People more confident about Chinese culture
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2012, under the leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, the Party has inherited and integrated the fine elements of traditional Chinese culture with Marxist cultural theories, and transformed the essence of traditional Chinese culture, while instilling among the people a strong sense of confidence in Chinese culture.
Hence, the Chinese civilization has once again unleashed the spiritual strength of traditional Chinese culture in the new era, providing new cultural elements for Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and sublimating Xi's concept of cultural development with Chinese characteristics in the new era. Xi Jinping Thought on Culture, which is based on the development of traditional Chinese culture in the new era, is a combination of Marxist cultural theories and Chinese cultural tenets.
Xi Jinping Thought on Culture is a powerful theoretical tool that will advance the adaptation of Marxist cultural theories to China's real conditions in the new era, in order to regain the rightful place of Chinese culture on the global stage.
