Summary: "The study of government and constitution falls within the domain of political science as a discipline. This chapter introduces you to this field of study, as well as on the concept of politics and governance. Knowledge and understanding of the nature, scope, and relevance of political science is vital in your full grasp of the dynamics of politics and governance in the Philippines. Political science as a discipline. Etymologically speaking, political science was derived from the Greek word polis, which means city-state and the Latin word scire, which means science or to know. Literally, therefore, political science means the study of the city-state. History ascribes to Aristotle the beginnings of the formal study of state and government, when he published his treatise on political affairs entitled Politics (Zulueta, 2003)." --
