Features: The 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly identified the construction of socialist political civilization as one of the main goals of China's modernization, creating a new opportunity for the Chinese people to deeply reflect on the modernization of Chinese politics and political system reform. This book explores the following issues: interpreting the meaning of political civilization and attempting to introduce universal standards of political civilization; the moderate integration of universal standards of political civilization with socialist value pursuits; discussing the traditional foundations for establishing modern political civilization in China, analyzing what preparations the Chinese political tradition has made for the construction of modern political civilization and what obstacles it has presented, and exploring the relationship between the construction of modern political civilization and political modernization.
