，坚持科学执政、民主执政、依法执政，完善党领导改革的方式方法，提高党的执政能力和领导水平，不断提高党把方向、谋大局、定政策、促改革的能力和定力，确保改革始终朝着全面建成社会主义现代化强国和实现中华民族伟大复兴的新征程阔步前进。

(2) Keeping Close to Chinese-Path Modernization and Clarifying the Era’s Theme of Reform

（二）紧扣中国式现代化，明晰改革时代主题

Reform and opening up is the crucial move that determines the success or failure of Chinese-path modernization. To further comprehensively deepen reform, it is necessary to keep close to the theme of advancing Chinese-path modernization, to take the improvement and development of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics and the modernization of China’s system and capacity for governance as the overall goal, to combine goal orientation with problem orientation, to make targeted, coordinated, and sustained efforts, to resolutely remove the ideological and institutional obstacles that hinder the advancement of Chinese-path modernization, to focus on cracking deep-seated institutional barriers and structural contradictions, and to continuously inject strong momentum into Chinese-path modernization and provide a solid institutional guarantee. Furthermore, further comprehensively deepening reform must also conform to the new trends of the times, the new requirements of practical development, and the new expectations of the people, to advance the comprehensive construction of a great modern socialist country with the firm determination to take real action and dare to tackle tough issues, to continuously inject strong momentum into Chinese-path modernization in all respects, and to constantly expand the development space of Chinese-path modernization.

改革开放是决定中国式现代化成败的关键一招。进一步全面深化改革，必须紧扣推进中国式现代化这个主题，以完善和发展中国特色社会主义制度、推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化为总目标，坚持目标导向和问题导向相结合，精准发力、协同发力、持续发力，坚决破除妨碍推进中国式现代化的思想观念和体制机制弊端，着力破解深层次体制机制障碍和结构性矛盾，不断为中国式现代化注入强劲动力、提供有力制度保障。此外，进一步全面深化改革还要顺应时代发展新趋势、实践发展新要求、人民群众新期待，以动真格、敢碰硬的坚强决心全面推进社会主义现代化强国建设，全方位为中国式现代化源源不断注入强大动力，不断拓展中国式现代化的发展空间。

(3) Adhering to a People-Centered Approach and Demonstrating the Value Orientation of Reform

（三）坚持以人民为中心，彰显改革价值取向

The people’s aspiration for a better life is the original aspiration and founding mission of the Communist Party of China in pursuing reform and promoting development. To further comprehensively deepen reform, it is necessary to adhere to a people-centered approach, to insist on taking the fundamental interests of the broadest majority of the people as the fundamental starting point and ultimate goal of all work, to insist on taking whether the people support, approve, or are satisfied as the fundamental basis for formulating reform policies, to plan and advance reform from the perspective of the people’s overall interests, fundamental interests, and long-term interests, to identify the focal points and breakthroughs for reform in the New Era from the people’s urgent concerns and difficulties, to vigorously introduce reform measures that address the people’s urgent needs and reflect their aspirations, to make solid efforts to carry out reform practices that benefit people’s livelihoods, warm their hearts, and align with their wishes, to conform to the people’s will, respect public opinion, pay attention to people’s conditions, and devote efforts to people’s livelihoods, to follow the Party’s mass line in the New Era, to let the people share the fruits of reform and opening up, to give the people a greater sense of gain, happiness, and security, and to inspire the people to consciously devote themselves to the great cause of building a strong country and achieving national rejuvenation.

人民对美好生活的向往就是中国共产党抓改革、促发展的初心使命。进一步全面深化改革必须坚持以人民为中心，坚持把最广大人民根本利益作为一切工作的根本出发点和落脚点，坚持把人民拥护不拥护、赞成不赞成、高兴不高兴作为制定改革政策的根本依据，从人民的整体利益、根本利益、长远利益出发谋划和推进改革，从老百姓急难愁盼中找准新时代改革的发力点和突破口，大力推出民生所急、民心所向的改革举措，着力办好惠民生、暖民心、顺民意的改革实事，顺应民心、尊重民意、关注民情、致力民生，走好新时代党的群众路线，让人民共享改革开放成果，让人民群众有更多获得感、幸福感、安全感，激励人民自觉投身强国建设、民族复兴伟业。

(4) Accurately Grasping the Systems Concept and Mapping Out the Overall Objectives of Reform

