Abstract: Xi Jinping’s important discourse on the new quality of productive forces is an innovative achievement of the sinicization of Marxist productive forces theory, and an important component of his economic thought, containing profound dialectical materialism and historical materialism implications. The philosophical implications of this important discourse are manifested as follows: the pragmatic epistemology reveals that the new quality productivity is the essential connotation of new productivity, innovative productivity, and green productivity; the methodology of dialectical materialism reveals the basic principles of adhering to the principle of first establishing and then breaking, adapting to local conditions, and providing classified guidance; the people-centered subjectivity theory reveals the value of stimulating people’s subjectivity, unleashing their creativity, and sharing development achievements with the people; and the system theory of overall consideration reveals that the new quality productivity is a systematic integration of interconnected internal elements in terms of factors, subjects, and guarantee mechanisms.

Key words: Xi Jinping’s economic thought, new quality productivity, philosophical implication, high quality development, Chinese style modernization
