Features: This textbook is one of the outcomes of the Ministry of Education's "Reform of Teaching Content and Curriculum System towards the 21st Century" project—"Optimization of the Teaching System of Marxist Philosophy for Normal University Politics and Education Majors." The purpose of writing this book is to provide undergraduate students in politics and education majors of normal universities with a practical textbook that is beneficial for both their learning and teaching practice after graduation. Since the reform and opening-up of China, significant changes have occurred in the political, economic, and ideological landscape domestically. The practice of socialist construction in China has accumulated rich experience for the development of Marxist philosophy, while the advancement of modern science has also provided many new achievements for its development. Domestic researchers in Marxist philosophy have made great progress in theory. All these factors compel us to revise and compile a new textbook that can more comprehensively reflect the characteristics of the times and the state of social development. This book provides a comprehensive and systematic introduction to Marxist philosophy. It is divided into seventeen chapters, including an introduction to philosophy, practical materialism, historical materialism, the basic structure of society, the fundamental contradictions of society and their movement, the inevitable trends of social development, the nature of human beings and their development, and human sustainable development and its prospects. The book is rich in theory and easy to understand, making it an excellent educational resource.
