AUCA ICP Department

The department of International and Comparative Politics of American University of Central Asia aims to develop in students the ability to identify, explain, understand and contextualize political institutions, organizations, behaviour, and various other phenomena comparatively and against the general background of contemporary world politics. To that effect, students are expected to have a general understanding of what constitutes International and Comparative Politics. 

In the meantime, the ‘comparative’ element of ICP as a field carries both methodological and substantive implications as we endeavour to explain political processes, institutions and behaviour from a comparative perspective and across national boundaries.
