PSC 002 - (BH) Comparative Politics

Semester Hours: 3

Fall, Spring

Ever wonder why and how countries succeed and fail? Why have some countries maintained stability over the centuries while others remain in chaos? Does it matter if a government is a democracy or an authoritarian? What is the difference between a president and a prime minister, and what is a parliamentary system? Why don’t we have a multi-party system in the US and other countries do? Is there a crisis of democracy in the 21st century? In a virtual tour exploring some of the world’s most interesting cultures, governments, and political systems, we will answer these questions and many more.
