Editor's Note

The "socialist harmonious society" that China is building is defined as a stable and orderly society embracing democracy, the rule of law, equality, justice, sincerity, amity and vitality, where humans and nature are in harmony. China pledges to build a harmonious society in two decades as the concept aligns with the interests of its 1.3 billion people. Social harmony is again to be the theme of the upcoming plenary session of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee's meeting. This is the third time the issue has been brought up since September 2004.
