Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book initiates Political Science as a necessary addition to university studies due to urgent need. The author explains how it stands separate from sociology and opens up new departments in American and German universities. It presents courses on Constitutional History, Law, Political Economy, Political Philosophy, Jurisprudence, Municipal Law, International Law, and History to provide students with systematic knowledge concerning the state, its constitution, functions, organs, relation to the individual, and other societies. The author emphasizes the value of investigating the historical and economic causes of constitutional differences and the importance of pursuing a position different from that of the older economists, such as focusing on observation and generalization from facts rather than relying solely on abstract theory. By examining the political and economic questions of the present, this book demonstrates that Political Science offers a standard of judgment and suggests directions for removing social ills, making it a crucial subject for the education of citizens in a rapidly democratizing world.
