For this reason the author discusses the concept of policy and politics. Crossing the borders ad extra can be connected with an absolutism and totalitarianism. It is connected with not complying with the nanny ethical standards or omission of political activity. In the final part of the article, the author discusses the dilemmas within the framework of political science. They are manifested by practicing this political science just as common knowledge or scientific discipline and by the problem of classifying political science to social science or humanistic researches.
