Features: Sociology is closely linked with social practice. The vibrant practice of the broad masses in building socialism with Chinese characteristics has accumulated a wealth of material for sociological theoretical research. The sociological field has been closely integrated with practical realities, providing numerous research outcomes that contribute to the innovation of sociological theory. In this revision, we have strived to utilize these new findings to enrich and update certain chapters of this book, while also making deletions and modifications to some content in certain chapters to enhance the academic rigor, scientific validity, and normative standards of the book. This is the first. Second, we have attempted to apply the fundamental principles of sociology to analyze and solve some practical problems, using data and charts to illustrate the issues, while also refining the text to improve the book's applicability, operability, and readability.
