Cours Introduction to Political Science

Lectures


This introductory political science course approaches basic concepts and the most common central objects and approaches. It enables students to acquire concepts and tools that provide them with the conditions for understanding a political situation, whether it is local, regional or global in scale.

The course presents both the discipline of political science and its evolution over time from a few major figures of the discipline from yesterday to today. It also deals with the different historical and contemporary approaches that mark the reflection of the discipline. Finally, he is interested in objects studied as such: the state, war, nationalism, development, political regimes, institutions in modern democracies...

This course aims to familiarize the public with the basic concepts and main approaches to political science. One of the overriding pedagogical objectives is the acquisition of language and methodology that can stimulate critical thinking with regard to contemporary political issues and address key reference authors of political thought. It is complemented by a presentation of the most important approaches to contemporary political science. More in-depth reflections on this subject will allow us to illustrate the links between society, facts and political choices on the basis of specific themes. This course also aims to provide an overview of the main sub-disciplines of political science, particularly electoral studies, Swiss politics, comparative politics, public policy analysis, international relations and normative political theory.
