Features: In the face of changes in the social class structure, to strengthen the Party's class base and expand its mass base, the Party must scientifically understand and grasp these changes, thereby formulating correct strategies for Party building and governance, ensuring the Party's effective leadership over the entire modernization cause. Marxism provides the basic guiding ideology and theoretical foundation for the Communist Party of China to scientifically understand and grasp changes in the social class structure. In addressing the new changes in the current social class structure, while adhering to the class analysis standard of ownership of the means of production, it is also necessary to incorporate the standard of occupational classification. This analytical approach is of great significance for correctly analyzing and coordinating the relationships among all social classes in our country, preventing the expansion of class struggle, uniting the entire nation, and working together with one heart and one mind to build socialism with Chinese characteristics. However, we must adhere to the Marxist class analysis method, and it remains to this day the scientific explanation method for discovering the emergence, development, and decline of social classes.
