Legal and Political Studies

Legal and Political Studies is an academic field that explores how laws, governments, and political systems function and influence society. It examines the creation, interpretation, and impact of laws, as well as the structure and workings of institutions like legislatures, courts, and administrative agencies. The field also investigates political behavior, policy-making, and the relationship between citizens and government. Essentially, it helps us understand how legal rules shape societal order and how political processes address collective issues, enabling informed participation and critical analysis of power, justice, and governance.
