Features: Over a century of development in Chinese social sciences has provided a strong spiritual impetus for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and has established a solid spiritual pillar. During this century, Chinese social sciences have undergone three large-scale reassessments of preceding academic, intellectual, and cultural traditions. Each reassessment has not only brought about a significant leap forward in social sciences but also a widespread ideological liberation and a broad improvement in the quality of the populace. In fact, this reassessment process continues to this day. This has shaped the character of Chinese social sciences—combining progressiveness, diversity, and adaptability. Over the past century, each reassessment has constructed a new knowledge system, new categories, concepts, discourses, and even paradigm systems for China, providing new theoretical foundations and action plans for China's survival and rescue, the transformation of Chinese civilization, the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and the development of China's revolution and modernization. Chinese social sciences have thus moved into the society and among the people, permeating people's entire spiritual and material lives and penetrating into the comprehensive transformation of social systems.
