The livelihood of people means the most people’s survival and development. Its development has been the general tone of social development since the human history, especially in modern times. Today, in striving for China dream journey, improving the livelihood of people becomes the first priority. The Communist Party of China, since it’s creation, has been taking improving people’s livelihood as the foundation of the ruling,and has obtained achievements and rich experience in practice.Liu Shaoqi, as an important member of the first generation collective leadership of the communist party of china, had deep concerns of the people’s livelihood. He had made a more comprehensive and profound interpretation for improving people’s livelihood. His theory and practice about the livelihood of people reveals the richness and complexity of the modern China livelihood development. The Study of Liu-ShaoQi’s theory and practice about the livelihood of people can help us to sum up the historical experience, and to promote contemporary China’s livelihood development more consciously and more scientifically.According to interpretation mode of "the masses concern--Liu Shaoqi’s thinking and decision--the practice effect", comprehensively using comparative, institutional analysis, The paper divides the development of Liu Shaoqi’s theory and practice about the livelihood of people into four phases,thus to comprehensively study its unique character. The four stage of Liu Shaoqi’s theory and practice of the livelihood of people is:its budding and creation in the stage of the Democratic Revolution; its growth and span in the restoration of national economy; its development and error in early stages of socialist construction; its success and failure in the adjustment of national economy.In the stage of the democratic revolution, Liu Shaoqi had been edified by the traditional people based thought and the democratic ideas in modern times,then accepted Marxis and Leninism, and went on to overthrow the revolutionary road of old regime. He always adhere to gain and maintain the interests of the majority of the masses of workers and peasants as the starting point and the foothold,thus made the revolution win the support of the masses, and finally established the people’s democratic dictatorship, laid the political basis for the prosperity of the country and happiness of the people.In the beginning of the founding of the national,that is economic recovery period,the regime was not steady,a lot of things waited to be done.On such basis, how to meet the public demand to improve the life was a huge challenge for the new leader of Chinese. Liu Shaoqi and other world leaders set up new democratic development program, make national economy rapidly recovered. In order to make the people’s living standard improved greatly, Liu Shaoqi leaped to the socialist road.The establishment of the socialist system provided a new scenario for the development of the people’s livelihood. Liu Shaoqi actively explored how to achieve the improvement of people’s livelihood under the socialist conditions.He put forward many correct principles and methods. But because of the lack of full understanding of the tension between large-scale industrial construction and people’s life, the socialist practice gradually deviated from the people’s livelihood development track. Liu Shaoqi tried to correct the errors, and thought a lot about it.In order to overcome the serious difficulties, the Central Committee of CPC took measures to adjust the national economy, Liu Shaoji incharged of the adjustment work. He adopted a series of reform measures to improve the livelihood of the people, The national economy got better soon. Subsequently, The different methods and path to improve the livelihood of the people between Liu Shaoqi and Mao Zedong gradually went public, the class struggle and the ideological string are pulled taut again.Liu-Shaoqi’s theory and practice about the livelihood of people has the same points with of Mao Zedong’s. At the same time, there are differences and disputes between them,which fully reflects the complexity and arduous of the construction of our people’s livelihood.Under the condition of the new era, Deng Xiaoping carried forward Liu-Shaoqi’s theory and practice about the livelihood of people, made the people’s living standard greatly improved rapidly.The development of Liu Shaoqi’s theory and practice about the livelihood of people deducts the contradiction and logic of the development of china before the reform and opening, and provides important reference and Enlightenment for improvement of people’s livelihood in China’s new period.
