Politics

Politics is a field of study that focuses upon the way people live in association, addressing in particular the institutions, practices and cultural meanings of public and private expressions of power. It examines basic questions about the nature of polities and communities and how they are organised. The politics discipline takes an analytical rather than simply a descriptive approach to the area, attempting to explain why and how things happen politically.
