This introductory series explores the meaning, scope, principles, determinants, and analytical patterns of political behaviour within the scientific study of politics. Students will examine what drives individuals and groups to act politically — including psychological, social, cultural, and institutional factors — and how political scientists systematically study and interpret these behaviours. It establishes the conceptual and theoretical foundation for understanding why people engage with politics in the ways they do, setting the stage for deeper analysis in subsequent series.
This series offers an academic exploration of how behaviourism transformed political science into an evidence-based discipline. Students will trace the origins of the behaviourist movement, examine its core principles and key determinants, and assess its lasting impact on how political scientists study human behaviour. By shifting focus from institutions to observable actions and patterns, behaviourism reshaped political inquiry — and this series unpacks that intellectual revolution and its continued relevance in contemporary political analysis.
