多年来，中国从实际出发，把握时代大势，坚持人民主体地位，把以经济建设为中心同坚持四项基本原则、坚持改革开放这两个基本点统一于中国特色社会主义伟大实践，遵循创新、协调、绿色、开放、共享的发展理念，走出了一条中国特色发展道路，为丰富和完善发展权理念作出了自己的贡献。
——生存权和发展权是首要的基本人权。贫穷是实现人权的最大障碍。没有物质资料的生产和供给，人类其他一切权利的实现都是非常困难或不可能的。发展既是消除贫困的手段，也为实现其他人权提供了条件，还是人实现自身潜能的过程。发展权贯穿于其他各项人权之中，其他人权为人的发展和发展权的实现创造条件。发展权的保障，既表现在经济、文化、社会、环境权利的实现之中，又表现在公民权利与政治权利的获得之中。中国赞赏联合国《发展权利宣言》所强调的表述——发展权是一项不可剥夺的人权，由于这种权利，每个人和所有各国人民均有权参与、促进并享受经济、社会、文化和政治发展，在这种发展中，所有人权和基本自由都能获得充分实现。
Over the years, proceeding from reality and following the trend of the times, China has maintained the people's principal position in the country and created its own path by taking the central task of economic development and upholding the Four Cardinal Principles [Note: The Four Cardinal Principles refer to the principles of adhering to the socialist path, the people's democratic dictatorship, the leadership of the CPC, and Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought. The Four Cardinal Principles are the foundation of the state, and the political cornerstone for the survival and development of the Party and the state.] and the policy of reform and opening-up to serve its practice of Chinese socialism, and following the philosophy of innovative, balanced, eco-friendly, open and shared development, and thus contributed to enriching and improving the concept of right to development.
The rights to subsistence and development are the primary, basic human rights. Poverty is the biggest obstacle to human rights. Without the production and supply of material goods, it is difficult or even impossible to realize any other human right. Development is a means of eliminating poverty. It provides necessary conditions for realizing other human rights, and releases human potential. The right to development is incorporated into other human rights, while the latter create the conditions for people to facilitate development and realize the right to development. Safeguarding the right to development is the precondition for realizing economic, cultural, social and environmental rights, and obtaining civil and political rights. China appreciates the articulation in the UN's "Declaration on the Right to Development" : "The right to development is an inalienable human right by virtue of which every human person and all peoples are entitled to participate in, contribute to, and enjoy economic, social, cultural and political development, in which all human rights and fundamental freedoms can be fully realized."
