Political Science is not a science. Buckle, Comte, Metland, Emos, Beard, Burke and Brojen, etc. political thinkers did not consider it a science.

Following arguments can be given in favour of the fact that Political Science is not a science:

1. Lack of universal concepts. 

2. Differences regarding meaning, definition and study methods of Political Science. 

3. Observation and experiments are not possible. 

4. It is not possible to measure political activities. 

5. Lack of fixed and continuous theories of Political Science. 

6. Difference in nature of subject matter 

7. Hard to establish cause-effect relationship. 

8. Lack of absolute and fixed predictions.
