In December, General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward the “four comprehensive” strategic thinking. It marks a completely new stage of history in accordance with the rule of the country. Against this background, this paper makes a deeper consideration and discussion on the problems, main tasks, basic requirements, methods and approaches in strengthening and improving rule of law education in higher vocational colleges.
