About Political Science

Principles of Political Science course textbook,basic book theory for beginners

This app is designed to introduce students to several areas of political science such as international relations, comparative politics, political philosophy, and research methods. Important theories and models in politics will be introduced as well as how the study of political science is conducted. Students will typically be asked to write a literature review on a political topic of their choice and offer suggestions on how future research can be conducted. This course addresses cultural diversity by providing students with an introduction to different philosophies of government and how the various political systems of the world can be governed. This course is ideal for anyone interested in political science.

political science, the systematic study of governance by the application of empirical and generally scientific methods of analysis. As traditionally defined and studied, political science examines the state and its organs and institutions. The contemporary discipline, however, is significantly broader than this, encompassing studies of all the societal, cultural, and psychological factors that mutually influence the operation of government and the body politics.

Although political science borrows heavily from the other social sciences, it is distinguished from them by its focus on power—defined as the ability of one political actor to get another actor to do what it wants—at the international, national, and local levels. Political science is generally used in the singular, but in French and Spanish the plural (sciences politiques and ciencias politicas, respectively) is used, perhaps a reflection of the discipline's eclectic nature. Although political science overlaps considerable with political philosophy, the two fields are distinct. Political philosophy is concerned primarily with political ideas and values, such as rights, justice, freedom, and political obligations (whether people should or should not obey political authority); it is normative in its approach (i.e., it is concerned with what ought to be rather than with what is) and rationalistic in its method. In contrast, political science studies institutions and behaviour, favors the descriptive over the normative, and develops theories or draws conclusions based on empirical observations, which are expressed in quantitative terms where possible.

Although political science, like all modern sciences, involves empirical investigation, it generally does not produce precise measurements and predictions. This has led some scholars to question whether the discipline can be accurately described as a science. However, if the term science applies to any body of systematically organized knowledge based on facts ascertained by empirical methods and described by as much measurement as the material allows, then political science is a science, like the other social disciplines. In the 1960s the American historian of science Thomas S. Kuhn argued that political science was “pre-paradigmatic,” not yet having developed basic research paradigms, such as the periodic table that defines chemistry.
