This book traces the development of political science from ancient influences such as Plato and Aristotle to modern political shapers such as Robert A. Dahl. It covers changes to the field in both thought and practice due to the rise and fall of political regimes, world wars, colonialism, and social media. The book also includes thorough examinations of international relations, systems of government, constitutions, domestic policy, public opinion, and administration. The book ends with brief biographies of important people in the field of political science that specifies their various contributions.

AbstractThis article addresses Andrew Rehfeld's attempt to ensure a place for
political theory within political science, which he does partly by
showing how political theory fits into a defensible definition of
political science and partly by excluding much political theory from
the discipline in order to safeguard the rest. His account of what
the discipline should comprehend is overly narrow, however, and does
not serve the interests of the sorts of political theory he strongly
believes are worth doing. I argue instead that political science
must be defined by its subject matter alone, and that political
theory's contribution to this subject matter must be defended.

In President Obama's words, the Democratic Party experienced a "shellacking" in the 2010 elections. In particular, the net loss of 63 House seats was the biggest midterm loss suffered by a party since 1938—the largest in the lifetimes of approximately 93% of the American population.

It has been found that in the 21st century, political parties play an important role in the political processes of society, forming political power in a representative democracy. Qualitative development of political parties is possible with proper legal support, which allows ruling and opposition political parties to participate in electoral processes on a democratic basis. It is determined that crucial for a proper understanding of the basic principles of political party participation in electoral processes is that they should in no way be seen as a means of imposing excessive restrictions on political parties respecting the right of citizens to hold political office, personally or as political party representatives. It is substantiated that political parties perform an important representative function during their activity. The main task of political parties is to participate in the formation of the political will of the people through the electoral process and the implementation of a certain political course. It is proposed to consider political parties as organizations that have united certain individuals, one of whose goals is to participate in the management of public affairs through the nomination of candidates in free and democratic elections. It was found that in countries where national law does not require the registration of political parties, a political party is still subject to certain requirements for their participation in the electoral process. There is a tendency towards a more liberal approach to the requirements of the functioning of political parties of power to developed classical European democracies. At the same time, the democracies of Central and Eastern Europe are characterized by greater bureaucratization and formalized requirements for state registration and participation of political parties in the electoral process.
