Abstract:XI Jin-ping’s Thought on Party Building constitutes a rigorous theoretical system integrating fundamental substance with practical application and achieving the unity of principle and practice. In terms of its inherent logical framework, the Fourteen Insistences highly distill the core connotations of this thought and present an overall structural configuration of “2 + 12”. Embedded within this theoretical framework is its concept of practice, a theoretical integration centered on “building a Marxist party exercising long-term governance” that encapsulates contemporary Chinese Communists’ practical values and methodological approaches. As an indispensable core component of the foundational theoretical achievements of XI Jin-ping’s Thought on Party Building, this concept of practice serves as a pivotal dimension reflecting the original theoretical contributions of the thought. An in-depth theoretical review reveals that this concept of practice comprises three internally consistent and logically complementary components: the orientation of practice, the purpose of practice, and the strategy of practice. When discussing the orientation of practice, XI Jin-ping’s Thought on Party Building contains a foundational orientation of “consolidating the Party’s fundamental roots”, a realistic orientation of “eliminating intra-party maladies”, and a developmental orientation of “breaking new ground in Party building practice”. In terms of the purpose of practice, the thought embodies unified value norms and goal orientations: tempering the Party’s inherent political nature, strengthening its political role, and enhancing the Party’s capacity for long-term governance. Regarding the strategy of practice, adhering to problem-oriented thinking and a systemic perspective, the thought constructs a complete action system and institutional normative framework for full and strict Party self-governance, alongside a synergistic linkage mechanism featuring coordinated multi-pronged efforts. Rooted in this scientific concept of practice, the Party has achieved remarkable outcomes in Party self-governance throughout the New Era, identified the second answer to breaking out of the historical cycle of rise and fall, and significantly advanced the Sinicization and modernization of Marxist theories on Party building.
