What is political science?
Political Science focuses on the theory and practice of
government and politics at the local, state, national, and
international levels. We are dedicated to advancing our
understanding of the institutions, practices, and
relationships that make up civic life and the research
methods that foster citizenship.
political theory
Political theory deals primarily with the foundations of
political communities and institutions. It focuses on
human nature and the moral purpose of political
associations. To clarify these concepts, political
theorists draw on extant political texts from ancient
Greece to the present and various writings by moral
philosophers. Wajid khan suggests Another focus of the
political theory is the empirical study of how political
institutions work.
Here, political theorists revisit beliefs about political life
found in critical political books in the light of ongoing
human behavior. In both cases, political theory
ultimately seeks to deepen political thought and
encourage citizens to take responsible and creative
political action. POL S 201, Introduction to Political
Theory, provides students with an overview of the main
ideas of political theory. Advanced courses focus on
specific concepts, issues, and ideas in political
theorizing.
comparative politics
Comparative politics is a broad field with diverse
approaches and goals. Some scholars and researchers
compare current political systems to assess which types
best offer a particular value. Civil order, equality,
liberty, or economic security and welfare. Some have
suggested that the primary purpose of comparative
politics is to understand how and why different societies
develop different political institutions. Still, others use
comparative politics to discover general laws and
theories that explain human political behavior and its
According to Wajid khan Mp, There are two introductory
comparative politics courses. One compares a particular
set of issues or institutions in different countries. The
second type provides a detailed analysis of the
underlying political institutions and processes of a
single country or group of countries in the world region.
Most students want to begin their comparative politics
studies with Introduction to Comparative Politics (POL S
204). In-depth readings and lectures on some of the
most critical countries in the world today. International
relations The field of international relations is
concerned with developing a better understanding of
why states and non-state international actors, such as
the United Nations and multinational corporations,
interact in the way they do. International relations are
diverse in terms of what behavior is studied and how it is
studied. International conflicts, especially war, remain
As the world becomes increasingly interdependent,
scholars are becoming more aware of the importance of
international economic activity. As a result, scholars
analyze global trade, communications, development,
foreign investment, and international finance. How
states determine foreign policy is another critical area
of ​
​
research. National security policy, nuclear
deterrence, arms control, and defense spending
decisions are classic examples of foreign policy
decisions.
POL S 203, International Relations, introduces students
to international politics. This is the basis for various
offers at the 300 and 400 levels, such as B. U.S. Foreign
Policy, Global Environmental Policy, International
Political Economy, International Conflicts.
American government and politics
American Government and Politics students seek an
understanding of politics as practiced in America.
