In November 2023, Shanghai Party Institute (SPI) of CPC (Shanghai Administration Institute,SAI)), published a bilingual (Chinese-English) textbook titled Why Shanghai?— Stories of Chinese Modernization. Designed with the interests and concerns of overseas readers in mind, the book presents case-based narratives that explore themes of broad relevance, including China's distinctive revolutionary sites, economic development, people's wellbeing, urban governance, and openness and win-win cooperation. Through these themes, it vividly portrays Shanghai as a distinguished symbol of Chinese modernization.

In its international training programs, SPI (SAI) remains committed to "better telling China's stories, making China's voice heard, and presenting a China that is credible, appealing, and respectable."
