The compilation of the general history of the Communist Party of China has always been a basic index to measure the research level of the party history and the construction of the party history discipline. In 1951, Hu Qiao-mu's compiling on Thirty Years of the Communist Party of China was the starting point of compiling the general history of the CPC. The practical logic of Hu Qiao-mu's compiling the general history of the party was the research activity he participated in the 1940s. The compiling paradigm of the Thirty Years of the Communist Party of China mainly has been included: creating a precedent for the CPC history after the founding of new China;determining the analysis and comment on the important events and conferences of the CPC history; and establishing the theoretical system of the periodization of the CPC history. When looking into the process of compiling the general history of the CPC, educational circles should systematically recognize the profound influence of Hu Qiao-mu's compiling paradigm on the subsequent writing of the CPC history.
