In the hundred years since the founding of the Communist Party of China, the concept of the moral education has undergone five stages of evolution. In the revolutionary war years, cultivating the "revolutionary youth" with the communist consciousness is the primary concern for morality. Since the establishment of the higher education in Yan'an, the party's exploration of the connotation of morality and the way of fostering people began to take shape, with a moral form based on Marxism established, the traditional culture criticized and absorbed, and a practice-first education method adopted. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the "red and professional" standard is gradually formed for educating people, and the policy of cultivating people was repeatedly adjusted between a practical goal and a theoretical one. After the reform and opening up, the Communist Party of China highly emphasized the education of ideals and beliefs, and at the same time opened the way of fostering people in the education modernization. Entering the new era, the connotation of Lide has been greatly adjusted on the basis of history, the status of the traditional culture has risen from the "historical heritage" to the "cultural gene", and the policy of fostering people has become more political and contemporary. This characteristic, which is inherited and developed with the times, is the source for the Communist Party of China to maintain the strong vitality of a Marxist party.
