Politics

Politics refers to the activities, actions, and policies used to gain and hold power in a government or influence the decisions of a governing body. It encompasses the processes through which groups of individuals make collective decisions, resolve conflicts, allocate resources, and establish societal norms. At its core, politics involves the distribution of power and authority, the negotiation of interests among various stakeholders, and the implementation of public policies. It can occur at various levels, including local, regional, national, and international contexts. Generally, politics involves debates over governance, law-making, and the management of social issues, aimed at promoting the welfare of the community or society as a whole. Political systems and ideologies can vary widely, including democracy, authoritarianism, socialism, and others, each with its own approach to governance and the role of citizens.
