Since the 18th CPC National Congress, the Party Central Committee, with General Secretary Xi Jinping at its core, has made a significant judgment that economic development has entered a new normal. It has formed a policy framework that is guided by new development philosophy and that focuses on supply-side structural reform, consistently implementing the principle of pursuing progress while ensuring stability, leading China's economy toward sustained and healthy development. Xi Jinping's series of profound statements on socialist economic development, characterized by visionary perspectives, rich connotations, and deep insights, comprehensively address major questions about how to perceive and carry out China's economic development. These statements hold immense guiding significance for adhering to the people-centered development concept, firmly establishing and implementing the new development philosophy, adapting to, grasping, and leading the new normal of economic development, advancing supply-side structural reform, promoting stable and healthy economic development and social harmony and stability, achieving the Two Centenary Goals, and realizing the Chinese Dream of National Rejuvenation.

To assist officials and the public in learning, understanding, and mastering Xi Jinping's important statements on socialist economic development, we have compiled this current volume.

The content of this volume is drawn from over 120 significant documents, including speeches, reports, and instructions by Xi Jinping from November 15, 2012, to March 12, 2017. It is organized into ten topics, encompassing a total of 494 key statements, several of which are being published here for the first time.
