与物质文明相对应,精神文明作为一种社会历史现象,是由多种要素整合而成的,是社会的有机组成部分。它的发展既受社会历史发展的一般规律的制约,又有其自身的特殊规律。正是认识到这一问题,近年来,周向军等同志致力于精神文明发展规律的研究并出版了《精神文明发展规律论》一书, Corresponding to the material civilization, spiritual civilization, as a social and historical phenomenon, is a combination of various elements and an integral part of society. Its development is not only restricted by the general laws governing the development of society and history, but also has its own special laws. It is in recognition of this problem that in recent years, Comrade Zhou Xiangjun and others devoted themselves to the study of the law of the development of spiritual civilization and published the book “On the Law of the Development of Spiritual Civilizations”
