As the ancients said, "if the power of the world is not prosperous, it will decline; if the governance of the world is not advanced, it will decline.". Governing the country and stabilizing the country is the primary task of all times and all countries, as well as the major task facing the Communist Party of China. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China pointed out that since its establishment, the Communist Party of China has united and led the people, adhered to the combination of the basic principles of Marxism with China's specific reality, won the victory of the Chinese revolution, and profoundly summed up the positive and negative experiences at home and abroad, continued to explore practice, continued reform and innovation, established and improved the socialist system, and formed and developed the party's leadership and economy The system of economy, politics, culture, society, ecological civilization, military affairs, foreign affairs, etc. has strengthened and improved national governance and made historic achievements.

       The great historical turn from chaos to governance

       From 1840 to 1949, there were more than one hundred years of internal and external troubles of the Chinese nation, and the society was scattered. Various political forces appeared on the Chinese political stage in turn, but most of them were ephemeral, and they became the passers-by of "prosperity and death". In more than 100 years, Chinese people have been struggling to find a way to save the nation from subjugation and survival. Various paths have been taken, such as the peasant revolution, the industrial salvation of the country, the constitutional monarchy, the restoration of the monarchy, the bourgeois democratic revolution, and various systems in the West, such as the parliamentary system, the multi-party system, and the presidential system, have been tried. They have improved democracy, liberalism, social Darwinism, anarchism, pragmatism, populism All kinds of doctrines, such as the League doctrine, have been tried, and the result is not workable. China is still in a turbulent period.

       As the old saying goes, "the general trend of the world is to control chaos instead". After the great chaos, there must be great governance. History calls for the true mission bearers. In the repeated comparison of history, in the repeated weighing of various doctrines and paths, in the repeated contests of various political forces, in the repeated choices of the Chinese people, in the fierce struggle of the Chinese people against feudal rule and foreign aggression, and in the combination of Marxism Leninism and the Chinese workers' movement, the Communist Party of China came into being in 1921. Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the Chinese people won the great struggle of national independence and people's liberation, established the people's Republic of China, and realized the great leap from thousands of years of feudal autocratic politics to people's democracy.

       The founding of the people's Republic of China is a great historical turn from chaos to governance in modern China. The system and governance system under the unified leadership of the Communist Party of China have been gradually established, and the national order has been changed, fundamentally reversing the situation of internal and external troubles that have plagued China for more than a century. After the founding of the people's Republic of China, the Central People's government announced: abolish all unequal treaties, cancel foreign debts, withdraw foreign troops from China's territorial airspace and territorial waters, and do not recognize the status of foreign embassies and consulates; establish the new China's foreign policy of "starting from another stove", "cleaning up the house and treating guests" and "one side down", and completely overthrow the three mountains that are pressing on the Chinese people. China is a real country With the historical change from chaos to governance, the Chinese nation has embarked on a great historical journey of rebuilding national confidence and rejuvenation.

Towards good governance: a major task of the Communist Party of China in the new era

       Good governance has been the pursuit of the Chinese nation since ancient times. "Tao Te Ching" points out that: living in a good place, having a good heart, being kind and benevolent, saying good and trusting, being good at governance, doing good and capable, and moving good times. "Good governance" is good governance. This is the first time the word "good governance" has appeared.

       In modern countries, "managing well" is the bottom line and "managing well" is the goal. In feudal and capitalist times, countries all over the world have accumulated rich experience in state governance. How to manage a new society like socialist society is a new subject. Marx and Engels did not encounter the practice of comprehensively governing a socialist country, and many of their principles about the future society are predictive; Lenin died shortly after the October Revolution in Russia, too late to explore and answer the question of socialist state governance in depth; the Soviet Union explored the issue of state governance, and gained some practical experience, but also made mistakes Some mistakes have been made. After our party came into power in the whole country, it actively explored the way of governance in the socialist country. Although serious twists and turns have taken place, it has accumulated rich experience and made significant achievements in the national governance system and capacity. In the 70 years since the founding of the people's Republic of China, political stability, economic development, social harmony and national unity have been in sharp contrast to the continuous chaos in some regions and countries in the world. This shows that our national governance system and governance capacity are good on the whole and basically adapt to China's national conditions and development requirements. At the same time, we should also see that compared with the requirements of China's economic and social development, compared with the expectations of the people, compared with the increasingly fierce international competition in today's world, compared with the realization of long-term peace and stability of the country, there are many aspects of our national governance system and governance capacity that need to be improved.

