Four Basic Principles (1979)
Deng Xiaoping introduced the "Four Basic Principles", or "Four Cardinal Principles" (si xiang jiben yuanze, 四项基本原则), in March 1979.
They are:
- We must keep to the socialist road
- We must uphold the dictatorship of the proletariat
- We must uphold the leadership of the Communist Party
- We must uphold Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong Thought
Those who decry Deng have never investigated his commitment to the Chinese people and the principles of Marxism-Leninism-MZT.
