Win new victories in building a well-off society in an all-round way, create a new situation in the cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The plenary meeting made the following decisions.

First, fully understand the importance and urgency of promoting cultural reform and development, and more consciously and actively promote the great development and prosperity of socialist culture.

Culture is the blood of the nation and the spiritual home of the people. During the development of China's civilization for more than 5,000 years, people of all ethnic groups have been closely United and constantly striving for self-improvement. * * * * jointly created a profound and long-standing Chinese culture, which provided a strong spiritual force for the development and growth of the Chinese nation and made an indelible contribution to the progress of human civilization.

Since its establishment, China * * Production Party has been a faithful inheritor and promoter of Chinese excellent traditional culture and an active advocate and developer of advanced culture in China. Our party has always attached great importance to leading the progress with culture, and United and led the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country to continuously advance the cause of the party and the people with the new awakening of ideology and culture, the creation of new achievements with theory, and new achievements in cultural construction. Cultural work has played an irreplaceable role in various historical periods of revolution, construction and reform.

Since the reform and opening up, especially since the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, our Party has always placed cultural construction in an important strategic position in the overall work of the Party and the state, adhered to the combination of material civilization and spiritual civilization, and ruled the country by law and morality, promoted the simultaneous development of cultural undertakings and cultural industries, made new achievements in cultural construction, and embarked on a road of cultural development in Socialism with Chinese characteristics. We persisted in emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts, advancing with the times, and constantly promoted the modernization and popularization of Marxism in China, forming and developing the Socialism with Chinese characteristics theoretical system, which provided scientific theoretical guidance for opening up and expanding the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and establishing and perfecting the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system; Persist in promoting the construction of the socialist core value system, arm the whole party with the latest achievements of Marxism in China, educate the people, unite strength with Socialism with Chinese characteristics's ideal, boost morale with the national spirit with patriotism as the core and the spirit of the times with reform and innovation as the core, lead the fashion with the socialist concept of honor and disgrace, and consolidate the ideological and moral foundation of the United struggle of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country; Adhere to the direction of serving the people and socialism and the policy of letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend, carry forward the creative spirit of the broad masses of people and cultural workers, promote the emergence of a large number of outstanding cultural products, and enrich people's spiritual and cultural life; Persist in promoting the reform of cultural system, innovate the concept of cultural development, liberate and develop cultural productive forces, promote the all-round prosperity of cultural undertakings and the healthy development of cultural industries, greatly improve the level of protection of people's basic cultural rights and interests, and greatly improve the status and role of culture in economic and social development; Persist in developing a multi-level and wide-ranging pattern of foreign cultural exchanges, learn from and absorb the outstanding achievements of human civilization, implement the strategy of going abroad with culture, constantly enhance the international influence of Chinese culture, and show the world a brand-new image of China's reform, opening up and high-spirited people. China's cultural reform and development has significantly improved the ideological and moral quality and scientific and cultural quality of the whole nation, promoted the all-round development of people, significantly enhanced the country's cultural soft power, and provided a powerful spiritual force for upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

The world today is in a period of great development, great change and great adjustment. With the in-depth development of world multipolarization and economic globalization, science and technology are changing with each passing day, various ideological and cultural exchanges and encounters are more frequent, the position and role of culture in the competition of comprehensive national strength are more prominent, the task of safeguarding national cultural security is more arduous, and it is more urgent to enhance the national cultural soft power and the international influence of Chinese culture. Contemporary China has entered a critical period of building a well-off society in an all-round way and a crucial period of deepening reform and opening up and accelerating the transformation of economic development mode. Culture has increasingly become an important source of national cohesion and creativity, an important factor in the competition of comprehensive national strength and an important support for economic and social development. Enriching spiritual and cultural life has increasingly become the ardent desire of our people. China is still in and will be in the primary stage of socialism for a long time. The contradiction between people's growing material and cultural needs and backward social production is still the main contradiction in society. Building a well-off society at a higher level that benefits more than one billion people in an all-round way requires people to live a solid and rich material life and enjoy a healthy and rich cultural life. We must seize and make good use of the important period of strategic opportunities for China's development. While insisting on taking economic construction as the center, we should consciously regard cultural prosperity and development as the last word and the top priority of the party in governing and rejuvenating the country. As the basic requirement of thoroughly implementing Scientific Outlook on Development, we should further promote the coordinated development of cultural construction, economic construction, political construction, social construction and ecological civilization construction. Better meet people's spiritual needs, enrich people's spiritual world, enhance people's spiritual strength, and provide strong ideological guarantee, strong spiritual motivation, strong public opinion support and good cultural conditions for continuing to emancipate the mind, persist in reform and opening up, promote scientific development and promote social harmony.

