China Makes Active Contribution to
World Poverty Reduction
Preface One
Zhang Shujun
Member of the National Committee of the Chinese Peoples Political Consultative
Conference, former De put y Director General and researcher of Part y Histor y
Research Center of the CPC Central Committee
Reducing poverty is a global challenge. Lifting the worlds largest
developing country out of poverty would be a feat unprecedented in
human history. In order to introduce Chinas experience in poverty
reduction to the rest of the world, Poverty Alleviation: Experience
and Insights o f the C ommunist Party o f C hina is published by
the Contemporary World Press. The book is commissioned by the
International Department of the CPC Central Committee and compiled
by Professor Zhang Zhanbin of the Party School of the CPC Central
Committee. With a focus on poverty alleviation, it describes how the CPC
leads the Chinese people in fighting poverty. In particular, it discusses the
main achievements, practices, experiences and learnings from the massive,
targeted poverty alleviation efforts made since the 18th National Congress
of the CPC. The book is a refreshing and inspiring read.
Over the years, China has been battling poverty and moving towards
a moderately prosperous society. Since the founding of the Peoples
Republic of China 70 years ago, the Communist Party of China has
united the Chinese people and led them in declaring war on poverty.
Through the explorations of the CPC and the Chinese people, a path of
poverty alleviation and development with Chinese characteristics has been
identified. As a result, more than 700 million people have been lifted out
of poverty and the Chinese people live a largely well-off life. China has
brought more people out of poverty than any other country in the world.
It was also one of the first countries that had achieved the United Nations
Millennium Development Goals. During the 18th National Congress of
the CPC, the goal of completing the building of a moderately prosperous
society in all respects was announced. This means that by 2020, by current
Chinese standards, all the rural poor and poverty-stricken counties will
be lifted out of poverty, thus ending poverty in entire regions. Poverty
alleviation is the most critical indicator for building a moderately
prosperous society in all respects. The CPC has pledged to deliver a
moderately prosperous society for the Chinese people, a pledge that
highlights the Partys approach rely on the people, drive development
for the people, and share the fruits of development with them. It also
shows the confidence and determination of the CPC Central Committee
with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core in winning the battle against poverty
in the new era and securing a decisive victory in building a moderately
prosperous society in all respects. Poverty Alleviation: Experience and
Insights of the Communist Party of China centers on poverty alleviation,
an important topic, and showcases the commitment of the Communist
Party of China. It touches upon the topic in terms of the features of
the day, main tasks and the development path in the new era. Its highly
relevant in our time and is a valuable reference.
Looking ahead, we see both signs of hope and heavy responsibilities.
At present, most of the poor people in China are concentrated in deep
poverty-stricken areas. These areas are the poorest of the poor and face
the biggest challenges in alleviating poverty. The problems in the final
stage of poverty eradication are more complicated, and the tasks more
arduous. Thus, more efforts are needed. This book offers a full review
of Chinas efforts in poverty reduction. It discusses the achievements
and problems, as well as positive experience and misunderstandings.
Moreover, it summarizes the problems that have occurred during
Chinas poverty eradication campaign, and analyzes reasons behind these
problems and phenomena. It then lays out the five experiences andfour
misunderstandings in this regard with a view to offering solutions to
address the root causes. It is therefore a very useful book for countries and
regions committed to ending poverty.
Eliminating poverty is a common mission of mankind. China aims
to win the battle against poverty and build a moderately prosperous
society in all respects an aspiration of the Chinese nation for thousands
of years and a mission of the Communist Party of China. In order to
promote world peace and development and strengthen global governance,
China made its own proposal of joining hands to eradicate poverty and
building a global community with a shared future. Over the years, while
working to eliminate poverty at home, China has been actively helping
other developing nations, especially the least developed countries, to
eradicate poverty. At present, poverty reduction in the world remains an
arduous task. In line with the needs of the world anti-poverty cause, this
book gives a full account of Chinas practices in poverty reduction, and
makes Chinese experience and wisdom available to other countries. It is
yet another positive contribution China has made to the rest of world.
I admire the mission and content of Poverty Alleviation: Experience
and Insights of the Communist Party of China. I have written these words
from the bottom of my heart as a preface to the book.
