Definition
五年计划 is a historically and politically loaded term for China's national economic and social development plans, first introduced in the 1950s under the Soviet model. Each plan covers a five-year period (e.g., 2021–2025 is the 14th Five-Year Plan) and sets targets for growth, industry, infrastructure, and social welfare. In Chinese discourse, it's often shortened to 五年规划 (though the official term is 国民经济和社会发展五年规划). The word carries strong institutional weight — you'll hear it in news, government reports, and discussions about long-term development.
