Join Hands on the Path Towards Modernization
携手同行现代化之路
– Keynote Address at the CPC in Dialogue with World Political Parties High-level Meeting
——在中国共产党与世界政党高层对话会上的主旨讲话
Leaders of political parties from around the world, Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends,
尊敬的各位政党领导人，女士们，先生们，朋友们：
It gives me great pleasure to join all of you for the discussion on "Path Towards Modernization: The Responsibility of Political Parties".
很高兴同大家相聚，探讨“现代化道路：政党的责任”这一重要命题。
The history of human development is full of twists and turns. Similarly, the journey of each country to explore the path to modernization is also arduous. In today's world, multiple challenges and crises are intertwined. The global economic recovery remains sluggish, the development gap is widening, ecological environment is deteriorating, and the Cold War mentality is lingering. Humanity's modernization process has once again reached a crossroads of history.
人类社会发展进程曲折起伏，各国探索现代化道路的历程充满艰辛。当今世界，多重挑战和危机交织叠加，世界经济复苏艰难，发展鸿沟不断拉大，生态环境持续恶化，冷战思维阴魂不散，人类社会现代化进程又一次来到历史的十字路口。
Polarization or common prosperity? Pure materialistic pursuit or coordinated material and cultural-ethical advancement? Draining the pond to catch the fish or creating harmony between man and nature? Zero-sum game or win-win cooperation? Copying other countries' development model or achieving independent development in light of national conditions? What kind of modernization do we need and how can we achieve it? Confronted with these questions, political parties as an important force steering and driving the modernization process are duty bound to provide answers. Here, I wish to share some of my observations.
两极分化还是共同富裕？物质至上还是物质精神协调发展？竭泽而渔还是人与自然和谐共生？零和博弈还是合作共赢？照抄照搬别国模式还是立足自身国情自主发展？我们究竟需要什么样的现代化？怎样才能实现现代化？面对这一系列的现代化之问，政党作为引领和推动现代化进程的重要力量，有责任作出回答。在这里，我愿谈几点看法。
We must put the people first and ensure modernization is people-centered. The people are the creators of history and are the strongest bedrock and force in advancing modernization. The ultimate goal of modernization is people's free and well-rounded development. For a modernization path to work and work well, it must put the people first. Modernization is not only about indicators and statistics on the paper but more about the delivery of a happy and stable life for the people. With a focus on the people's aspirations for a better life and further progress of civilization, political parties should strive to achieve material abundance, political integrity, cultural-ethical enrichment, social stability, and pleasant living environments so that modernization will better address the concerns and meet diversified needs of the people. In this way, modernization will promote the sustainable development of humanity by not only increasing the wellbeing of this generation but also protecting the rights and interest of future generations.
——我们要坚守人民至上理念，突出现代化方向的人民性。人民是历史的创造者，是推进现代化最坚实的根基、最深厚的力量。现代化的最终目标是实现人自由而全面的发展。现代化道路最终能否走得通、行得稳，关键要看是否坚持以人民为中心。现代化不仅要看纸面上的指标数据，更要看人民的幸福安康。政党要锚定人民对美好生活的向往，顺应人民对文明进步的渴望，努力实现物质富裕、政治清明、精神富足、社会安定、生态宜人，让现代化更好回应人民各方面诉求和多层次需要，既增进当代人福祉，又保障子孙后代权益，促进人类社会可持续发展。
We must uphold the principle of independence and explore diversified paths towards modernization. Modernization is not “an exclusive patent" of a small handful of countries, nor is it a single answer question. It cannot be realized by a cookie cutter approach or simple "copy and paste". For any country to achieve modernization, it needs not only to follow the general laws governing the process, but more importantly consider its own national conditions and unique features. It is the people of a country that are in the best position to tell what kind of modernization best suits them. Developing countries have the right and ability to independently explore the modernization path with their distinctive features based on their national realities. We must develop our country and our nation with our own strength, and we must maintain a firm grasp on the future of our country's development and progress. We should respect and support the development paths independently chosen by different peoples to jointly usher in a new prospect for humanity's modernization that is like a garden where a hundred flowers bloom.
