Features: This textbook consists of an introduction and five parts: Introduction, Ontology of Law, Structure of Law, Operation of Law, Legal Methods, and the Rule of Law State. The introduction primarily introduces basic knowledge of jurisprudence, especially legal theory. Part I, Ontology of Law, focuses on the nature and definition of law, elaborating on the "meta" or fundamental issues of law. Part II, Structure of Law, mainly discusses the phenomena of law and its technical composition. Part III, Operation of Law, primarily examines the mechanisms and principles of the formulation and implementation of real-world law. Part IV, Legal Methods, emphasizes the analysis and introduction of the professional skills and thinking patterns of legal practitioners in thinking and solving legal problems. Part V, the Rule of Law State, primarily introduces the general patterns of the evolution and development of legal systems, especially the theoretical and practical issues of institutional changes related to China's rule of law construction. The structure of this textbook, "Jurisprudence," is arranged on one hand to enhance the practicality of jurisprudence textbooks, enabling students to improve their ability to engage in legal professions through the study of jurisprudence. On the other hand, it attempts to emphasize the important role and practical significance of theoretical issues in legal practice. At the same time, this structural arrangement also attempts to better cover the requirements of jurisprudence in the "Basic Requirements for Core Courses in Law Programs in Higher Education" issued by the Ministry of Education, reflecting the latest developments in jurisprudence teaching.
