What is the syllabus for the MA political science entrance exam in JNU?

The syllabus is based on the Bachelor’s level political science curriculum. If you are familiar with the concepts and theories that you studied during your bachelor’s, then you can easily crack the entrance examination. 

Some important topics include the following:

• Political Theory and Thought
• Comparative Politics and Political Analysis
• Indian Government and Politics

If you are from a non-humanities background, make sure to put in extra effort and be clear with all concepts and theories. To get a fair idea, refer to the books listed below

2. Global Politics- Heywood
3. Introduction to the constitution of India- DD basu
