Thank you professor for making this available to everyone online! I am currently taking an intro class on political theory and this video helps me to understand the field of study.
Political science tells you what’s happening and why (I think that predicting politics is a crapshoot frankly.) political theory gives you the information you need to know how to govern. Anyone who is interested in getting into politics- in any sense (becoming a legislator, a lawyer, a judge, an activist, or even just a wise civil participant) should get well-versed in political theory. Also, who cares about whether you can understand what’s happening politically if, when things are bad, you are unable to think of a remedy since political science limits itself to neutrality rather than taking up a plan to envision the world you want to see? Obviously, knowing the facts of politics is important, and I’m not rejecting the idea that we should look at empirical information or be informed on what’s going on in the world. however, I think it’s simply foolish to look at a field that is as human as politics like it’s a cell or an atom-out that it shouldn’t be infected by human interpretation or opinion. Our feelings and opinions are the the basis of politics, and if you teach kids political science like its biology, they won’t have any ability to think for themselves.
+tochi henry Not sure--I've never taught the intro political science course. This is an intro to political theory course. Try searching. I'm sure such courses are out there.
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
