Power shapes politics, but what shapes power in the 21st Century? Political scientists analyse political behaviour, ideas, events and institutions. At the heart of politics lies power.
This programme offers a unique opportunity for highly motivated students to prepare for a rewarding career in leading positions in the public and private sector. You will choose a specialisation within the programme that determines the courses in the first semester. You will graduate in this specialisation in the second semester.
The Master's programme in Political Science offers a choice between six specialisations:
* Comparative Politics
* Gender Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in Politics
* Conflict, Power and Politics
* International Political Economy
* International Relations
* Political Theory
For the fourth time in a row, this programme was rated number one in the Netherlands by the Keuzegids Masters 2016 (Guide to Master's programmes).
This specialisation introduces key issues and debates in gender and diversity studies within organisations and politics. It also allows you to engage with the latest developments in the field.
This specialisation introduces you not only to issues and ongoing debates in the field of gender and diversity studies in organisations and politics, but also offers the opportunity to familiarise yourself with the state of the art in the field and to acquire knowledge of different policy practices related to it and their gendered implications. It offers you the knowledge and skills needed to understand the moral reasons - social justice, fairness and anti-discrimination - and the business reasons - legitimacy and performance - for addressing gender equality, diversity and inclusion through, among others, gender mainstreaming strategies. You learn to apply academic theories to real life questions and dilemmas.

This specialisation gives you the opportunity to study various aspects of the relationship between power and morality. Can political principles, institutions, and practices ever be legitimate?
In the master’s specialisation Political Theory you will deep-dive into the theoretical and normative underpinnings of political science. Study the relationship between political power, morality and legitimacy. Explore topics such as radical democracy, political violence and authority, urban justice and recognition. Learn to critically assess these concepts and use them to evaluate and effect real-world politics and policies. If you want to move beyond determining facts and explaining political action, and also want to address what should or should not be done in politics, then you will feel right at home in this specialisation.
The Master's in Political Theory is a specialisation of the Master's programme in Political Science.

This specialisation focuses on political challenges for contemporary (non-) democracies, such as new demands on representative institutions and pressures created by migration and demographic change.
In this specialisation you will discuss the challenges facing 21st century (non-)democracies: How are democracies challenged by modern authoritarianism and populism? What new forms of representation are possible? What role can political parties, citizens and social movements play in achieving political change? The Comparative Politics Master’s will provide you with new insights into these questions, and provide you with the theoretical and empirical tools to investigate these questions as an independent researcher.
The Master's in Comparative Politics is a specialisation of the Master's programme in Political Science.

This specialisation focuses on global cooperation and conflict and the analysis of the players that shape global politics: states, intergovernmental organisations, media, multinationals, and NGOs.
Our International Relations specialisation will provide you with an insight into these players and into fundamental questions of contemporary international relations: is the international community equipped to address violent conflict and (cyber) terrorism? Why do states intervene in some cases of human rights violations, but not in other? Will the competition for natural resources intensify domestic and international conflict? What are the political consequences of regional integration (in Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Asia) and of the emergence of powers such as Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRICs)? What are the political ramifications of global trade and finance?
The Master's in International Relations is a specialisation of the Master's programme in Political Science. For the fifth time in a row, this programme was rated number one in the Netherlands by the Keuzegids Masters 2017 (Guide to Master's programmes).

Students will critically explore themes such as the determinants of political violence and warfare; the impact of political systems on the ways in which political demands are articulated; the links between ethnic violence, nationalism and war; how international regulations affect efforts to acquire peace; and which ethical dilemmas arise in such situations.
