Political science is the systematic study of power at local, national, and global levels. This diverse academic discipline focuses on a wide range of issues and concepts, such as conflict, justice, rights, distribution of power, voter choice, political campaigns, political leadership, social movements, how political institutions function, decision-making within governmental and non-governmental organizations, and ways to understand and approach major challenges such as racial injustice, gender violence, war and conflict, poverty and inequality, the climate crisis, ideological conflicts (religious, ideological, nationalist, etc.), democratization, and globalization.
