On 12 October 2022, Chinese authorities released a summary communiqué of the 7th Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China [中国共产党第十九届中央委员会第七次全体会议公报]. The meeting provides a glimpse at some of the ore important formal elements of the 20th National Congress of the CPC.  In addition to general secretary Xi's work report to the plenum (a partial dress rehearsal for what is to come), the most interesting are the threer reports identified for presentation at the 20th National Congress:

The plenary session also discussed and adopted a report to be made by the 19th CPC Central Committee to the 20th CPC National Congress, a work report of the 19th CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) to the congress, and an amendment to the CPC Constitution.The three documents will be submitted to the upcoming congress for examination and deliberation. (Plenum makes full preparation for 20th CPC National Congress)

 The amendment to the CPC constitution was expected.  It was reported in early September that such an amendment was in preparation for presentation to the 7th Plenum. "

Amending the constitution at the 20th CPC National Congress on the basis of the new situation and tasks would promote the development of socialism with Chinese characteristics and Party building, said a statement issued after the meeting. It said the amendment must include the key theories and strategic thought presented by a report to be delivered at the 20th CPC National Congress. The amended constitution must fully represent the latest sinicization of Marxism, new governance concepts, thought and strategies of the CPC Central Committee since the 19th CPC National Congress, and new experience in adhering to and strengthening Party leadership and in strict Party governance, according to the statement. (20th CPC National Congress to amend Party Constitution)

The text of the amendments will likely be circulated next week but as I suggested earlier, the amendments will focus on  updated revisions og the CPC's General Program and substantive changes to cadre disciplinary rules (Brief Reflections on the Potential Importance of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (中国共产党第二十次全国代表大会) in Six Key Issue Areas).

3rd Plenum of the 11th Central Committee (1978)

The Plenum communiqué does strongly signal the areas of substantial attention that will be the focus of the more formal events at th 20th Congress as well as the themes that will be emphasized in the general secretary's work report--the must read product of the event. At the center will be (1) a grand restatement of New Era Thought; and (2) its application to the overall policy framework for the next 5 years. This application comes in layers--and it is important to understand how, like BRI, New Era Thought provides the core around the spokes of which hold together increasingly granular manifestations in policies and programs. The inner ring is made up of the further development of whole process democracy, of the continued institutionalization of security and prosperity regimes and of the increasingly tight management of cadres. The next ring focuses on the normalization f the state within its own and transnational orders--autonomous regions, belt and road states, and the narratives of socialist internationalism. The most granular ring then focuses on the manifestation of New Era infused specific policies around core areas--health, socialist modernization, and its redirection to meet the New Era's principal contradiction of unequal distribution and the general increase in public welfare. There will be much understated in this outer ring--an important element of which revolves around the further elaboration of the dual circulation strategy, the bifurcation of production chains, and the establishment of a system of barriers, more or less permeable but controlled by the core, between inside (China and SARs including Taiwan), outside (competitor camps under the leadership of the US), and neutral economic zones (BRI land). It involves the internationalization of development based principles of stability and prosperity in regimes of security and greater state management of all aspects of organized life around central values--a socialist system of mandatory and ideologically driven 'wokeness' of a sort familiar to and perhaps serving as a tempting model (modified to suit national contexts) for elements of liberal democratic elites. There is more to it, of course. That is where most analysis starts, but as the core of leadership keeps suggesting, that is where analysis should end.
