  • Why Government and Politics, arent they the
    same thing?
  • What are the purposes (World Today) and methods
    of comparison and classification and how are they
    used?
  • Ways to analyze government and politics (ST chart
    and component methods)
  • Normative and empirical analysis(see Wood 13
    AR5i p 2)
  • What concepts like state, nation, regime,
    government, etc, etc. (Bold words in Wood and
    scroll through AR5i after p 5) will we need to
    use?
  • Process and policy (what is politics, purpose of
    government what are political science and
    comparative politics common policy challenges)
  • What are the Big Challenges all political systems
    are facing and how? Globalization (economics
    too) and Democratization

  • Need to study among other things
  • Environment (political, cultural, geographical,
    demographic, economic issues or problems) causing
    need for public policies
  • Processes of making policies and putting them
    into effect.
  • Actors involved in making and implementing policy
  • Sources and methods of information used to make
    policy
  • Environment in which policies are made
  • Methods and biases in policy-maker selection
  • Conflict and cooperation methods, prevalence,
    role, actors
  • Systems structures influencing influenced by
    policy-making
  • Therefore First - we will need to understand
    the basics of political science. Then we will use
    the College Boards Substantive Topic framework
    to analyze and compare systems

Politics is the relationships between individuals
and groups, processes, actions and institutions
that make collective decisions. Usually these
are focused on answering the questions 1) Who
gets what (of scarce resources), when, where and
how? (another way of asking this is what should
govt do and how should it do it?) 2) Who gets to
decide and how does who get decided?
But politics are also the effects of the answers
to these questions Conflict arises over the
answers to the above two questions and politics
are also the management of these different, and
resultant conflicts
Therefore, if the above is an acceptable answer
to what is politics, then what conclusions can we
draw about what needs to be studied in order to
understand politics so that we can do comparative
politics?
