Politics

Politics is the process by which groups of people make collective decisions. It involves the governance of a community, organization, or state, and encompasses the activities associated with the acquisition and exercise of power, authority, and influence. Politics is concerned with the distribution of resources and the establishment of rules and norms that govern social behavior. It includes various activities such as campaigning, legislating, negotiating, and policymaking. Political systems can vary widely, ranging from democracies to authoritarian regimes, and can involve multiple actors including elected officials, political parties, interest groups, and citizens. The study of politics involves understanding the dynamics of power, the role of institutions, and the impact of ideological beliefs on governance and societal outcomes.
