Features: This book employs the theoretical methodology of Marxism's "civil society," starting from the binary separation of "state-society," with the relationship between democracy and the rule of law as the main thread. It examines the dual structure and inherent contradictions of modern Western political civilization from three levels: political institutions, political consciousness, and political behavior.
