	Constitution of the People's Republic of China - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Constitution has five sections: the preamble, general principles, the fundamental rights and duties of citizens, the structure of the state, and the national flag and emblems of state.
		Accordingly, Article 1 of the State Constitution describes China as a "people's democratic dictatorship," meaning that the system is based on an alliance of the working classes--in communist terminology, the workers and peasants--and is led by the Communist Party, the vanguard of the working class.
		Whereas the 1978 constitution stressed "self-reliance" in modernization efforts, the 1982 document provides the constitutional basis for the considerable body of laws passed by the NPC in subsequent years permitting and encouraging extensive foreign participation in all aspects of the economy.

		In addition, PRC Vice Premier Qian Qichen was busy expounding a new definition of the "one China principle," which says "both the mainland and Taiwan belong to the same 'one China,'" instead of listing Taiwan as a part of the PRC.
		While most of them identify with China and wish for economic integration with the mainland, very few would accept the PRC, whose Constitution requires its citizens adhere to four totalitarian principles: the socialist road, the proletariat dictatorship, the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party, and Marxism-Leninism and Mao Tse-tung Thought.
		The future "one China," like the EU or a loose confederation, will have to be for members of similar governmental systems, not incompatible ones.
