申请季，写给还想申请海外博士的同学们 5/n
5/n. 心态 申请季很长，从开始准备材料到出结果，会有至少大半年的时间，在此期间你可能会焦虑，会失落，会踌躇满志，也会紧张得睡不着，又或在充满希望和感到绝望之间反复横跳。当然如果你真的决意要走学术这条道路，你的学术生涯会比申请季长数十倍，…
申请季，写给还想申请海外博士的同学们 4/n
4/n. 研究方法 见仁见智。有的老师对量化方法很重视，也有人会觉得对人性的悟性和认知更为重要。现在在申请中说擅长因果推断、机器学习、实验设计（尤其中国学生中）太普遍了，一个方法再好，看了几十遍相似的说法也会审美疲劳，更不用说有了AI之后绝…

3/n. 助研(RA)是越多越好吗？ 我可以给你一个最明确，最直接，最不绕弯子的回答：不是。 不知道从什么时候起，找老师做RA似乎成了申请材料中的标配。经常看到申请人把自己做过许多老师RA的经历作为自己CV的高光部分展示出来。有人可能觉得做…

教学经历
Power is a crucial yet highly elusive element in social relations. The accumulation, application, and transference of power are associated with numerous dilemmas and challenges that affect decision making in political, business, and social organizations. Institutions often arise as instruments to channel and regularize the use of power but their own operation is also profoundly influenced by power struggles. This course presents a systematic introduction to social science research on key aspects of power politics. We will examine how power struggles are manifested and resolved in various kinds of political processes and how power dynamics both shape and are being shaped by the organizational and institutional characteristics of the larger polity. Specific topics that will be discussed include political leadership, succession, civil--military relations, bureaucratic control, and democratization. The readings will consist of a range of theoretical and empirical works from multiple social science disciplines. We will pay special attention to comparing how power politics plays out across distinct geographic regions, political contexts, and historical epochs.
Why are some nations able to grow and prosper while others mired in conflicts and poverty? What are the political factors that shape countries' success in growing their economies? How does economic and technological progress affect a regime's ability to stay in power and the prospects and directions of political changes? This course addresses these questions by introducing students to major ideas and findings from both classical and cutting-edge scholarship on political economy of development.