（四）准确把握系统观念，擘画改革总体目标

Further comprehensively deepening reform is a “grand chess game”; it is necessary to grasp the principal contradiction and the principal aspect of the contradiction, and to map out the overall situation of reform from a holistic perspective. On the one hand, it is necessary to adhere to systematic thinking, to correctly handle the relationships between emancipating the mind and seeking truth from facts, between overall advancement and breakthroughs on key points, between the whole and the parts, between top-level design and “crossing the river by feeling the stones,” between boldness in action and steadiness in steps, and between reform, development, and stability, to emphasize the systemic, holistic, and coordinated nature of comprehensively deepening reform, to coordinate the progress of reforms in various fields, to ensure that various reform measures complement each other in policy orientation, promote each other in the implementation process, and reinforce each other in reform outcomes, thereby forming an overall effect of comprehensively deepening reform. On the other hand, it is necessary to adhere to problem orientation, focus on key breakthroughs, and pilot projects first, to take economic system reform as the driving force for further comprehensively deepening reform, to focus on building a high-level socialist market economy system, to give full play to the decisive role of the market in resource allocation and better play the role of the government, to uphold and improve the basic socialist economic system, to improve the macroeconomic governance system and the systems and mechanisms for promoting high-quality development, and to promote a better alignment between productive forces and relations of production, and between the economic base and the superstructure.

进一步全面深化改革是一步“大棋局”，必须抓住主要矛盾和矛盾的主要方面，以整体视野擘画改革全局。一方面要坚持系统思维，正确处理好解放思想和实事求是的关系、整体推进和重点突破的关系、全局和局部的关系、顶层设计和摸着石头过河的关系、胆子要大和步子要稳的关系、改革发展稳定的关系，注重全面深化改革的系统性、整体性、协同性，统筹各领域改革进展，促进各项改革举措在政策取向上相互配合、在实施过程中相互促进、在改革成效上相得益彰，形成全面深化改革的整体效应。另一方面要坚持问题导向、重点突进、试点先行，以经济体制改革为牵引进一步全面深化改革，聚焦构建高水平社会主义市场经济体制，充分发挥市场在资源配置中的决定性作用，更好发挥政府作用，坚持和完善社会主义基本经济制度，健全宏观经济治理体系和推动高质量发展体制机制，推动生产力和生产关系、经济基础和上层建筑更好相适应。

III. The Value Implications of Xi Jinping’s Important Discourse on Comprehensively Deepening Reform

三、习近平总书记关于全面深化改革重要论述的价值意蕴

Xi Jinping’s important discourse on comprehensively deepening reform constitutes the “reform chapter” of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. It not only inherits and develops the Chinese Communist Party’s view of reform and development but also deepens the overall understanding of socialist reform, and, moreover, provides a scientific guide for further comprehensively deepening reform.

习近平总书记关于全面深化改革的重要论述是习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想的“改革篇”，不仅继承和发展了中国共产党的改革发展观，而且深化了对社会主义社会改革的整体认知，更为进一步全面深化改革提供了科学指南。

(1) Inheriting and Developing the Marxist View of Reform

（一）继承和发展了马克思主义改革观

Engels pointed out: “The so-called ‘socialist society’ is not a fixed and unchanging thing; like any other social system, it should be regarded as a society that is constantly changing and reforming.” [4] Xi Jinping’s important discourse on comprehensively deepening reform is precisely a major theoretical achievement summarized on the basis of the national conditions and characteristics of the times in the New Era, inheriting the historical materialist view of reform, and accurately judging the dialectical relationship between productive forces and relations of production, and between the economic base and the superstructure. For example, the discourse that “reform and opening up is the cause of hundreds of millions of people” inherits and develops the basic principle that the masses of the people are the subjects of social history; the discourse on “deepening the reform of the science and technology system and accelerating the building of a strong science and technology country” is a contemporary manifestation of the classic statement that “science and technology are also productive forces”; the discourse that “reform and opening up has no finish line, only a starting line” is a profound grasp of the law of the basic contradiction of society, and so on. It can be seen that further comprehensively deepening reform of socialism with Chinese characteristics is also a long-term historical process that must be carried forward from generation to generation.

