A comprehensive study and understanding of the scientific system of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era is an important part of the theme education. Studying "Outline" is helpful to deeply understand and grasp the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era from the scientific system, so as to make a comprehensive statement.

　　Form a sound scientific system by constantly promoting practical innovation and theoretical innovation.

　　The development of scientific theory is constantly advancing in the benign interaction between practical innovation and theoretical innovation, which is embodied in the internal unity of theoretical logic, historical logic and practical logic. Our party’s innovation theory comes from practice and is rooted in history. In the process of guiding the development of practice and in the process of creating history, it presents theoretical logic and a scientific system. To fully grasp the scientific system of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, it is essential to deeply understand the practical logic and historical logic of great changes in the new era. In the new era, China is experiencing the most extensive and profound social changes in China’s history and carrying out the most grand and unique practical innovation in human history. Every major step of social change in the new era is condensed into the crystallization of thought in the party’s innovation theory in the new era; Every major achievement of practical innovation in the new era occupies an important position in the scientific system of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era. The Outline is not only a mirror of historical achievements and changes in the new era in the past 10 years, but also contains a systematic picture of the party’s innovation theory in the new era.

　　Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era has gradually formed a scientific system with a series of original new ideas, ideas and strategies for governing the country. This scientific system not only answers the basic questions of adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, such as the general goal, general task, overall layout, strategic layout and development direction, development mode, development motivation, strategic steps, external conditions, political guarantee, but also answers the party’s leadership and party building, economy, politics, rule of law, science and technology, culture, education, people’s livelihood, nationality, religion, society and people’s livelihood according to the new practice. In the development process of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, the ideological achievements are getting richer and richer, showing an organic whole of a scientific system composed of deep roots, strong trunks, flourishing branches and dense leaves. The important achievements of the party’s theoretical innovation in the new era have been fully demonstrated in the Outline.

　　There is no end to practical innovation and theoretical innovation, and the scientific system is not static and unchangeable, but it is enriched and improved in the process of constantly opening up a new realm of China-oriented Marxism. The "Outline" was revised on the basis of the 2019 edition, fully reflecting the latest achievements of this important thought, and reflecting the important achievements of the party’s theoretical innovation in recent years in chapter design. For example, it is a major theoretical innovation of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the latest major achievement of scientific socialism to put forward and elaborate the Chinese modernization theory in general. Based on the profound exposition of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary on the major theoretical and practical issues of Chinese modernization, the Outline explains the China characteristics, essential requirements and major principles of Chinese modernization, and a series of major relations that need to be correctly handled to promote Chinese modernization, showing the openness and expansibility of the scientific system.

　　Unify the overall study of the main contents with the overall grasp of the scientific system.

　　General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized during the fourth collective study in the 20th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee: "Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Party clearly pointed out that ‘ Ten clear ’ 、‘ Fourteen Persistences ’ 、‘ Thirteen achievements ’ Summarized the main content of this idea. It is necessary to study and master these main contents comprehensively and systematically, and to grasp the scientific system of this idea as a whole, so as to achieve mastery. " This requires us to unify the main content with the scientific system, grasp the scientific system on the basis of grasping the main content, and grasp the main content at the level of grasping the scientific system.

　　"Ten Definitions", "Fourteen Persistences" and "Thirteen Achievements" include the new ideas, new ideas and new strategies put forward by the party’s innovation theory in the new era in various fields, as well as the specific requirements put forward for all aspects of work. These main contents, which are internally connected and closely related, are holistic and systematic in themselves. These main contents should be understood and grasped in the whole scientific system, so as to avoid fragmentation and one-sidedness, and we should not only see trees but not forests. When presenting the main contents of the Party’s innovation theory in the new era, the Outline, according to the inherent logic of these main contents, integrates them into all chapters that embody the scientific system, so as to form a systematic thought with clear structure and distinct levels. These main contents are integrated in the book. For example, the first chapter "the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics — — On the highest political leadership in contemporary China, it not only embodies the first definition of "ten definiteness", but also the first persistence of "fourteen persistences", and it also summarizes the first achievement of "thirteen achievements".

