INTRODUCTION

Masters in Political Sciences analyze the fundamental problems in human society, such as world peace, economic crisis, globalization, international trade, and more.

Politics influences every aspect of our lives and contributes to the wellbeing of a nation, including education, employment, healthcare, and housing. Political Science is a discipline that scrutinizes politics in national and international arenas. One of its core tasks is a consideration of the various ways that political systems react to social problems, such as unemployment and disenchantment with politics, and analysis of how concrete policies are formulated and implemented to counter these issues.

In addition to the aspect of political decision-making, we also look at political institutions (e.g. parliaments, voting systems, national and provincial assemblies) and those involved in the political process (e.g. political parties and citizens).The discipline in its current form is characterized by six core areas, all of which are covered in teaching and research at different universities Institute of Political Science; these are domestic politics and political sociology, analysis and comparison of political systems, international relations, political theory, politics and the economy, and methodologies.

The focal points of political science at various Universities include election and party research, with a particular focus on the phenomena of right-wing extremism, as well as the comparative research of democracy. In the field of international politics, the focus is on the theories of international relations as well as on political actors and organizations such as the European Union. The field of political theory deals mainly with contract theory and democracy theory, questions of political ethics, theories of action, and theories of rational choice. In the area of politics and the economy, subjects such as federalism, and regional and communal research are covered, as well as theoretical and empirical bases of social capital research. Those studying Political Science at the University of Mainz not only acquire specialist knowledge of the subject, but also receive excellent training in the related methods that can be employed, such as opinion poll research and statistics.