       To achieve good governance, we must adhere to and improve the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, promote the modernization of national governance system and governance capacity, which is a major task in front of our party. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China proposed that "law is the important tool of governing the country, and good law is the premise of good governance", marking the first time that "good governance" has entered the decision of the plenary session of the Central Committee. Today's world is undergoing a great change that hasn't happened in a century, and China is in a critical period of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Standing at the historical intersection of the two centenary goals, it is of great and far-reaching significance to adhere to and improve the socialist system with Chinese characteristics and to promote the modernization of national governance system and governance capacity for the decisive victory of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way and building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, for the consolidation of the party's executive position and for ensuring the long-term stability of the party and the country. The real realization of social harmony and stability and the long-term stability of the country depends on the system, our superior ability in national governance and the high-quality cadre team. If we want to give full play to the advantages of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, we must modernize the national governance system and capacity in various fields.

       The great declaration of opening a new realm of "China's governance"

The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, from the overall and long-term perspective of the development of the party and the national cause, accurately grasped the evolution direction and law of China's national system and national governance system, and profoundly answered the major political question of "what to adhere to and consolidate, what to improve and develop". It not only clarified the major systems and principles that must be firmly adhered to, but also deployed the major measures to promote the construction of the system The tasks and measures reflect the unity of summing up history and facing the future, the unity of keeping fixed force and reform and innovation, the unity of problem orientation and goal orientation, and will have a significant and far-reaching impact on promoting all aspects of the system to be more mature and more stereotyped, and better transforming China's institutional advantages into the effectiveness of national governance.

       The plenary session made clear the overall goal of upholding and improving the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. The Communist Party of China attaches great importance to system construction. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that by 2035, all aspects of the system will be more perfect, and the modernization of the national governance system and capacity will be basically realized; by the middle of this century, the modernization of the national governance system and capacity will be realized. The Third Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China once again clearly pointed out that in order to better lead the people in the great struggle, construction of great projects, promotion of great undertakings and Realization of great dreams, our party must accelerate the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, and strive to form a more mature and more stereotyped socialist system with Chinese characteristics. This is a major task before our party. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China pointed out that the overall goal of upholding and improving the socialist system with Chinese characteristics and promoting the modernization of national governance system and governance capacity is to achieve remarkable results in all aspects of the system becoming more mature and finalized by the centenary of the founding of our party; by 2035, all aspects of the system will be more perfect and the modernization of national governance system and governance capacity will be basically realized When the people's Republic of China was founded 100 years ago, we will fully modernize the national governance system and capacity, and make the socialist system with Chinese characteristics more consolidated and fully demonstrate its superiority. This strategic arrangement further clarifies the timetable and road map for the construction of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, which has important practical guiding significance.

       The plenary session made clear the key points of adhering to and improving the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. The plenary session put forward 13 key tasks, and made clear the requirements for adhering to and improving the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. The plenary session pointed out that it is a major strategic task for the whole party to adhere to and improve the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. After several generations of continuous struggle of the Communist Party of China, especially the arduous work since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, "we have gnawed a lot of hard bones, but there are still many hard bones to gnaw. We have overcome many difficulties, but there are still many difficulties to overcome. We must not stop, and we must not have the idea of relaxing and resting.". Today's world is in a great change that hasn't happened in a century. The international situation is complex and changeable. The tasks of reform, development and stability, domestic and foreign affairs, national defense, party, country and army management are unprecedented, and the risks and challenges we face are unprecedented. In order to win the battle to prevent and resolve major risks, we must adhere to and improve the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, and give full play to the institutional advantages to cope with the impact of risk challenges.
