Three Closenesses

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Three Closenesses (Chinese: 三贴近) is a political concept first proposed under Chinese Communist Party (CCP) general secretary Hu Jintao in January 2003.

History

[edit]

In January 2003, CCP Politburo member Li Changchun announced the Three Closenesses and said that emphasis of propaganda work should be uniting the "spirit" of the CCP with public opinion.[1] In early 2003, while leading members of the Politburo to visit Xibaipo, Hu Jintao put forward the concept.[2] Li Changchun said in September 2003 that the concepts reflect the basic demands of maintaining correct guidance of public opinion.[3]

Concepts

[edit]

The Three Closenesses are:[1]

  • Closeness to reality (贴近实际)
  • Closeness to the masses (贴近群众)
  • Closeness to real life (贴近生活)
