Abstract:

In the next five years, China will be in the crucial stage of the second transformation and reform, which takes the transformation of development mode as the main line. The transformation and reform of this time bear a strong imprint of the times, not only demanding China to regard the urgency of the transformation of development method from the variety of external and external markets, but also requiring China to understand and grasp the realistic need and basic trend of the transformation of development mode from the big trend of structural change in domestic demand. At the present, the basic trend of structural change in China' s social need is mainly marked by the development from living necessity to enduring consumables, and from private product to public product, and from substances to humans, the foundation of which lies in China' s starting to enter into the new stage of development type, and the essence of which lies in the basic need of human' s own development. The transformation of social need structure inevitably requests the corresponding change of development mode. Generally speaking, as the historic starting point of the second transformation and reform, the National Twelfth FiveYear Plan concerns the crucial five years of achieving a historic change for reform development and requires urgently to carry out the "four big changes": the change from investment dominance to consumption dominance; the change from industrialization dominance to urbanization dominance; the change from the shortage of public product to the equalization of basic public service in urban and rural areas; and the change from middle or high carbon economy to low carbon economy. In order to realize these changes, the most important is the transformation of government, that is, a doctrine of GDP increase being abandoned by government in such a decisive way that the following can be brought about: the change from the "economy growth" to the "economy development"; the change from the "nationwealth priority" to the "peoplewealth priority"; the change from the "making a big cake" to the "sharing a big cake"; and the change from the "profitmaking" of stateowned capital to the "public welfare" of stateowned capital.

Key words: National Twelfth Five Year Plan, transformation of development mode, structure of social requirement, second transformation and reform, transformation of government
