Political Science is not only a science, but also an art by its nature. Ancient thinkers like Brihaspati, Manu, Shukra, Kautilya and Plato, etc. had accepted Political Science as an art of government. 

Any subject needs two features for being an art:

  • It is possible to put the theoretical knowledge of that subject into practice. 
  •  That subject is value oriented to make life more comfortable. Political Science has both ‘ these features. So, it is

both science as well as art. Political Science uses its theoretical knowledge as an art of governance and execute its policies through administrative organisations.

The main purpose of making human life more comfortable always lies behind these efforts. Besides this, it studies the political life of past, present and future. It make a lot of pratical efforts for the implementation of these values and ethics. So, this practical aspect of Political Science can be termed as an art. Thus, Political Science is an art.
