Features: Pre-Qin Confucian thought on integrity is the cultural root of integrity construction in contemporary Chinese society. This book employs the historical materialist method to explore in detail the historical origins and contextual background of Pre-Qin Confucian thought on integrity, outlines its developmental trajectory with clarity, summarizes its fundamental content scientifically, and elaborates on its basic characteristics systematically. Building on an objective summary of the historical value of Pre-Qin Confucian thought on integrity, the book scientifically positions its modern significance in the context of China's three strategic deployments for building a moderately prosperous society in all respects—specifically, in the development of socialist material civilization, socialist political civilization, and socialist spiritual civilization.
