Features: The guiding principles of this book mainly include two aspects: First, the writing content is organized based on the "Basic Requirements for Teaching Mao Zedong Thought" issued by the Ministry of Education. In other words, the introduction of important issues in the field of Mao Zedong Thought research is aligned with the "Basic Requirements for Teaching Mao Zedong Thought," and even the design of the topics strives to reflect this characteristic. As a result, some content or topics originally belonging to Mao Zedong Thought or the study of Mao Zedong Thought had to be reluctantly omitted, such as Mao Zedong's literary thought, philosophical thought, military thought, etc., because these topics are not considered key content in the "Introduction to Mao Zedong Thought" course in universities, or are covered less frequently, or are not covered at all. Second, it is practical, meaning it is convenient for instructors of the "Introduction to Mao Zedong Thought" course to use. Since the original knowledge backgrounds of the course instructors differ, their past focuses vary, and their teaching tasks are heavy, we made every effort in the writing process to provide a relatively comprehensive introduction and evaluation of the issues involved, enabling instructors to gain a systematic understanding of the debate status, latest developments, and existing problems. To facilitate the reading and reference of, we arranged the order of chapters and topics as much as possible to align with the chapter arrangement of the "Basic Requirements for Teaching Mao Zedong Thought" and the approved textbook "Introduction to Mao Zedong Thought," while also considering the completeness of the topic research.
