Sur l’objet et la méthode des sciences politiques

The 1950 UNESCO volume explores the object, method, and theory of political science. It analyzes the discipline across regions and includes specialized studies. Eisenmann’s article defines political science as the study of « political facts, » categorized as rules/institutions and strict facts. He distinguishes between normative (doctrine of politics) and positive (history, law) sciences, arguing that law encompasses both.
