The third World Congress on Marxism will be held at Peking University in Beijing from July 17 to 18, the organizers said Wednesday.
More than 200 Marxist scholars from home and abroad have signed up to attend the congress. It is regarded as an important platform to promote international research on Marxism and boost academic exchanges in the field since its inauguration in 2015.
This year's conference will take place online and offline due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
A series of forums and seminars will take place under the theme "Marxism and Modernization," according to Yu Wenli, vice president of the School of Marxism of Peking University.
Yang Haifeng, the school's president, said the congress, to be held as the Communist Party of China celebrates its centenary this year, will contribute to research on the adaptation of Marxism to the Chinese context.
The first two editions of the congress took place in 2015 and 2018, respectively.
