Anti-aggression and anti-imperialism are the national contradictions between the Chinese nation and foreign invaders, which constitute a "semi-colonial society" in modern China. After the major western capitalist countries completed the second industrial revolution and entered the stage of imperialism one after another, anti-aggression developed into anti-imperialism.

Anti-feudalism and seeking democracy are class contradictions between China people (including peasants, workers, craftsmen, bourgeoisie, petty bourgeoisie and other revolutionary classes) and feudalism or forces (including landlord class and bureaucratic bourgeoisie), which constitute a "semi-feudal society" in modern China.

Ethnic contradiction and class contradiction are the main contradictions in contemporary China. Through struggle, ethnic contradictions will be transformed into national independence, and class contradictions will be transformed into people being masters of their own affairs. Thus formed the new China.
