In today’s tumultuous era of change, the global landscape is undergoing unprecedented profound adjustments, and China is in the midst of a wide-ranging and profound transformation process. Philosophy, especially Marxist philosophy as the “essence of the spirit of the times”, plays a key role in leading and understanding this great change. Peng Guohua’s book “How We See This Era: Decoding China’s Road and Modernity” (published by Hunan People’s Publishing House) is a profound insight and positive response to the issues of this era.
The book has a rigorous structure and is divided into four chapters: the chapter of “looking at the general trend” focuses on the profound changes in the global governance pattern, and deeply analyzes how the CPC can take a long-term perspective, take into account the overall situation at home and abroad, balance current and long-term development, and find the best path between independence and win-win cooperation; The chapter on “Planning for Major Events” focuses on the group of party members and leading cadres, exploring how they can use strategic and dialectical thinking to enhance their ability to plan for the overall situation and the future, and become a “key minority” in promoting change; The chapter on “Hongda De” focuses on the core socialist values and explores how to gather social consensus to form a broad “greatest common denominator” that promotes the deepening of reform and the expansion of China’s path; The chapter on “Mingdao” starts from the optimization of academic ecology and the cultivation of excellent academic atmosphere, discussing how to build a philosophical and social science system with Chinese characteristics, and providing solid theoretical support for the sustained progress of China’s path.
The book is based on Marxist dialectical materialism as its theoretical foundation, with clear problem orientation, clear logic, profound and easy to understand discourse, and approachable language. It provides readers with a clear philosophical perspective to examine and understand the path of China’s road expansion, and has profound enlightening significance.
