Features: This book first argues in a general sense the guiding significance of Deng Xiaoping's political theory for contemporary Chinese political science, elaborating on the basic framework and research methods of Deng Xiaoping's political theory. Subsequently, it explores the contributions and guiding value of Deng Xiaoping's theory for various branches of contemporary Chinese political science, addressing major issues such as what socialism is and how to transform government functions and reform the administrative system. On this basis, it further elaborates on the relationship between Deng Xiaoping's theory and interdisciplinary research in political science. Finally, it analyzes the relationship between Deng Xiaoping's theory and the development trend of Marxist political science as a discipline, concluding that only under the guidance of Deng Xiaoping's theory, with a focus on national conditions and a pragmatic approach, can the discipline of Marxist political science with Chinese characteristics be developed and improved.
