Abstract : Developed countries have all gone through a process of upgrading and rationalizing their
economic structure in the process of gradually achieving modernization. This paper examines the
evolution characteristics of economic growth, industrial structure, demand structure, distribution structure,
trade structure, population structure, and technological structure at different stages of economic
development in typical developed economies, summarizes the evolution law of economic structure in the
evolution process of economic modernization, and provides experience enlightenment for comprehensi
vely promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese path to modernization from the
perspective of economic structure change. Research has found that with the improvement of economic
development levels in various countries, there will be a slowdown in economic growth, an increasingly
service-oriented industrial system, a consumption driven domestic demand structure, an widening income
distribution gap, global value chain trade becoming the mainstay, an increasingly severe aging population,
and a continuous improvement in the digitalization, intelligence, and service-oriented levels of industries.
At present, China has basically achieved industrialization, but faces problems such as slowing economic
growth, low consumption proportion, insufficient development of the service industry, prominent security
issues in the industrial and supply chains, high income gap, negative population growth and aging before
getting rich, weak localization and independent innovation, and dependence on imports for cutting-edge
core technologies. In the process of Chinese path to modernization, we should maintain the reasonable
growth of economic volume and effective improvement of quality; build a new efficient service industry
system and consolidate the industrial structure foundation for economic development; make efforts to
expand domestic demand and form a virtuous cycle of mutual promotion between consumption and
investment; seize the opportunity of restructuring the global value chain and achieve mutual promotion of
domestic and international economic cycles; adhere to the development concept of putting the people at the
center, and solidly promote common prosperity in high-quality development; actively address population
aging and maximizing the dynamic role of population in economic and social development; continuously
improve the level of technological innovation and accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system
supported by the real economy.
Key words: Chinese path to modernization; economic structure; common prosperity
