Features: Marxist political economy is an important component of Marxism. It serves as both an economic science that helps us understand and study capitalism from a theoretical perspective and a theoretical guide for socialist economic construction and reform and opening-up. The Marxist political economy mentioned here primarily includes the fundamental principles and methods established by Marx, as well as the economic ideas and theories developed later by Lenin, Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, and the Party Central Committee. It also encompasses the achievements in the study of contemporary capitalism and socialism by the academic community, guided by Marxism. The distinctive feature of this book in terms of content is its greater emphasis on socialist political economy and the content related to economic globalization and international economic relations. The reviewer of this book, Professor Gu Yumin of Tongji University, a member of the Teaching Guidance Committee for Marxist Theory Courses in Ordinary Universities of the Ministry of Education, evaluates the book as follows: "This is a high-quality textbook. The book consistently adheres to the fundamental theories of Marxist political economy while reflecting new developments in theory through practical application, effectively demonstrating the theoretical quality of Marxism that keeps pace with the times. The basic theoretical viewpoints of the textbook are correct, and the discussions on issues are profound, with many analyses offering fresh insights."
