As a core content of the scientific development concept, the development concept of "people foremost" is based on two scientific annotations, namely the conceptions of people and development concept. In terms of the conception of people, Marx claimed that people are the existence of society, not the abstract existence. People are firstly involved in certain social relationships and are consequently engaged in some social activities. The essence of human is basically decided by their social relationships which are made up of their practical activities. The "people", which is included in the "people foremost" development concept, means the concourse that represents majority of the population on the primary stage of socialism. The principal part of the concept is the entire group of the contributor of socialism. The development concept is located in the category of history and also in the realism category as well. People in different historical periods have different opinions toward development and thus the distinct opinions have lead to different development concepts. In addition, different people in the same historical period and their different angle of view also build up different development concepts. The Marxism development theory is based on the practical concept of dialectic materialism, and is a developmental theory which is established in the liberation of human as well as the unrestricted development of human beings. The "people foremost" development concept is the core part of the scientific development conception based on the Marxism development theory, and emphasis on the harmonious development of politics, economy, culture and society.The establishment and development of the "people foremost" have a long history. In the western society, the development of "people foremost" is based on the activities against "divinity foremost". The "people foremost" concept of Marxism has emphasis on the final liberation of the proletariate and the entire human group. The "people foremost" development concept has inherited the theory of human's full development of Marxism. The concept also concludes the essential ideas of contemporary development theory claimed by French economist and so forth, and suggests that the final objective is to facilitate the comprehensive development of the majority of the human beings. Moreover, the theory claims that the realistic goal is to satisfy most people's demands of material and culture, and ensures the harmonious development of people and economical society, based on the motivity of human's enthusiasm and creativity.The basic dimensions of human practical activities are consists of the relation between human and nature as well as the relation between human and society. Human's status in the nature and society changes along with the expansion and penetration of their practical activities. The development concept of "people foremost" can only be represented by the relation between human and nature as well as the dimensions of human and society. In the dimension of the relation of human and society, the value of human is the most important. The understanding and acknowledgement of the relation between human and nature should comply with the development objective of "people foremost". The principle of "people foremost" is to satisfy people's needs of survival and development, and is based on the inherent connection of human and nature. The "people foremost" concept does not have the superiority over the order of the nature. It should have the precondition of acknowledging and accepting the order of the nature. By continuing exploitation, utilizing natural resources, maintaining the circulation and homeostasis of ecosystem, the concept aims to help people overcome the traditional mode of development (i.e. simply considering economic growth as the highest value tropism) and finally overcome the tense and opposed relationship between human and nature. In the dimension, people should understand and respect the rule of history. Identifying the dialectic relationship between human and society is the precondition of predominating and conducting "people foremost" concept. Meanwhile, the value of people should also be endowed with the pattern, goal and perspective of social development. This can be useful for maintaining the organic harmony of politics, economy, society and culture, and this can also avoid the risks and mistakes of using economic growth to replace, cover up or even sacrifice the human development. The objective of "people foremost" development concept is to ensure the complete and unrestricted development of human beings. Based on the objective, the concept provides people the scientific theoretical basics to solve the conflicts between human and nature, among human beings, and to resolve the international environment problems occurred during the national developments.