——我们要秉持独立自主原则，探索现代化道路的多样性。现代化不是少数国家的“专利品”，也不是非此即彼的“单选题”，不能搞简单的千篇一律、“复制粘贴”。一个国家走向现代化，既要遵循现代化一般规律，更要立足本国国情，具有本国特色。什么样的现代化最适合自己，本国人民最有发言权。发展中国家有权利也有能力基于自身国情自主探索各具特色的现代化之路。要坚持把国家和民族发展放在自己力量的基点上，把国家发展进步的命运牢牢掌握在自己手中，尊重和支持各国人民对发展道路的自主选择，共同绘就百花齐放的人类社会现代化新图景。
We must uphold fundamental principles and break new ground and ensure the continuity of the modernization process. In the face of various new issues, conditions and challenges in the modernization process, political parties should boldly take on responsibilities and excel in their work. We should break the shackles of stale thinking, remove institutional barriers, explore new methods and new approaches, and break new ground in theories and practices to instill unceasing dynamism into the modernization process. We should work together to reform and develop the global governance system and make the international order more just and equitable as we advance humanity's modernization in an environment of equal rights, equal opportunities and fair rules for all.
——我们要树立守正创新意识，保持现代化进程的持续性。面对现代化进程中遇到的各种新问题新情况新挑战，政党要敢于担当、勇于作为，冲破思想观念束缚，破除体制机制弊端，探索优化方法路径，不断实现理论和实践上的创新突破，为现代化进程注入源源不断的强大活力。要携手推进全球治理体系改革和建设，推动国际秩序朝着更加公正合理的方向发展，在不断促进权利公平、机会公平、规则公平的努力中推进人类社会现代化。
We must help others to succeed while seeking our own success and ensure all can enjoy the outcomes of modernization. Humanity lives in a community with a shared future where we rise and fall together. For any country to achieve modernization, it should pursue common development through solidarity and cooperation and follow the principles of joint contribution, shared benefits and win-win outcome. The frontrunners should sincerely support other countries in their development. One will not be seen in a more favourable light after blowing out others' lamp; nor will they go farther by blocking others' paths. We should share opportunities, create a future together and make the pie of humanity's modernization bigger to ensure more people enjoy the outcomes of modernization in a fairer way. We stand firmly opposed to the practice of preserving one's own development privilege by suppressing and containing other countries' endeavor to achieve modernization.
——我们要弘扬立己达人精神，增强现代化成果的普惠性。人类是一个一荣俱荣、一损俱损的命运共同体。任何国家追求现代化，都应该秉持团结合作、共同发展的理念，走共建共享共赢之路。走在前面的国家应该真心帮助其他国家发展。吹灭别人的灯，并不会让自己更加光明；阻挡别人的路，也不会让自己行得更远。要坚持共享机遇、共创未来，共同做大人类社会现代化的“蛋糕”，努力让现代化成果更多更公平惠及各国人民，坚决反对通过打压遏制别国现代化来维护自身发展“特权”。
We must forge ahead with enterprise and ensure firm leadership over modernization. Modernization does not fall into our lap automatically. It is the result of hard work with the strong historical initiative. Political parties are the leading and driving force for modernization. Their values, ability to lead and govern, ethos, willpower and character have a direct bearing on the orientation and future of the modernization process. As an ancient Chinese philosopher said, "He who conquers himself is strong." Political parties should integrate party building with national modernization, forge ahead with enterprise and resolve, and excel themselves. In this way, they will have the confidence, determination and capability to respond to the challenges and questions presented by the times, meet people's expectations, and steer the course and marshal strength for the modernization cause.
——我们要保持奋发有为姿态，确保现代化领导的坚定性。现代化不会从天上掉下来，而是要通过发扬历史主动精神干出来。作为现代化事业的引领和推动力量，政党的价值理念、领导水平、治理能力、精神风貌、意志品质直接关系国家现代化的前途命运。自胜者强。政党要把自身建设和国家现代化建设紧密结合起来，踔厉奋发，勇毅笃行，超越自我，确保始终有信心、有意志、有能力应对好时代挑战、回答好时代命题、呼应好人民期盼，为不断推进现代化进程引领方向、凝聚力量。
