文化是一個國家、一個民族的靈魂。文化興國運興，文化強民族強。沒有高度的文化自信，沒有文化的繁榮興盛，就沒有中華民族偉大復興。要堅持中國特色社會主義文化發展道路，激發全民族文化創新創造活力，建設社會主義文化強國。
Culture is a country and nation's soul. Our country will thrive only if our culture thrives, and our nation will be strong only if our culture is strong. Without full confidence in our culture, without a rich and prosperous culture, the Chinese nation will not be able to rejuvenate itself. We must develop a socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, inspire the cultural creativity of our whole nation, and develop a great socialist culture in China.
中國特色社會主義文化，源自于中華民族五千多年文明歷史所孕育的中華優秀傳統文化，熔鑄于黨領導人民在革命、建設、改革中創造的革命文化和社會主義先進文化，植根于中國特色社會主義偉大實踐。發展中國特色社會主義文化，就是以馬克思主義為指導，堅守中華文化立場，立足當代中國現實，結合當今時代條件，發展面向現代化、面向世界、面向未來的，民族的科學的大眾的社會主義文化，推動社會主義精神文明和物質文明協調發展。要堅持為人民服務、為社會主義服務，堅持百花齊放、百家爭鳴，堅持創造性轉化、創新性發展，不斷鑄就中華文化新輝煌。
Socialist culture with Chinese characteristics is derived from China's fine traditional culture, which was born of the Chinese civilization and nurtured over more than 5,000 years; it has grown out of the revolutionary and advanced socialist culture that developed over the course of the Chinese people’s revolution, construction, and reform under the Party's leadership; and it is rooted in the great practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics. To develop socialist culture with Chinese characteristics means to develop a socialist culture for our nation—a culture that is sound and people-oriented, that embraces modernization, the world, and the future, and that both promotes socialist material wellbeing and raises socialist cultural-ethical standards. In developing this culture, we must follow the guidance of Marxism, base our efforts on Chinese culture, and take into account the realities of contemporary China and the conditions of the present era. We should ensure that this culture serves the people and serves socialism. We should follow the principle of letting a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, and encourage creative transformation and development, so as to add new luster to Chinese culture.
（一）牢牢掌握意識形態工作領導權。意識形態決定文化前進方向和發展道路。必須推進馬克思主義中國化時代化大眾化，建設具有強大凝聚力和引領力的社會主義意識形態，使全體人民在理想信念、價值理念、道德觀念上緊緊團結在一起。要加強理論武裝，推動新時代中國特色社會主義思想深入人心。深化馬克思主義理論研究和建設，加快構建中國特色哲學社會科學，加強中國特色新型智庫建設。高度重視傳播手段建設和創新，提高新聞輿論傳播力、引導力、影響力、公信力。加強互聯網內容建設，建立網絡綜合治理體系，營造清朗的網絡空間。落實意識形態工作責任制，加強陣地建設和管理，注意區分政治原則問題、思想認識問題、學術觀點問題，旗幟鮮明反對和抵制各種錯誤觀點。
1. Holding firmly the leading position in ideological work
Ideology determines the direction a culture should take and the path it should follow as it develops. We must continue to adapt Marxism to China's conditions, keep it up-to-date, and enhance its popular appeal. We will develop socialist ideology that has the ability to unite and the power to inspire the people to embrace shared ideals, convictions, values, and moral standards. We will better arm ourselves with theory and increase the public appeal of the Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. We will work harder to study and develop Marxist theory, work faster to develop philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics, and develop new types of think tanks with distinctive Chinese features. We will give priority to improving means of communication and to creating new ones, and will strengthen the penetration, guidance, influence, and credibility of the media. We will provide more and better online content and put in place a system for integrated internet management to ensure a clean cyberspace. We will implement the system of responsibility for ideological work, and further consolidate our positions and improve management in this field. We will distinguish between matters of political principle, issues of understanding and thinking, and academic viewpoints, but we must oppose and resist various erroneous views with a clear stand.
（二）培育和踐行社會主義核心價值觀。社會主義核心價值觀是當代中國精神的集中體現，凝結著全體人民共同的價值追求。要以培養擔當民族復興大任的時代新人為著眼點，強化教育引導、實踐養成、制度保障，發揮社會主義核心價值觀對國民教育、精神文明創建、精神文化產品創作生產傳播的引領作用，把社會主義核心價值觀融入社會發展各方面，轉化為人們的情感認同和行為習慣。堅持全民行動、干部帶頭，從家庭做起，從娃娃抓起。深入挖掘中華優秀傳統文化蘊含的思想觀念、人文精神、道德規范，結合時代要求繼承創新，讓中華文化展現出永久魅力和時代風采。
2. Cultivating and observing core socialist values
Core socialist values represent the contemporary Chinese spirit and are a crystallization of the values shared by all Chinese people. We will focus on fostering a new generation capable of shouldering the mission of national rejuvenation; we will offer them better guidance, expose them to practice, and provide institutional guarantees. We will draw on core socialist values to guide education, efforts to raise cultural-ethical standards, and the creation, production, and distribution of cultural and intellectual products, and see that all areas of social development are imbued with these values and that they become part of people's thinking and behavior. To this end, we will encourage extensive public involvement, making our officials take the lead and starting with families and children. We will draw on China's fine traditional culture, keep alive and develop its vision, concepts, values, and moral norms, and do so in a way that responds to the call of our era. With this we will see that Chinese culture maintains its appeal and evolves with the times.
