Features: Ai Siqi was a renowned modern Marxist philosopher and educator in China. As Mao Zedong put it, he was a "loyal soldier on the theoretical front of the Party." His entire life was dedicated to promoting, disseminating, researching, and developing Marxist philosophy. From serving as a philosophy instructor at Yan'an Anti-Japanese Military Academy, the Marxism-Leninism Institute, and the North Shaanxi Public College to later holding positions such as Vice Dean of the Central Party School, Vice President of the Chinese Philosophy Society, and Academician of the Philosophy and Social Sciences Department of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ai Siqi authored a vast body of works.
The first eight volumes of The Complete Works of Ai Siqi were collected and compiled by the "Editorial Committee of The Complete Works of Ai Siqi." They include Ai Siqi's life's writings, encompassing most of his published and publicly available books, articles, translations, special essays, short essays,, and literary works, including the highly influential popular philosophy book The Philosophy of the Masses and the college-level textbook Dialectical Materialism and Historical Materialism. Additionally, a significant portion of the works consists of unpublished and unpublished lecture notes, explanations, teaching reports, lecture outlines, and manuscripts, totaling 5.6 million words. Nearly 2 million of these words are previously unpublished, offering readers a glimpse into how Ai Siqi devoted his life to the Party's philosophical cause and the nation's educational endeavors, presenting a rich and multifaceted image of the philosopher.
