The English edition of the book 100 Years of the Communist Party of China was recently published by the Central Compilation and Translation Press for distribution in and outside China. On February 17, 2023, over 120 people attended the book’s launching ceremony at the NPC Conference Center in Beijing, which was hosted by the Institute of Party History and Literature of the CPC Central Committee, the agency that translated the book from its Chinese edition.

The Chinese version was published in June last year, composed of four chapters each detailing a specific period in CPC history: “The New-Democratic Revolution”, “Socialist Revolution and Development”, “Reform, Opening Up, and Socialist Modernization”, and “A New Era of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics”.

The book is, in all openly published literature so far, the most comprehensive and systematic compilation of the CPC’s history that spans the longest period of time. According to the publisher, the English edition of the book marks a milestone in CPC literature translation.

Qu Qingshan, President of the Institute of Party History and Literature of the CPC Central Committee, pointed out that the book provides an authoritative, authentic, and invaluable first-hand reference for readers at home and abroad who wish to better understand the CPC’s development, innovative theories and bold endeavors, as well as the spirit of Chinese communists and the Chinese people.

Highlighting the great endeavors of the Chinese people led by the CPC over the past century, the book decodes the Party’s successes in the past, and reveals its path to success in the future. The book is, as President Qu put it, “a giant scroll painting with detailed brushwork”.

“The CPC’s history is composed of countless stories that sprout from the fertile land of China”, Qu said. “The book’s English edition will tell the story of China and the CPC to the world, help readers overseas to understand China better, promote exchanges between China and the rest of the world, and contribute to the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.”