　　In the new era, the party’s innovation theory is developed around answering major questions and constitutes a scientific system. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, with the supreme leader as the main representative, have responded to the requirements of the times, combined with the new reality, and scientifically answered major issues of the times, such as what kind of Socialism with Chinese characteristics to adhere to and develop in the new era, how to adhere to and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics, how to build a socialist modern power, how to build a socialist modern power, what kind of long-term ruling Marxist political party, and how to build a long-term ruling Marxist political party. The scientific system of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era was formed and developed by deeply answering a series of major issues concerning the development of the cause of the party and the country from the combination of theory and practice. Each chapter of the "Outline" not only gives a concentrated answer to major issues of the times, but also gives an in-depth interpretation of major issues of the times from different fields and aspects. For example, from the ninth chapter to the thirteenth chapter, it is from the fields of economic, political, cultural, social and ecological civilization construction that major issues of the times are specifically answered, which makes all parts of this scientific system run through systematic answers to major issues of the times.

　　The name and orientation of "Learning Outline" shows that it is an important achievement in understanding the scientific system, and tries to describe the outline and essentials of the system. The Outline is divided into three parts: introduction, main content of 19 chapters and conclusion. The introduction generally expounds that Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era is the guiding ideology that the Party and the country must adhere to for a long time. The conclusion puts forward important requirements for profoundly understanding the decisive significance of "two establishments" and continuously deepening the study and implementation of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era. The contents of the 19 chapters reflect the basic framework of this important thought. The first chapter to the fourth chapter expounds the leadership, fundamental direction, objectives, tasks and fundamental position of upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and defines the core content of the scientific system; The fifth to eighth chapters expound the strategic arrangement, fundamental motive force, legal guarantee and political guarantee of adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and clarify the pillar position of the "four comprehensive" strategic layout in the scientific system; Chapters 9 to 13 explain the overall layout of the "five in one" of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause, and clarify the main areas of adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era; Chapters 14 to 18 elaborated on national security, national defense and army building, "one country, two systems" and the reunification of the motherland, great power diplomacy, and the new great struggle.Clarify the important guarantee for adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era; Chapter 19 expounds the world outlook, methodology, standpoint and method, and defines the philosophical basis for adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

　　Scientific world outlook and methodology are the "master keys" to understand the scientific system.

　　The modernization of Marxism in China inherently includes the modernization of Marxist philosophy in China, forming a Marxist world outlook and methodology with distinctive characteristics of China and the times. Mao Zedong Thought’s living soul is the standpoint, viewpoint and method that runs through it. There are three basic aspects, namely, seeking truth from facts, the mass line and independence. The essence of Deng Xiaoping Theory is to persist in emancipating the mind and seeking truth from facts. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out during the first collective study in the 20th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee: "The scientific world outlook and methodology are the basis for us to study and solve problems ‘ Master key ’ 。” The Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era is extensive and profound. The "master key" to understand and grasp this important ideological and scientific system is the "six musts" rooted in Marxist world outlook, methodology, standpoint and methods, adhering to the party’s ideological line and embodying the innovative development of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people in the new era. Only by accurately grasping the position, viewpoint and method of the supreme leader Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, including the "six musts", can we better understand the essence of this important thought.

　　The Outline has a special chapter to explain the world outlook and methodology of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, and make a comprehensive and in-depth interpretation of the "six musts". Adhering to the people’s supremacy and emphasizing the people’s nature are the essential attributes of Marxism. Everything is for the people and everything depends on the people. We always put the people in the highest position in our hearts and persist in taking the people as the center. Insist on self-reliance, emphasize firm belief in Marxism, Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the realization of the Chinese nation’s great rejuvenation of the Chinese dream, independently explore the way forward and unswervingly follow its own path. Adhere to integrity and innovation, emphasizing adherence to the truth, the right path, the courage to explore and open up new horizons, innovation in integrity and development in innovation. Adhere to the problem orientation, emphasize being good at finding and facing problems, take solving problems as the work orientation, and constantly put forward new ideas, new ideas and new methods to solve problems. Adhere to the concept of system, emphasize the relationship between overall and local, current and long-term, macro and micro, major and minor contradictions, special and general, and make forward-looking thinking, overall planning and overall promotion. Insist on keeping the world in mind, and emphasize the correct understanding and handling of the relationship with the outside world from the general trend of human development, the general pattern of world changes and the great history of China’s development, so as to contribute to solving the common problems faced by mankind.

　　"Six musts" runs through all the contents of the scientific system and is the "master key" to understand and grasp the scientific system. The Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the New Era is contemporary China Marxism and 21st century Marxism, and it is the essence of Chinese culture and China spirit, which has achieved a new leap in the modernization of Marxism in China. An important requirement to deeply understand the historical position and theoretical contribution of this important thought is to fully understand the great contribution of "six musts" to enriching and developing the Communist Party of China (CPC) people’s world outlook, methodology and Marxist philosophy, and its leading and basic role in realizing a new leap in the modernization of Marxism in China.
