Abstract:Western political studies were introduced in China not in a flat but truly three dimensional way, which triggered dramatic changes in both social thoughts and academic world. During the process, there existed the “infiltration” of new knowledge and new learning and selective “avoidance” of some social classes and groups. That is what really happened when Western political studies were introduced in China: there was some distance between the spread and acceptance of new knowledge. In late Qing Dynasty, the “new knowledge” of Western political thoughts and political studies took root in the “old country” confronted with crises, and then sprouted and grew. The cultural clashes, conflicts, and contradictions eventually pushed China into a new age.
