A complete training of a political school should include three aspects: intrinsic theory, knowledge theory and methodology. The political methodology discussion mainly focuses on the two. This course is a compulsory course for the international relations group and political theory group in the political department. Its importance can be seen in general. Students can learn from these three points. After the training period, we can have a deep understanding of the evolution of political science, especially from the classical proof school to the post-production school, and even the future prospects of political science. This course also lays a good foundation for students to apply for domestic research institutes and even go abroad to further their studies.
