Traditional cultural conservatism and nihilism fight struggle against each other. The CCP is proposed to inherit critically Chinese traditional culture, to cap to establish scientific and national, public new-democratic culture. The CCP critically inherited traditional Chinese culture, and developed the new culture construction under the guidance of Marxism in the early stage of New China.
