What is Political Science?

At the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University, we are often asked, “What is political science?” For the definitive answer, we turned to-who else?-political science professors who study, interpret, and teach the art of governing.
“Political Science is the study of politics and government using the tools of social science,” said Schar School professor Jennifer Victor. “Political scientists use the same scientific method-that is, question, theory, hypothesis, gather data, test, conclude-that natural scientists use. But instead of studying cells, or plants, or forces of nature, political scientists study people and the institutions they create to try to solve social problems, or not solve them, as the case may be.”

What Feynman would call pseudoscience

[@rustynails68]

I would like to learn about political science. I would like to know the Trump magic, the propaganda process, the Machiavelli, the failure of Carter, the art of deception, the best time to kill people to consolidate power. Unfortunately, I suspect that the academic version is basically, white is bad, nkay.

POLITICS A SCIENCE? Musical chairs define a situation in which people frequently exchange jobs and positions. Because of the politics in America today, political concepts have lost or shifted away from their original identities; we are looking mainly at three: the Liberals, the Democrats and the Conservatives. Liberal is associated with freedom when the party bearing that name has been trying by all means, legal or not, to gain more and more control. The Democrats do not review most of their policies eventhough they are loosing more and more support from US Citizens. The Conservatives, because of toxic Philosophies promoted by the left and as they are claiming, for many, to be under God, although mentioned as Universal Values, and backing up creativity and freedom are more and more subjected to major changes along with the Republicans: among which Rinos have been casting doubts about this appellation as well

Politics in the real life practice, and discipline of political science is completely two different things. I mean they are not completely different in theory. But when comes to real life practice, it's more than what we study in theory. Besides, nowadays in most cases if not all , its just a power dynamic and profit building business. So, dont be upset, cause politicians today, they are not practicing political science, they are just driving their own personal agendas. Which we should try to change for the betterment of the future

To call political science a science is a complete insult to the scientific community

[@gmanthegrey]

Science knows no bounds and to say science can't be applied to politics is an insult to science you ingrate.

[@esotericanarchist736]

@@gmanthegrey Listen Clown did I say that science cannot be applied to politics? NO I DIDN'T SAY THAT! It can be applied but it doesn't mean that politics is a science it only means that science is being used to serve unscientific garbage that we call politics but politics in itself IS NOT A SCIENCE If that was the case scientists would add all the arbitrary man-made laws that are in politics all together with the laws of physics and we all f****** know that such arbitrary laws do not exist in the laws of physics why is that? Because politics is bullsh** and it has NOTHING to do with science Science can even be applied to religion But religion in itself is not science that's why nobody goes around calling it Religion science You can apply science to almost anything but it doesn't mean that the thing in itself is a science Science was used and applied to serve Hitler and his garbage unscientific politics just because science was used and applied to serve his garbage politics it doesn't mean that his garbage politics had anything to do with science because it doesn't Would you not agree that it would be an insult to the scientific community to go around using the term Nazi science? It will be an insult right? Well guess what it is also an insult to the scientific community to go around using the term political science because politics and science are 100% opposed to each other and have absolutely nothing to do with each other that's why you don't see no scientists on Earth adding politics in the scientific community When you go study the laws of physics do you ever hear the natural law of Taxation? NO! When you study the laws of physics do you ever hear the natural law of don't don't steal? NO! I can go on and on and on You're the dumb ingrate that most likely have your garbage political views and you're trying to justify it with science listen buddy science and politics are totally different don't f****** mix the two I'm willing to bet that's the only reason why you responded because it is more likely that you might be a dumb republican or democrat or socialist or communist or capitalist moron that's trying to mix something beautiful and truthful like science to something that's garbage purely base on Fairy Tail called politics Don't mix the most dangerous superstition which is politics with science because they are not the same
