Abstract The Chinese Communist Party guides the development of scientific enterprise in China on the principle of Combining Theory with Practice. The relationship between theory and practice is complex. How to comprehend and carry out this principle was one of the key issues for the scientific research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and its development during the period from the founding of the People's Republic of China to the beginning of the Cultural Revolution in China. Regulations of Supervising Research of CAS (Thirty-six Items for short) in 1964 is the first formal and systematic regulation that tries to work out this issus. Based on archives and oral sources, this paper traces the context of the establishment of Thirty-six Items, and its drawing up, promulgation and being put into effect. It then points out that the essence of Thirty-six Items is the catagorization of science research work, with the purpose of attempting to protect the theoretical research of CAS under changeable political atmosphere emphasizing extremely and simplistically Combining Theory with Practice, which did have specified significance on CAS's history.
