These are some important features of the Communist Party of China :
1. The Party's Genesis: It was founded by Mao and others because Chinese governance needed a new look after the old one had apparently failed. In fact, it wasn't that Confucian government had failed: it was because Chinese officials and the Emperor forgot Confucius' instructions. So Mao called his revolution communist' even though Confucius' teaching was much more radical than any written by Marx : "The Common Good: Chinese and American Perspectives".
2. Membership qualifications: They must swear to serve the people first and enjoy the fruits of their service last.
3. Membership behavior : Most of the 90,000,000 Party members do, in fact, serve the people first and enjoy the fruits of their service last. That's a lot of unselfish people and, when they act together, they can influence the whole country.
4. Party power : They use their power democratically and have dismissed several heads of State since 1950. They do not tolerate underperforming leaders as we do.
5. Leadership behavior : You can see that the Party's leaders and theoreticians are substituting Confucian terminology for Marxist language. China is retiring to the Confucian roots it never left-only this time the Party is interpreting Confucius doctrine of compassion radically.