恩格斯指出：“所谓‘社会主义社会’不是一种一成不变的东西，而应当和任何其他社会制度一样，把它看成是经常变化和改革的社会。”[4]习近平总书记关于全面深化改革的重要论述正是基于新时代中国国情和时代特征，承继历史唯物主义改革观，准确研判生产力与生产关系、经济基础与上层建筑辩证关系所总结出的重大理论成果。比如，“改革开放是亿万人民自己的事业”的论述继承和发展了人民群众是社会历史主体的基本原理；“深化科技体制改革、加快建设科技强国”的论述就是“科学技术也是生产力”这一经典论述的时代彰显；“改革开放只有进行时没有完成时”的论述就是对社会基本矛盾规律的深刻把握，等等。可见，对中国特色社会主义的进一步全面深化改革也是一个持久性的历史过程，必须一代又一代人接力干下去。

(2) Deepening the Chinese Communist Party’s Overall Understanding of Socialist Reform

（二）深化了中国共产党对社会主义改革的整体认知

The Chinese Communist Party’s understanding of socialist reform has undergone a process of development and change. During the historical turning point, Chinese Communists represented by Comrade Deng Xiaoping, starting from correcting the ideological line of “emancipating the mind and seeking truth from facts,” and based on Marxist epistemology and the successful experience of the Chinese Communist Party in leading revolution and construction, put forward famous theses such as “without reform and opening up, there is only a dead end,” “reform is China’s second revolution,” “revolution is the liberation of productive forces, and reform is also the liberation of productive forces,” thereby initiating the Chinese Communist Party’s cognitive awakening regarding socialist reform. Since the New Era, Chinese Communists represented by Comrade Xi Jinping, based on achieving the Two Centenary Goals [n], with great historical initiative, immense political courage, and a strong sense of responsibility, have dared to break free from the shackles of ideology and break through the barriers of entrenched interests, successively putting forward important theses such as “reform and opening up is the crucial move that determines the fate of contemporary China,” “comprehensively deepening reform has direction, positions, and principles,” and “ensuring that comprehensively deepening reform takes root on the ground,” opening a new chapter in comprehensively deepening reform and advancing reform through systematic overall design. In short, reform and opening up has not only become the most distinctive political banner and ideological character of contemporary Chinese Communists but also an important magic weapon for the cause of the Party and the people to catch up with the times in big strides.

中国共产党对社会主义改革的认识经历了一个发展变化的过程。在历史转折时期，以邓小平同志为代表的中国共产党人从端正“解放思想、实事求是”的思想路线着手，基于马克思主义认识论和中国共产党领导革命与建设的成功经验，提出了“不改革开放，只能是死路一条”，“改革是中国的第二次革命”，“革命是解放生产力，改革也是解放生产力”等著名论断，从而开启了中国共产党对社会主义改革的认知觉醒。新时代以来，以习近平同志为代表的中国共产党人立足于实现“两个一百年”奋斗目标，以伟大的历史主动、巨大的政治勇气、强烈的责任担当，敢于冲破思想观念束缚和突破利益固化藩篱，先后提出“改革开放是决定当代中国命运的关键一招”，“全面深化改革是有方向、有立场、有原则的”，“推动全面深化改革落地生根”等重要论断，开启了全面深化改革、系统整体设计推进改革的新篇章。总之，改革开放不仅成为当代中国共产党人最鲜明的政治旗帜和思想品格，更是党和人民事业大踏步赶上时代的重要法宝。

(3) Providing a Scientific Guide for Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform

（三）为进一步全面深化改革提供了科学指南

At present, China is in a critical period of comprehensively advancing the great cause of building a strong country and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese-path modernization, and it urgently needs new reform ideas to guide new reform practices. We must hold high the great banner of reform and opening up, adhere to Xi Jinping’s important discourse on comprehensively deepening reform as the scientific guide, continue to improve and develop the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, advance the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, focus on the “five priorities” of building a high-level socialist market economy system, developing whole-process people’s democracy, building a socialist cultural power, improving the quality of people’s lives, and building a beautiful China, implement reforms with the spirit of driving a nail, scientifically formulate reform task books, timetables, and priority sequences, and by 2035 basically achieve the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, basically realize socialist modernization, and lay a solid foundation for fully building a modern socialist country by the middle of this century.

当前，我国正处于以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业的关键时期，亟需改革新思想指导改革新实践。我们要高举改革开放伟大旗帜，坚持以习近平总书记关于全面深化改革的重要论述为科学指南，继续完善和发展中国特色社会主义制度，推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化，围绕构建高水平社会主义市场经济体制、发展全过程人民民主、建设社会主义文化强国、提高人民生活品质以及建设美丽中国“五个聚焦”，以钉钉子精神抓好改革落实，科学制定改革任务书、时间表、优先序，到二〇三五年基本实现国家治理体系和治理能力现代化，基本实现社会主义现代化，为到本世纪中叶全面建成社会主义现代化强国奠定坚实基础。
