Features: This book is written for a university that has endured hardships, and more so for the Chinese humanities and social sciences education and research that have faced numerous challenges.
From the banks of the Yan River, beneath the shade of Qingliang Mountain, to the western suburbs of Beijing, amidst the hustle and bustle of the city; from being the center of attention to nearly closing down, and then to establishing the goal of building a "world-class" institution, Renmin University of China has experienced great ups and downs, clearly reflecting the trajectory of the nation's rise and fall. At the same time, based on rational understanding and objective analysis, it does not shy away from contradictions or hide problems, striving to expose the difficulties and dilemmas faced by Renmin University of China and the Chinese humanities and social sciences, as well as the, short-sightedness, and biases in their development, calling for a better future for China.
