Xi Jinping meant what he said in his Work Report to the 20th National CPC Congress when he emphasized the role of education, especially of the nation's youth and lower level cadres. The Party and state apparatus are now trying to make good on that policy by producing and circulating a number of more or less easy to read guides that are meant to help guide appropriate internalizaiton fo the ley points in the Work Report suitable for mass consumption.
One example follows below. 党的二十大报告学习手账+思维导图,收藏学习!i[The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China reports learning handbook + navigation chart, collected favorite lessons!]s quite cleverly presented in the form of a virtual notebook. Here the symbols and objects of learning--from teacher to student, from core of leadership to cadres, from the party to the masses, is emphasized, and naturalized within the organizational order-universe of the New Era Chinese Marxist Leninist state. The process of conveying collective meaning in this way, of shaping social thought, is worthy of substantial study both for its character in a Leninist institutional environment and for its effectiveness. It serves as a way of comparing similar (though usually muct more indirect processes of socialization to orthodox mandatory signs and utterances of loyalty in liberal democratic systems of which there are many examples now.
Images of the "learning notebook" follows along with a quite detailed infographic mapping the main points of the 20th National CPC Congress.
