Abstract: Shared development is the value pursuit always upheld and insisted on by the Communist Party of China since it was founded. Since the founding of New China, the Party's shared development thought has gone through a gradual progress, from the establishment of the theme and the foundation-laying of the system in the first thirty years of New China, to the theoretical formation and practical innovation in the new period of reform and opening up, then to the theory sublimation and vision expansion of the new age of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The evolutionary course presents a path with ever enriched connotations, continuously expanded scope and constantly widened vision. The formation and development of the idea of shared development is not only the value projection of the ideals and pursuits of the Communist Party of China in practice, but also the historical and logical certainty of the continuous development of the socialist cause, which embodies the unity of value concepts and practical paths. To promote the shared development, we must always adhere to the people-centered approach, we must correctly handle the relationship between fairness and efficiency in response to the changes in major social contradictions, and we must take care of the world development.

Key words: common prosperity, shared development ideas, people-centered, community with a shared future for mankind
