Features: This book is a study on the ontology of moral education and a unique work on the history and theory of moral education. Works on the history of moral education are rare, with only a few available, such as "History of Moral Education Thought" in China or abroad. These are mostly based on social development stages, introducing the moral education thoughts of representative figures. Of course, it is rare to find works like "History of Moral Education Curriculum" or "History of Moral Education Teaching," and even those are quite thin. The uniqueness of this book lies in its use of the historical evolution of moral life as the main thread, elucidating the moral education goals, functions, methods, and systems of each historical period, as well as the transformation of moral education in history. In the fourth chapter and the concluding remarks, the book offers insightful perspectives on China's moral education reform and the dialectical relationship between pluralistic values and harmony. The book also compares the moral education models of different Western countries and contrasts the moral education models in Chinese and Western cultural contexts. This approach naturally integrates the exploration of Western moral education evolution with the exploration of Chinese moral education evolution, forming a cohesive whole for the study of moral education in both East and West.
