Political Science
Political Science concerns itself with the study of governments and governing procedures; what they are, how they change and what one thinks they should be-this includes international organizations, national states and sub-units of nations. While political science is concerned with understanding legislative, executive and judicial bodies that are formally part of government, it is also concerned with the political activities and influence of many other related groupings. It considers, for example, political parties, voting behavior and interest groups, as well as relevant activities of other organizations and individuals. The entire process by which public policy is formulated and executed (“who gets what, when, where and how”) constitutes the field of political science.
