Features: This book focuses on exploring the early history of Tsinghua University's School of Political Science, one of the main academic institutions in later years. It reveals the origins and development of modern Chinese political science by examining specific historical events in the field. Using archival documents, newspapers, writings by contemporaries, diaries, and recollections of key figures, the book arranges and cross-references the materials without selecting or discarding them based on external concepts or later biases. It meticulously organizes historical facts to seek the fundamental truth of the matter. While the academic community generally pursues and aligns with Western political science's new theories, this work provides concrete and detailed evidence for reviewing the local academic experience and understanding the historical layers embedded in today's concepts and behaviors.
