Politics is about psychology.
Everything – tweeters sharing fake news, protestors chaining themselves to railings, delegates refusing to budge on climate targets, leaders invading their neighbours – boils down to the opinions, decisions and behaviour of individuals, and understanding those is the territory of psychology.
If you want to be at the cutting edge of political science, investigating how the personal becomes societal and the inner-most thoughts of an individual shape national and global politics, welcome home.
