Features: Our library has always attached great importance to the translation of academic works from around the world. Since the 1950s, we have been dedicated to translating and publishing classical academic works before the birth of Marxism, while also appropriately introducing representative works of various recognized schools. Thanks to the support of scholars and translators, we have published over 300 titles in the past three decades. We firmly believe that only by enriching our minds with the entire wealth of human knowledge can we build a modern socialist society. The intellectual wealth and academic value contained in these books are well-known to scholars and need no elaboration. In the past, these translations were published as separate volumes, making it difficult to see the bigger picture. Compiling them into a series allows them to complement each other and create a grand collection, which is both convenient for research and study and beneficial for cultural accumulation. For this reason, from 1981 to 1992, we published 260 classic works in six volumes. We are now continuing to compile the seventh volume, aiming to reach 300 titles by 1997. In the future, we will continue to publish these classics based on the accumulation of individual works. Since we used the original typesetting, the translations have not been reproofread, and the formatting is not entirely consistent. We have corrected or removed prefaces and postfaces from the original translations where applicable. The reading community fully understands the need to approach these works with a correct analytical attitude, extracting their useful essence while discarding outdated dross. This point also needs no further explanation from us. We hope that scholars and translators at home and abroad will provide criticism and suggestions to help us improve this series.
