CHINA-IDEOLOGY

 The CCP's official newspaper People’s Daily on June 14, 2015, launched an assault on colour revolutions, saying the movements are a by-product of the United States spreading its ideology. Page five of the newspaper carried five articles written by scholars exploring the roots of colour revolutions, their negative impacts, and how China might learn from the experience of those nations affected. 

Professor Xu Songwen, of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, wrote that "colour revolutions" were "most likely in nations that had a combination of slow economic development, high unemployment, and corruption" adding that “The one non-neglectable factor [in the development of] colour revolutions in these countries is the spreading of Western ideology, especially from the US." Zhang Zhizhou, Professor of International Relations at Beijing Foreign Studies University, wrote that blindly introducing Western social reforms led only to chaos and “There should be exploration of one’s own path and model instead of following the ‘superstition of Western institutions’.” Others who wrote included Professor Qiao Mu, Dean of Beijing Foreign Studies University’s Centre for International Communication Studies, Gu Su, Professor of Political Philosophy at Nanjing University.
The articles described "colour revolutions" as “enemies of national security” and “a source of rioting”.
