Abstract:

The Communist Party of China is a political party with a profound historical consciousness. The Party's historical consciousness refers to its rational thinking and practical awareness through which it reflects and reveals the objective laws of history by exercising its subjective initiative. Chinese modernization represents the Party's autonomous choice and practical manifestation of its historical consciousness. The consistent practical exploration of Chinese modernization vividly demonstrates the Party's historical consciousness, which is prominently reflected in four dimensions: consciously highlighting the historical subject in the value dimension; consciously examining the driving forces of history in the dimension of phenomena and essence; consciously advancing the historical process in the temporal dimension; and consciously transcending historical comparisons in the spatial dimension. The successful advancement of Chinese modernization must rely on the Party's profound historical consciousness. To continue empowering Chinese modernization with the Party's historical consciousness on the new journey, we must use theoretical consciousness to reveal historical laws, employ practical consciousness to forge historical transformations, and exercise mission consciousness to secure historical initiative.

Key words: Chinese modernization, the Communist Party of China, historical consciousness, practical consciousness, mission consciousness
