This book meets the challenges coming up before Political Science of the Twenty-first Century in the form of Globalisation, Global Governance, Feminism, Contemporary Terrorism, State Supremacy, Democracy, and Human Rights. In the light of the latest developments, it tries to explain, analyse and evaluate them to reformulate contemporary ‘political theory’. It first takes up substantive studies of Political Behaviouralism, Power, Influence, Authority and Legitimacy, Modernisation and Development, Political Ideologies and Political Cultures, and Feminine Political Theory. Along with Systems and Structural-Functional Approaches as theories-in-making, the book, then, looking into the proper relationship among Values, Theory and Methodology, strives to transform conventional “Political Science” into rechristened “Politicology.” To serve the global market, the author has discovered ‘applied’ aspects of the discipline in form of new professions of ‘Political Engineering’ and ‘Political Technologies’. The book, in this manner, undertakes the task of evolving an “Advanced Modern Political Theory.” Till the scholars are able to realise this goal, they are advised, in its place, to empirically make use of the devices of ‘Analysis’ and ‘Explanation’, and continue striving for it.

The book concentrates on the past and present, but its goal is to prepare the discipline for the critical future. It also attempts to seek some consensus on appropriate goals and values for man for leading a suitable life here and hereafter. An advanced political theory, as proposed in this book, opposes both status quo and unaccountable power lying with vested interests.

This book is likely to benefit teachers, scholars, researchers, and students of not only Political Science but also other Social Sciences.
