The Main Basis,Core Essence,and Reasonable Boundaries of a Prosperous Society in the New Era
The unfolding of contemporary Chinese society contains inherent clues for realizing different social vi-sions.The establishment of a moderately prosperous society in all respects has laid the foundation for achieving a"pros-perous society"under socialist conditions.Therefore,it is necessary to provide corresponding definitions and theoretical explanations for the main basis,core essence,and reasonable boundaries of a prosperous society in the new era.The main basis of a prosperous society lies in its embodiment of the consistent theme of struggle pursued by the Communist Party of China,representing the phased historical tasks of socialist modernization in the new era,and resonating with the emotional and value consensus of the Chinese people.The core essence of a prosperous society is a society that lays the foundation for meeting the people's needs for a better life,a society in which all people make substantive progress to-wards common prosperity,and a society that pursues the free and comprehensive development of individuals.The rea-sonable boundaries of a prosperous society are that it is not a society where the primary social contradictions disappear,nor is it an egalitarian society.It fundamentally differs from the societal patterns of communism and is aligned with the level of productive forces in a society of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
