Matters needing attention in using induction:

1, when summing up the general regularity of historical development by induction, we should pay attention to the colorful and diverse characteristics of historical events. We must pay attention to its particularity and adhere to the dialectics and epistemology of the unity of individuality and individuality. For example, when analyzing the causes of the Renaissance, we should not only consider economic and political aspects, but also consider talent factors and cultural factors.

2. In a certain range, some summarized experiences have played the role of taking history as a mirror in a certain historical period, and the lessons cannot be mechanically applied to events under different historical conditions. For example, we come to the conclusion that the existence of small-scale peasant economy is not conducive to the development of industrialization, while China has a large population and a small per capita area, and the special national conditions require us not to directly apply the experience of western countries to solve the problem.
