POLITICS
● is derived from the Greek word polis which means “city-state”, a small independent self-
contained political society.
● “the heart of Political Science”
● It is the activity of people where they create, preserve and amend laws under which
they live.
● Politics is what defines the activities of the government and of the state. All
government officials and all those working in government are participating in
politics.
● Politics happens in all human interactions: within the family, among friends, among
officemates, etc.
Politics can, therefore, be seen as struggle over scarce resources, and power can be seen as
the means through which struggle is conducted.
