Features: This book is guided by the materialist conception of history from Marxism and consciously applies dialectical materialism to analyze issues, combining history with logic. Building on existing research, it conducts a comprehensive examination of the "Five Anti" Campaign, a significant event in the history of the Communist Party of China, from political, economic, and social perspectives, striving to elevate the study of the "Five Anti" Campaign to a new level. The "Five Anti" Campaign was a major decision taken by the Communist Party of China after it came to power, aimed at maintaining the diligence and integrity of communists and state cadres, and combating the serious illegal activities of unlawful capitalists. It was the first large-scale mass political movement in the history of New China to crack down on the illegal business practices of unlawful capitalists. Over 50 years have passed since this movement, and today, reflecting on this vibrant mass movement of half a century ago holds significant practical implications for building the Party, the state, and the economy under the reform and opening-up context. It also provides insights into handling the relationship between state-owned and private economies in the primary stage of socialism, where multiple forms of economic ownership coexist, as well as the interactions between emerging private entrepreneurs and other interest groups, in the pursuit of building a harmonious socialist society. Before delving into specific issues, the author briefly introduces the "Five Anti" Campaign and the research conducted on it, to give readers a general overview and understanding of the movement.
