PREFACE
It gives us immense
pleasure to present this text book “
Defining Political Science: Theory and
Analysis” which is a modest attempt for the
benefit of the students Law and
Political Science(Pass and Honours). The need for compact and standard text
book in the light of revised syllabus has been felt both by the teachers and
students. It is beyond doubt that this text book will be immensely helpful to
the students and to the teaching community.
It will definitely be useful to both undergraduate and post graduate
students of political science. This text
book provides an in-depth study of the
concepts, provides a theoretical interpretation of political reality and covers different ideologies in detail. It examines
and analyses key concepts like the State, the Sovereignty, Law, Liberty, Equality, Property, Rights,
Justice, Rule of Law, Political
obligation, Power, authority, legitimacy, Democracy, Gandhism and Marxism and
so on. This text book is theoretically sophisticated and analytically rich. We
hope this book will create a new hope, new spirit and new idea amongst the
students fraternity and encourage them
to move ahead with a new interest in this discipline. This book will be
much required for students in India who find it difficult to negotiate with
political theory, the kernel of Political Science. This text book will also be
highly useful for the candidates appearing for civil services and other
competitive examinations. We have also given a reference list of books for
further deeper study of any concept. After all knowledge has no boundaries and
more you explore it, more enrichment of mind takes place. Please bear in mind a
word of ancient wisdom – there is no shortcut to success. This book is just a
small step towards success and we are sure that reading this book will enthuse
you to study Political Science further. The comments, suggestions and
criticisms are welcome for improving the contents in the next editions. It is
hoped that this work would cater the demand of the students. We wish you all the best.
