Abstract:

The grand historical view seeks to understand the development of human society and to reveal the inevitable trends from the perspectives of history, international vision, and knowledge. This paper examines in three dimensions the CPC's great historical view in the practice of Chinese revolution, construction, and reform. The first dimension is that the Communist Party of China unites and leads the people to continuously promote China's economic and social development strategy. The “two-step” development strategy of the 1960s and the “three-step” development strategy of the reform and opening up era have given way to the new “three-step” development strategy in the era of seizing important strategic opportunities. The second dimension is that the Communist Party of China has always attached importance to farmers, rural areas and agriculture. It led farmers to “fight local tyrants and divide land” in the new democratic period; and it guided farmers to take the road of cooperation in the period of socialist revolution and construction. In the period of reform and opening-up and socialist modernization, the CPC promoted the responsibility system of agricultural production. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, “agriculture, rural areas and farmers” have made historic achievements. The third dimension is to propose and continuously promote and realize the building of a well-off society in an all-around way. Since the reform and opening-up, the CPC has proposed, promoted, and realized the building of a well-off society, worked hard, won the battle against poverty, and delivered a world-historic miracle.

Key words: grand view of history, correct view of party history, economic and social development, "agriculture,rural areas and farmers", poverty alleviation, socialist modernization
