Difference between polital science and economics...please provide to me the details

Hi Friend..........

Political Science is all about the distribution of authority in society. Politics can involve both state and non-state actors ex, churches, clubs, organisations and, in these groups, people use politics as the means to make social decisions. These social decision often reflect values, relations, or means people have available to them.

Economics, on the other side, is the social study of the allocation of scarce resources, going from buying a good in a supermarket in a way that our happiness level is going to be at its top (i.e. buying ice cream instead of chocolates, because we want ice cream more), to creating policies to increase the amount of food delivered to poor communities (this is done by the government)

In sum, both deal with the distribution of a system in society, but politics centres on authority between parts of it whereas economics deals with resource. Often, the two can overlap, especially where the allocation of resources depends on the relations of individuals or vice-versa

As I am guessing here Economics means you are querying for Political Economics.....
Political science is the study of politics using scientific methods. It deals mainly with the description & analysis of political and especially the governmental institutions and processes....

While Political economy, in the modern sense, refers to the application of economic methods, especially rational choice theory, to non-economic problems, such as politics.

In sum, both deal with the distribution of a system in society, but Political Science centres on authority between parts of it whereas economics deals with resources.
