Xi has overseen the increase of "Socialist Political Economy With Chinese Characteristics" as a major study topic for academics in China, aiming to decrease the influence of Western-influenced economics. Though he has called a stop to what he considers to be "disorderly expansion of capital", he has also said that "it is necessary to stimulate the vitality of capital of all types, including nonpublic capital, and give full play to its positive role." Xi has formulated the [[new concept for development]], stressing the importance of [[high-quality development]] rather than "inflated growth".{{Cite web |last=Hui |first=Mary |date=16 February 2022 |title=What China means when it says it wants "high quality" GDP growth |url=https://qz.com/2119395/what-china-means-by-high-quality-economic-growth/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220813205819/https://qz.com/2119395/what-china-means-by-high-quality-economic-growth/ |archive-date=13 August 2022 |access-date=13 August 2022 |website=[[Quartz (publication)|Quartz]] |language=en}} He has stated China has abandoned a growth-at-all-costs strategy which Xi refers to as "GDP heroism".{{Sfn|Marquis|Qiao|2022|p=22}} Instead, Xi said other social issues such as environmental protection are important.{{Sfn|Marquis|Qiao|2022|p=22}} |

Xi spoke out against wealth inequality in a 2021 ''[[Qiushi]]'' article, stating "We cannot allow the gap between the rich and the poor to continue growing—for the poor to keep getting poorer while the rich continue growing richer. We cannot permit the wealth gap to become an unbridgeable gulf". He added "We must maintain the public ownership system as the mainstay and simultaneously develop the economics of a variety of ownership systems. . . . We should allow some people to get rich first, while emphasizing that those who get rich first should bring along others and help them get rich".{{sfn|Rudd|2024|p=173}} |
