The Code of Conduct for Intraparty Political Life Under New Circumstances is a document issued at the sixth plenary session of the 18th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party held in October 2016.[1] The core purpose of the Code is to strengthen and regulate the political life within the Chinese Communist Party and promote "comprehensive and strict governance of the Party".[2]
The communique following the sixth plenary session of the 18th CCP Central Committee pointed out that "the CCP Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as its core" is firmly advancing "comprehensive and strict governance of the Party".[3][4] The "comprehensive and strict governance of the Party" is one of the main contents of the Four Comprehensives proposed by Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CCP Central Committee, in 2014.[5][6] After becoming General Secretary of the CCP Central Committee in 2012, Xi Jinping has repeatedly mentioned "strict governance of the Party" and "the Party must manage the Party" in public. This new Code is inherited from the Code of Conduct for Intraparty Political Life formulated in 1980.[1]
