改革开放三十年英语作文

改革开放三十年英语作文

After more than two decades of headlong rush to transform China

from

an

autarkic

centrally

planned

economy

into

a

limited

open-market

economy, Hu is now leading a nation in the midst of fateful debates

about

the

most

effective

and

balanced

route

toward

a

modern

harmonious

socialist society. Autarky has never been voluntary Chinese policy

under socialism

but

rather

an externally

imposed

sanction

of

the

Cold

War.

China's shift toward market economy in the past two and a half

decades

was

not

taken

in

isolation

from

world

trends.

When

Deng

A

are

raising calls for rethinking the wisdom of falling for the empty

promises of neo-liberal globalization.

shoulder the continuing task of national reconstruction toward

economic prosperity and cultural renaissance on the need for further

opening/reform. The dispute is on the correct definition and path of

opening/reform: open to neo-colonialism and reform toward social

inequality and moral decay, or open to assuming a legitimate place as

a

strong

and

peaceful

nation

in

a

world

order

of

free

sovereign

nations

of equality and reform toward creative and scientific socialist

construction based on equality, justice and freedom for all.

Over

the

past

30

years,

China

has

been

firmly

pressing

ahead

with

the

implementation

of

the

reform

program

and

the

initiative

of

opening

up to the outside world. With the establishment of a preliminary

socialist market economy, and the nation’s economy attaining an

outward- oriented perspective, the productive forces and the

comprehensive national competence have been on the rising curve

constantly. And various social undertakings have been developing in

full swing. The living standard of the Chinese people as a whole has

undergone a historical leap from a subsistence level to the level of
