I gave a brief overview of what the lecturer needs to be in the summary or what to talk about.So you can elaborate more on it according to political science context not just random! Use what you understand from the pdf and add on to it. But don’t mention the pdf as reference in the summary.
The summary is not about the pdf! But you can add things from it to the summary!. Political science context.
