Autumn
Equinox
好的问题大抵常经由沉浸式思考出现，文章千古事，对“大部头们”的严肃阅读能提供长久的精神养料，聚众读书和深入讨论往往能从他者的知识背景中获得意想不到的隐藏惊喜。
入秋，正适合读书。
我们整理了18本关于比较政治发展的书目，预备自下周始（2024.9.26），每周四上午对一本书的问题和论证逻辑进行讨论。为使讨论更加集中和高效，在开始之前我们希望读者们能够充分阅读、提出问题，并形成简短的要点文字稿（不拘形式）。读书会将向所有有兴趣读书的朋友开放，非常期待能听到其他学科背景的朋友们的声音，有兴趣者可以联系公众号后台或发送邮件至CDS公邮（siscds@ruc.edu.cn）。
