Collective study gets a renewed emphasis

The collective study of the CPC Central Committee Political Bureau, a Party tradition, has gained new momentum in the past five years.

Observers said they have seen the Party's aspiration to improve itself through frequent studies and new factors in class, as well as to understand the focus of the Communist Party of China by analyzing its code - themes of the massive studies.

Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, the Political Bureau has held 43 collective studies, once per month on average, focusing on various subjects.
