Basic assumptions of Post – Behaviouralism:
1. Gist before procedure:
In Political Science, relevance of research should be more important then technique of research. How much purified the technique may be, if it is not relevant and comprehensible to contemporary social problems, then its useless to work on that research.
2. Important role of values:
Post – behaviouralistic accept the important role of values. According to them, only that knowledge is useful for human society which is based on values. Society can be tension free only by considering values as inspirational force for knowledge.
Post – Behaviouralism. has criticized the concept of value – neutral knowledge by considering it as anti – humanist. The purpose of social sciences is to create an ideal human society. So, they must acquire value – based knowledge.
