What is the relationship between history and political science?

Answer 1

Up until the early 20th century there was no separate discipline called political science. The study of politics to that time focussed either on historiographic depictions of particular political events/people, or on philosophical analyses of idealized political systems (often with moral or ethical overtones, since the aim of political theory is to understand and improve political systems). Political science as an academic discipline grew out of a desire to do practical research on the workings of actual governments (public policy, relationships between nations and states, relations between governments and their people, and the like). There are overlaps still between history and political science, but they have different goals. History concerns itself with the accurate depiction of people and events, often in very idiosyncratic terms. Historical analysis can be very sophisticated, but it is usually limited in scope to the events it is discussing. Political science (as a science) is more interested in general principles. Political scientists want to understand particular events in order to understand how events of that kind work in general, so that they can anticipate or change future events.

Answer 2

history included the making of the earth. which can include religions beliefs and things like that. political science also includes the making of the earth, but in a more scientific way, like the big bang and panspermia.
