Features: This book explores the concept of "harmonious unity," a shared primal thought of humanity, from the perspective of traditional culture. Observing and researching the harmonious thought of the pre-Qin period through a legal lens holds significant meaning. From the perspective of academic research, the study of building a harmonious society has become a major focus in contemporary Chinese academia. However, from the standpoint of socialist legal construction and traditional Chinese civilization, there are few monographs dedicated to the harmonious thought of the pre-Qin period. A detailed examination of the origins and evolution of harmonious thought during the pre-Qin era will help us accurately grasp the essence of traditional culture and guide the construction of a harmonious society. The theme of this book is to study the harmonious thought of the pre-Qin period from a legal perspective. In terms of structure, it takes harmonious thought as the main thread, analyzes various aspects of the law, and conducts multi-faceted analysis of the legal culture and harmonious thought of the pre-Qin period. While focusing on the legal history of harmonious thought and meticulously tracing its cultural origins, the author primarily emphasizes the spiritual direction and value connotations of harmonious thought in the legal culture of the pre-Qin period. Through an exploration of pre-Qin law and harmonious thought, the author attempts to uncover the excellent cultural connotations and contemporary value embedded within them, providing theoretical support for the current construction of a socialist harmonious society.
