Summary/Abstract: The problems of the directions of research development and theory-based didactics of international relations are rarely addressed in the debate on the state and prospects of this field of knowledge. The article analyses the English and American discourse on the methods of learning and teaching international relations and focuses on the new directions in the application of knowledge in this field. Didactics is very important for a number of reasons. It allows us to determine the key issues and content in a given discipline of science, organises the research material, provides inspirations and tests theories, promotes knowledge and creates the image of research and researchers. It is a puzzling fact that the interest in political science in Poland has not brought about the development of the discourse concerning didactics, its methods and techniques. Negligence in the scientific-didactic sphere is a problem concerning the very core of scientific practice (of which didactics is a part), not to mention negligence concerning the cooperation of this science with other fields of knowledge and practice. This text presents the development of the theory, didactics, teaching, based also on the author’s own experience.
