World History and the Century-Long Quest for the Chinese Path

(Abstract)

 

Wu Xiaoming

 

The founding of the Communist Party of China decisively marked the establishment of an essential connection between China’s modernization process and Marxism. This essential connection is based on the Sinicization of Marxism, and has been historically proven through the century-long practice of the Chinese path. The significance of China’s development today to world history, in the new historical context, is that China is accomplishing its task of socialist modernization while offering the possibility of a new type of civilization.
