Features: This book is a collection of some papers and speeches by Mr. Zhang Dainian that were publicly published in the mid-1980s of the last century. It primarily explores the characteristics and content of Chinese and Western cultures, the ideological foundation and essential spirit of Chinese culture, and aspects such as cultural traditions and modernization construction from the perspective of philosophical thought. The book analyzes issues such as the relationship between the form and function of culture, material interests and moral thought, and proposes several new insights on culture and philosophy. The discussion on cultural issues in the text fully demonstrates Mr. Zhang's advocacy for integrating the strengths of both Chinese and Western cultures to create a new Chinese culture, known as the "Comprehensive Innovation Theory."
