About the programme
How do political systems work, and what all counts as political? What is power, how are we governed, and how does one rise up in resistance? Why do states still wage wars, and what are the possibilities of the international community? Would you like answers to burning political questions that affect all of humankind? In that case, the master's studies in political science at the University of Lapland are for you.
