Deepening community law popularization education and strengthening community democratic rule of law are important components of the "Six Entrances Law Popularization Campaign." In the national "Six Entrances Law Popularization Campaign," it is explicitly stated that it is necessary to summarize the experience of "Law in the Community" and explore new approaches for community law popularization education. It is required to organize targeted, public welfare law lectures and resident law forums, combining the hot and difficult issues of each period and typical cases happening in residents' daily lives, to provide convenient and quick legal services for residents.
Strengthening the legal knowledge learning of community residents and improving their legal literacy are the responsibilities of all law popularization educators and also the obligations of every community resident. This textbook adheres to the principles of being close to reality, close to the masses, and close to daily life. It adopts a question-and-answer format, comprehensively and deeply explaining the legal issues frequently encountered in the daily lives of community residents in ten aspects: basic rights and obligations of citizens, marriage and family, protection of minors, real estate transactions, housing rentals, property management, traffic safety, labor employment and social security, civil litigation, and petition handling. It effectively translates legal theories into practical knowledge for residents, making it easy to understand and highly suitable for community residents to study and use. It is an excellent teaching material for the "Law in the Community" campaign.
