In this work, the author systematically examines the evolution of ancient Chinese society through the Confucian framework of "universal harmony," "moderate prosperity," and "social disorder." By tracing dynastic cycles, reform movements, and shifts in moral consciousness, he offers a powerful lens for understanding China's long tradition of social change.This book was first developed from the author's lecture notes for his course History of Chinese Social Development at Kwang Hua University in Shanghai. Blending classical Confucian thought with perspectives from modern social science, Lü constructs a distinctive "philosophy of history" that bridges China's past with the intellectual currents of his own time. Written in both classical and vernacular Chinese, the book reflects Lü's lifelong commitment to Confucian ideals and remains a landmark study for anyone interested in Chinese philosophy, history, and political thought.
