The CCP Politburo holds “collective study sessions” on a semi-regular basis, in which an outside academic or government expert leads a discussion on a selected topic. Such sessions are important signals as to what issues the senior leadership finds important. The ninth collective study session of the 20th Central Committee Politburo was held on October 27, 2023 and was presided over by Xi Jinping. At this session, Xi delivered a speech to Party cadres where he emphasized the need to forge a strong sense of community and inter-ethnic unity among the Chinese population to build a “modernized socialist superpower.”
Xi Jinping delivered this speech to the first session of the 13th National People’s Congress (NPC) a few months after receiving a second term as Chinese Communist Party general secretary at the 19th Party Congress.

A report to the National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), more commonly referred to as just the “Party Congress,” is arguably the most authoritative document in the Chinese Party-state ecosystem. It is technically the report of the outgoing Central Committee (here, the 19th Central Committee) at the quinquennial gathering of the Party Congress (here, the 20th Party Congress). Delivered by the General Secretary of the CCP (here, Xi Jinping), the report not only provides an official summary of the Party’s work over the past five years, but also outlines the official Party stance on all major policy issues and sets policy priorities for the incoming Central Committee (here, the 20th Central Committee).

Two political scientists affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences argue that the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) lost its governance legitimacy as a culture of privilege-seeking and corruption formed over time, distracting cadres from understanding and serving the needs of the Soviet people. Based on this assessment, the authors suggest the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) continue to expand mass supervision and combat corruption through improvements to cadre education and discipline.
