The book argues that "the People's Livelihoodism," also known as "Sun's Socialism," is pluralistic. The "Industrial Plan" outlines a systematic project for material civilization construction with modern significance. "Equal Land Rights" and "Farmer Owning Their Land" weave a blueprint for land system construction from urban to rural areas and from the past to the future across multiple dimensions of time and space. "Regulating Capital" seeks to establish an ownership structure with a dominant state economy alongside diverse economic components. The pioneering regional economic strategy from east to central to west, as well as the systematic thinking in economic construction, all challenge traditional academic views and introduce breakthroughs and innovations.
