    The 12th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party was convened from September 1–11, 1982. The path of modernization through socialism was laid out. 1,600 delegates and 160 alternate delegates represented the party's 39.65 million members. It was preceded by the 11th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, and succeeded by the 13th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party. It coincided with the time in which leader Deng Xiaoping was Chairman of the Central Advisory Commission.[1]

    Content

    At the 12th National Congress, Hu Yaobang's report addressed the Chinese diplomatic concept of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, stating, "China adheres to an independent foreign policy and develops relationships with other countries under the guidance of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence."[1] According to the view articulated by Hu in his report, "China will never be dependent on any big country or group of countries, nor will it yield to the pressure of any big country [...] The Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence apply to our relations with all countries, including socialist countries."[2]

    Chinese unification was among the CCP priorities identified by Deng.[3]: 141 

    1982 Party constitution

    The 12th National Congress adopted the Communist Party's constitution.[4]: 117  Although the constitution has been revised since, its basic content continues to be the 1982 constitution.[4]: 117 

    The Party's oath has been written into the constitution since 12th National Congress.[4]: 117
