Features: This book consists of 10 chapters, which can be divided into three parts. Chapter 1 is an introduction, while Chapters 2-8 systematically discuss Deng Xiaoping's theory of institutional construction. The last two chapters systematically explore Jiang Zemin's theory of political civilization. The second part, comprising 7 chapters, discusses the nature and types of institutions, the origin of institutions, the social functions of institutions, the mechanisms of institutions, the reform and innovation of institutions (systems), and the construction of institutions, among other topics. Each chapter covers two aspects: the fundamental perspectives of Marxist institutional theory and Deng Xiaoping's theoretical views on institutional construction. The third part, with two chapters, argues that Jiang Zemin's theory of political civilization is a continuation, development, and innovation of Deng Xiaoping's theory of institutional construction. The author believes that in Jiang Zemin's framework, Deng Xiaoping's theories of institutional construction and system reform have evolved into a new approach for building political civilization. This represents both a comprehensive inheritance of Deng Xiaoping's institutional construction ideas and a comprehensive innovation of them. By examining the construction of political civilization in relation to institutional construction, the author vividly highlights the crucial role of political civilization in the overall development of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
