Features: "New Consciousness of Development Thought" is a collection of partial achievements in the study of Scientific Development Concept by theoretical workers in Shanghai. Among them, 12 articles comprehensively study the Scientific Development Concept, 9 from a political perspective, 11 from an economic perspective, 5 from cultural and social perspectives, 4 from the perspective of national defense construction, and 8 from the perspective of Shanghai's practice. Guided by Deng Xiaoping Theory and the Important Thought of Three Represents, the book conscientiously implements the spirit of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Plenary Sessions of the 16th Central Committee, upholding the fine tradition of linking theory with practice. It combines major theoretical and practical issues of China's and Shanghai's reform, opening up, and modernization with in-depth research from multiple angles on the historical status, theoretical significance, and guiding role of the Scientific Development Concept. It also delves into the intrinsic connections and relationships between the Scientific Development Concept and the series of major strategic ideas proposed by the Party Central Committee since the 16th National Congress. Furthermore, it examines major issues in implementing the Scientific Development Concept and building a harmonious socialist society, covering aspects such as economic construction, political construction, cultural construction, social construction, and Party building under socialism with Chinese characteristics. The book features clear themes, rigorous logic, fluent language, and a style, demonstrating strong theoretical and practical value. It reflects the recent achievements of Shanghai's theoretical workers in the study of the Scientific Development Concept and will play a positive role in fully implementing the Scientific Development Concept, advancing the construction of a harmonious socialist society, and achieving the "Four Firsts" requirements proposed by Comrade Hu Jintao for Shanghai.
