Course overview
Political Theory I introduces students to the classical foundations of political thought, exploring key ideas from ancient Greece through the Enlightenment. Thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, and Montesquieu are studied in depth to understand how their philosophies addressed power, authority, rights, and the organisation of society. The course examines debates about justice, freedom, democracy, and the role of the state, providing learners with a historical grounding in the evolution of political ideas.
