«La science politique» is the introductory essay on political science by Philippe Braud, published by PUF in paperback (128 pages, in French).
The book explains that political science was not born with Plato, Hobbes or Rousseau, but is a 20th-century discipline linked to the social sciences. Its object is «the political»: a social field of clash and aggregation of interests regulated by a power with legitimate coercion. The work reviews its domains, actors, issues and schools.
It belongs to the Que sais-je? collection (no. 909) in its 11th edition of 2014; the work originally appeared in 1961.
An introductory work suitable for those approaching political science for the first time and for students seeking a reference synthesis.
