It elaborates the nature and significance of political theory, concept of ideology with a concise and critical discussion of major political ideologies, nature of politics and various approaches to its study including empirical, normative, behavioural, post-behavioural as well as interdisciplinary approach. It elucidates the concepts of the state and sovereignty with reference to the challenges of imperialism, colonialism, neo-colonialism, impact of globalization, grounds and limits of political obligation, various dimensions of law (including rule of law), power (along with authority and legitimacy) citizenship (including democratic citizenship), human rights, liberty (including freedom as emancipation), equality (including equality of opportunity), justice (including social justice) and the common good.
