Abstract: To achieve the goals and tasks of the new journey in a new era, China must comprehensively deepen reform as the fundamental driving force for promoting Chinese-type modernization. Compared with the objective needs of promoting Chinese-type modernization, there are still some incompatibilities in China's state system and governance system. We must consciously put reform in a more prominent position, continue to improve and develop the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, promote the modernization of the state governance system and capacity, and provide a strong institutional guarantee for Chinese-type modernization.