China's cultural field is undergoing extensive and profound changes. There are many favorable conditions to promote the great development and prosperity of culture, but also a series of new situations and problems. China's cultural development has not fully adapted to the economic and social development and the people's growing spiritual and cultural needs. The outstanding contradictions and problems are: some localities and units have insufficient understanding of the importance, necessity and urgency of cultural construction, and the role of culture in promoting the improvement of the quality of national civilization needs to be strengthened urgently; In some fields, morality is out of order, honesty is lacking, and some social members' outlook on life and values are distorted. It is more urgent to lead the social ideological trend with the socialist core value system, and the task of consolidating the ideological and moral foundation of the United struggle of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups is arduous; The ability to guide public opinion needs to be improved, and network construction and management need to be strengthened and improved; There are not enough influential masterpieces, and the guidance for the creation and production of cultural products needs to be increased; The public cultural service system is not perfect, and the cultural development between urban and rural areas and between regions is unbalanced; The cultural industry is small in scale and unreasonable in structure, and the institutional mechanism that restricts the development of cultural productivity has not been fundamentally solved; Culture going abroad is relatively weak, and the international influence of Chinese culture needs to be further improved; The construction of cultural talents needs to be strengthened urgently. To promote cultural reform and development, we must solve these contradictions and problems in time.

The whole party must profoundly realize that advanced socialist culture is the ideological and spiritual banner of Marxist political parties, and cultural construction is an important part of the overall layout of Socialism with Chinese characteristics's cause. Without the active guidance of culture, the great enrichment of the people's spiritual world and the full play of the spiritual strength of the whole nation, it is impossible for a country or a nation to stand among the nations of the world. Material poverty is not socialism, spiritual emptiness is not socialism. Without the prosperity and development of socialist culture, there will be no socialist modernization. Deepen the reform of the cultural system at a new historical starting point, promote the great development and prosperity of socialist culture, realize the goal of building a well-off society in an all-round way, uphold and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We should accurately grasp the new requirements of China's economic and social development, accurately grasp the new trend of cultural development in the current era, accurately grasp the new expectations of people of all ethnic groups' spiritual and cultural life, enhance their sense of responsibility and urgency, emancipate their minds, change their concepts, seize the opportunity, take advantage of the situation, and strive to create a new situation in socialist cultural construction in the process of building a well-off society in an all-round way and on the road of scientific development.

Two, adhere to the road of cultural development in Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and strive to build a socialist cultural power.

To build a strong socialist cultural country, we should strive to promote the advanced socialist culture to be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, promote the all-round development of socialist spiritual civilization and material civilization, and constantly create a new situation in which the cultural creativity of the whole nation is endless, the social and cultural life is more colorful, and the people's basic cultural rights and interests are better guaranteed. Comprehensively improve the people's ideological and moral quality and scientific and cultural quality, build the spiritual home of the Chinese nation, and make greater contributions to the progress of human civilization.

The whole party and the whole country should work together to achieve these goals, constantly improve the scientific level of cultural construction, and lay a solid foundation for building China into a socialist cultural power.