（三）加強思想道德建設。人民有信仰，國家有力量，民族有希望。要提高人民思想覺悟、道德水準、文明素養，提高全社會文明程度。廣泛開展理想信念教育，深化中國特色社會主義和中國夢宣傳教育，弘揚民族精神和時代精神，加強愛國主義、集體主義、社會主義教育，引導人們樹立正確的歷史觀、民族觀、國家觀、文化觀。深入實施公民道德建設工程，推進社會公德、職業道德、家庭美德、個人品德建設，激勵人們向上向善、孝老愛親，忠于祖國、忠于人民。加強和改進思想政治工作，深化群眾性精神文明創建活動。弘揚科學精神，普及科學知識，開展移風易俗、弘揚時代新風行動，抵制腐朽落后文化侵蝕。推進誠信建設和志愿服務制度化，強化社會責任意識、規則意識、奉獻意識。
3. Raising intellectual and moral standards
When a people have ideals, their country will have strength, and their nation will have a bright future. We will help our people raise their political awareness and moral standards, foster appreciation of fine culture, and enhance social etiquette and civility. We will undertake extensive public awareness activities to help the people develop firm ideals and convictions, build their awareness of socialism with Chinese characteristics and the Chinese Dream, foster a Chinese ethos and a readiness to respond to the call of our times, strengthen the guiding role of patriotism, collectivism, and socialism, and see that the people develop an accurate understanding of history, ethnicity, country, and culture. We will launch a civic morality campaign to raise public ethical standards, and enhance work ethics, family virtues, and personal integrity. We will encourage our people to strive for excellence and to develop stronger virtues, respect the elderly, love families, and be loyal to the country and the people. We will improve and strengthen our ideological and political work, and launch initiatives to raise the public's cultural-ethical standards. We will promote the spirit of science and make scientific knowledge widely attainable; we will work to see the back of outdated social mores and to promote good and up-to-date practices and trends; and we will resist the corrosive influence of backward and decadent culture. We will promote credibility building, institutionalize volunteer services, and heighten people's sense of social responsibility, awareness of rules, and sense of dedication.
（四）繁榮發展社會主義文藝。社會主義文藝是人民的文藝，必須堅持以人民為中心的創作導向，在深入生活、扎根人民中進行無愧于時代的文藝創造。要繁榮文藝創作，堅持思想精深、藝術精湛、制作精良相統一，加強現實題材創作，不斷推出謳歌黨、謳歌祖國、謳歌人民、謳歌英雄的精品力作。發揚學術民主、藝術民主，提升文藝原創力，推動文藝創新。倡導講品位、講格調、講責任，抵制低俗、庸俗、媚俗。加強文藝隊伍建設，造就一大批德藝雙馨名家大師，培育一大批高水平創作人才。
4. Seeing socialist literature and art thrive
Socialist literature and art are for the people: Writers and artists should take a people-centered approach and draw inspiration from everyday life and the experiences of the people to produce works that do justice to our times. We encourage them to create fine works that are thought provoking and of a high artistic standard, that reflect real life, and that extol our Party, our country, our people, and our heroes. We will foster democracy in academic research and artistic pursuit, and encourage originality and experimentation with new approaches in the creation of literature and art. We encourage the cultivation of fine tastes, style, and a sense of responsibility, and reject vulgarity and kitsch in literary and artistic creation. We will strengthen the professional standards of artists and writers to see the emergence of a large number of eminent figures who have moral integrity and outstanding artistic appeal, and creators of inspiring works.
（五）推動文化事業和文化產業發展。滿足人民過上美好生活的新期待，必須提供豐富的精神食糧。要深化文化體制改革，完善文化管理體制，加快構建把社會效益放在首位、社會效益和經濟效益相統一的體制機制。完善公共文化服務體系，深入實施文化惠民工程，豐富群眾性文化活動。加強文物保護利用和文化遺產保護傳承。健全現代文化產業體系和市場體系，創新生產經營機制，完善文化經濟政策，培育新型文化業態。廣泛開展全民健身活動，加快推進體育強國建設，籌辦好北京冬奧會、冬殘奧會。加強中外人文交流，以我為主、兼收并蓄。推進國際傳播能力建設，講好中國故事，展現真實、立體、全面的中國，提高國家文化軟實力。
5. Promoting the development of cultural programs and industries
To meet the people's new aspirations for a better life, we must provide them with rich intellectual nourishment. We need to deepen structural reform of the cultural sector, improve the cultural management system, and accelerate the establishment of systems and mechanisms that put social benefits first while pursuing economic returns. We will improve the public cultural service system, carry out public-interest cultural programs, and launch more popular cultural activities. We will strengthen protection and utilization of cultural relics, and better preserve and carry forward our cultural heritage. We will improve modern systems for cultural industries and markets, explore new mechanisms for cultural production and operation, improve economic policy on the development of the cultural sector, and develop new forms of business in this sector. We will carry out extensive Fitness-for-All programs, speed up efforts to build China into a country strong on sports, and make smooth preparations for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games and Paralympic Games. We will strengthen people-to-people and cultural exchanges with other countries, giving prominence to Chinese culture while also drawing on other cultures. We will improve our capacity for engaging in international communication so as to tell China’s stories well, present a true, multi-dimensional, and panoramic view of China, and enhance our country's cultural soft power.
同志們！中國共產黨從成立之日起，既是中國先進文化的積極引領者和踐行者，又是中華優秀傳統文化的忠實傳承者和弘揚者。當代中國共產黨人和中國人民應該而且一定能夠擔負起新的文化使命，在實踐創造中進行文化創造，在歷史進步中實現文化進步！
Comrades,
Since its founding, the Communist Party of China has actively guided and promoted China's advanced culture while keeping China's fine traditional culture alive and strong. Today, we Chinese Communists and the Chinese people should and can shoulder our new cultural mission, make cultural creations through practice, and promote cultural advancement along with the progress of history.
