The Essence and Significance of Work Based on Socialist Core Values

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the President of the CPC has put forward a series of new ideas, viewpoints, and judgments around cultivating and practicing socialist core values, forming important theoretical achievements on this topic. The Report to the 19th National Congress further pointed out: “We will advocate prosperity, democracy, civilization, and harmony; advocate freedom, equality, justice, and the rule of law; advocate patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness; and actively cultivate and practice core socialist values.” This is a summary and refinement of the experience in building socialist core values since the 18th National Congress. Implementing the President of the CPC’s important expositions on cultivating and practicing socialist core values is of great and far-reaching significance for advancing the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
