The leaders of the Chinese Communist Party have worked hard to find a socialist path that fits China's unique characteristics. Mao Zedong focused on learning from past socialist experiences and created the idea of a socialist society with contradictions. Deng Xiaoping made significant contributions by clarifying the nature of socialism, setting the Party's basic goals, and introducing new economic and political systems. Jiang Zemin further developed theories on early-stage socialism, market economies, political reforms, development strategies, and Party organization. Understanding their efforts is crucial for sticking to China's socialist path.
