Item type: Item , Harmony(China Renmin University Press, 2015) Zhang, W.This book examines “harmony” as a central concept within the framework of China’s core socialist values. It traces the historical roots of harmony in traditional Chinese philosophy, particularly Confucianism, and its reinterpretation through Marxist dialectics. The authors argue that harmony represents both a cultural ideal and a political objective, serving as a guiding principle for social stability, governance, and modernization in China. By situating harmony within the CPC’s ideological system, the book highlights its role in fostering unity, balancing development with social equity, and promoting cultural confidence in the new era.Item type: Item , Microcredit for Poverty Alleviation: China’s Practice of Solving the Loan Problem for Poor People(The Contemporary World Press, 2021) Wu HuaMicrocredit for Poverty Alleviation: China’s Practice of Solving the Loan Problem for Poor People examines China’s innovative financial policies designed to help poor rural households gain access to credit. The book explains that obtaining affordable loans is a global challenge for poor populations because financial institutions often view low-income borrowers as high risk.

The book discusses policy design, financial product innovation, and the establishment of service systems that make loans accessible, affordable, and manageable for poor households. It also explores mechanisms ensuring that borrowers can use loans effectively for productive activities and repay them sustainably. Through case studies from provinces and counties in China, the book demonstrates how microcredit contributes to income growth, rural development, and long-term poverty reduction. Overall, the work presents China’s model of financial poverty alleviation and its role in promoting inclusive economic development.Item type: Item , High-Quality Development: Historical Logic, Theoretical Connotation and Guarantee System(China Renmin University Press, 2021) Liu, R.This book explores the concept of “high-quality development” as articulated in Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for the New Era.
