Contribution of Political Science to Sociology!
Sociology is the mother of all social sciences. It is closely related to other social sciences. Sociology is the science of society i.e. social relations. It deals with the origin, evolution, organisation, purpose, ends and nature of the society. Because society is the oldest organisation of human beings, Sociology is also the oldest social science. In the words of Ward, “Sociology is the science of society or of social phenomena.”
Political Science, on the other hand, deals with the study of human political behaviour in society. Since political and social behaviour of man cannot be separated, there is a close relation between Political Science and Sociology According to Prof. Catlin, “Political Science and Sociology are inseparable and in fact these are two sides of the same picture.”
