"三个代表"重要思想

中共十三届四中全会（1989年6月23日至24日在北京举行）以来，以江泽民同志为主要代表的中国共产党人，在建设中国特色社会主义的实践中，加深了对什么是社会主义、怎样建设社会主义和建设什么样的党、怎样建设党的认识，积累了治党治国新的宝贵经验，形成了"三个代表"重要思想。即：中国共产党必须始终代表中国先进生产力的发展要求，代表中国先进文化的前进方向，代表中国最广大人民的根本利益。

Important thought of Three Represents

After the Fourth Plenary Session of the 13th Central Committee of the CPC (held in Beijing, June 23-24, 1989), in the course of building socialism with Chinese characteristics, Chinese Communists, with Jiang Zemin as their chief representative, acquired a deeper understanding of what socialism is and how to build it, as well as what kind of Party to build and how to build it. They also accumulated new, valuable experience in running the Party and state, which helped form the important thought of Three Represents. The essence of Three Represents is that the CPC must always represent the development trend of China's advanced productive forces, the orientation of China's advanced culture and the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the Chinese people.
