On the basic national conditions and historical tasks of contemporary China society.

1, national conditions: due to foreign aggression, it became a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. Since the Opium War, China has been reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The Second Opium War, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China deepened the semi-colonial and semi-feudal degree of China step by step until it was completely reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society.

The semi-colonial and semi-feudal society accompanied the whole modern history of China. Neither the Westernization Movement, the Revolution of 1911 nor War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression changed the nature of China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. It was not until the founding of New China and the victory of the new democratic revolution that the semi-colonial and semi-feudal society finally ended.

2. Historical tasks: anti-imperialism and feudalism or national independence and national prosperity. Because of the semi-colonial and semi-feudal nature of China, the people of China not only want to overthrow the old rule and realize the development and prosperity of the country, but also face the task of expelling foreign aggression and realizing national independence.

In order to achieve this task, all walks of life in China have waged arduous struggles for more than 100 years, such as the early Reform and Reform, the Revolution of 1911 and the New Culture Movement, and the later National Revolution, War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the Liberation War. It was not until the founding of New China overthrew the oppression of imperialism, feudalism and bureaucratic capitalism that China realized its national independence and freedom and completed its modern historical task.

Extended data:

The social nature of modern China was a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The fundamental reason why China became a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society lies in imperialist aggression. The imperialist aggression has brought about two changes in China: on the one hand, advanced modes of production have emerged, national capitalism has developed to a certain extent, and a single feudal society has become a semi-feudal society; On the other hand, with the intensification of imperialist aggression, China has changed from an independent feudal country to a semi-colonial country.
