TITLE: FUNDAMENTALS OF RESEARCH IN THE SUBJECT AREA OF POLITICAL SCIENCE: AN OVERVIEW

This field encompasses the examination of politics at local, state, and national levels, as well as international relations, political theory, and political history, among other areas of human activity related to politics and political behavior. Consequently, political science can be characterized as a multifaceted and ever-evolving domain that investigates the political actions of individuals and groups, the institutions through which societies govern themselves, and the foundational values that shape political ideologies and systems. Research undertaken by political scientists inevitably tackles the numerous inquiries that emerge within this expansive area of social science.
