Features: From a formal perspective, most of the articles selected for this book are historical and cultural materials provided by the political consultative organizations across the country. These 50 years are precisely the period when the collection of historical and cultural materials is subject to time limits. More importantly, in terms of content, Chinese society has been in constant turmoil and transformation throughout these 50 years. Foreign powers repeatedly invaded, internal conflicts were frequent, wars and disasters were relentless, political darkness and bureaucratic corruption prevailed, leading to rampant banditry, gangsterism, widespread drug abuse, and brothels. Major cases occurred one after another, and the world was terrifying. Such scenes and situations are rarely found in the history of the nation. As a result, the historical materials left to us today indeed have a strong necessity for compilation and documentation.
