Publication: Qiushi (求是), 2026 Issue 14 | Date: July 15, 2026
Issue 14 is built around the CPC's 105th anniversary and Party-building. The lead text is Xi Jinping's July 1 anniversary speech, wrapped in four accompanying pieces — a Qiushi editorial-department gloss, a Central Party School committee essay, and signed articles by Tian Peiyan and Ji Yongyi — all elaborating Xi's "six characteristics" of the Party and the "Five Musts." A science-and-technology commentator piece follows, tied to Xi's July 8 speech to the national science awards and academician conferences. Then an economics cluster: a special-commentator defense of China's low household consumption rate, the "Yiwu Development Experience" as a template for county-economy and Xi Jinping Economic Thought, Zhang Hecheng on grain security, and Yang Zhiyong on "scientific fiscal management." The columns close the issue: a commentary on keeping technology a tool of humans, Shen Zhuanghai in Cultural China on the "family-and-country feeling," Hu Qiang on the revolutionary-history film Four Crossings, Wu Zhicheng and Dong Zuozhuang on a fracturing world order, a National Party Building Research Association field study on rallying gig-economy "new employment groups" around the Party, a Study Q&A on the Party Center's centralized leadership, two short pieces on cadre passivity, and an NBS chart of 2025 culture-industry indicators. The correct view of performance (正确政绩观) and the campaign against short-termism and "defensive" inaction run through the middle and back of the book.
Six articles have been translated in full and added to the Translations database as separate pages; links are appended to the relevant summaries below. The first item, This Issue's Guide, is given as a full translation in place of a summary.

This issue publishes General Secretary Xi Jinping's important article "Speech at the Ceremony Marking the 105th Anniversary of the Founding of the Communist Party of China." The article reviews and sums up the glorious journey traveled and the great achievements attained over 105 years by the Communist Party of China in uniting and leading the people of all ethnic groups across the country; it reveals the outstanding qualities that have enabled the Communist Party of China to forge brilliance again and again; and it sets clear requirements for all Chinese Communists to firm up their confidence and continue the struggle on the new journey. In studying this important article, emphasis should be placed on grasping the five aspects of great achievements of the Party's 105 years of tireless struggle in leading the people: fundamentally changing the future and destiny of the Chinese people, opening up the correct road to realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, demonstrating the powerful vitality of Marxism, profoundly influencing the course of world history, and forging a strong Communist Party of China. Emphasis should also be placed on grasping the six aspects of the Party's outstanding qualities: "resolutely pursuing truth and always keeping the direction of advance correct," "being deeply rooted in the people and always possessing a solid foundation," "bravely shouldering the historical mission and always holding the strategic initiative," "conforming to the trend of development and always standing at the forefront of the times," "daring and being adept at struggle and always maintaining the confidence of certain victory," and "focusing on strengthening ourselves and always brimming with vigor and vitality." Emphasis should further be placed on grasping the clear requirements of the "Five Musts": we must uphold the Party's basic theory, basic line, and basic program; we must rely closely on the people to create great historical undertakings; we must actively respond to the risks and challenges on the road ahead; we must continuously advance the building of a community with a shared future for mankind; and we must persevere in comprehensively and strictly governing the Party. Through study, we should further ignite the confidence and fighting spirit to forge ahead on the new journey and achieve merit in the new era, and strive to create new historical brilliance.
