Features: This book also adheres to this line of thinking in its analysis of reform and the technological revolution, and is therefore quite persuasive, even quite brilliant. Due to limited space, I won’t elaborate further. In short, it is not about echoing others, but about independent thinking; not about skimming the surface, but about in-depth research; not about being confined to exploring only one aspect or field of Marxism, but regarding it as a "whole" and elevating it to a philosophical level to examine the relationship between its "core" and its conclusions; not about being detached from "reality," but about discovering the logical position of "reality" within Marxist theoretical deduction and using this to explore the entire history and reality of contemporary socialism, arriving at at least an impressive and highly explanatory structure. And so on, and so on—this is the reason why I consider this book "rare" and have written this preface to introduce it. The book discusses the essential meaning of Marxism from a completely new perspective, conducts an in-depth study of the series of major issues faced by contemporary socialism, and holds significant guiding significance for the academic and theoretical communities in thoroughly understanding the connection between Marxism and the new era of socialism.
