Overview
The term "Chinese modernization," also referred to as "Chinese-style modernization" or "Chinese path to modernization," first appeared consistently in the discourse of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in 2021. A year later, President Xi Jinping formally advanced the concept at the 20th CPC National Congress. The concept crystallizes the CPC\'s decades of governance experience, taking into account China\'s huge population, common prosperity for all, the pursuit of economic, cultural, and ethical progress as a whole, harmony between humanity and nature, and peaceful development. Studies on Chinese Modernization is a series of ten-plus monographs authored by acclaimed Chinese scholars, aiming to offer an overview of the concept and elaborate on its various manifestations such as values selection, national security, digital economy, innovation-driven development, dual circulation, state governance, man-nature harmony, ideological security, the rule of law, energy transformation, and public finance.
Innovation-Driven Development and Chinese Modernization examines China's approach toward scientific research, technological innovation, and industrial production. With its traditional economic development model hindered by growing trade protectionism, unilateralism, and hegemonism, China strives toward a new model based on innovation-driven economic growth, featuring a new pattern of development with domestic circulation as the mainstay and the domestic and international dual circulations reinforcing each other. This book also discusses the policies China has established to support and encourage high-tech enterprise investment, and recommends several different ways in which China can further develop its national scientific and technological strength through a new nationwide system.
