Features: Humanity has experienced a long history and created splendid culture. Standing at the height of history and from the perspective of all humanity, the author of The Concept of Republic looks back on the past and looks ahead to the future, proposing a brand-new philosophical proposition: "Republic." It is called new because the "Republic" advocated in the book differs from the ancient Chinese "Republic" practiced by the Duke of Zhou and Zhaosun, and also differs from the "Republic" in modern Western political science. Its perspective is higher, its vision broader, and its embrace wider. It is a multipolar and diverse harmony—harmony in diversity, inclusive and coexistent, developing together. It represents equality, peace, and mutual prosperity among people, among nations, among countries, among regions, and between humanity and nature. Peace and development are the themes of the current era, recognized by people in vast countries and regions around the world. However, they still need further theoretical exploration and in-depth philosophical arguments on how to achieve true peace, friendship, and common development. Undoubtedly, the author of this book has taken the lead and opened up a new perspective. This is a visionary work worth reading for a broad audience.
Target Audience: Political theorists, historians, philosophers, and readers with a junior high school education or higher.
