Politics is the practice and theory of governance, involving the distribution and exercise of power within a society. It encompasses the activities associated with making decisions in groups, the formulation and implementation of policies, and the debate and contestation around authority and resources. Politics operates at various levels, including local, national, and international contexts, and involves various actors such as governments, political parties, interest groups, and citizens.
The term also refers to the ideological frameworks and systems that influence how societies organize themselves, address conflicts, and pursue collective goals. Politics is inherently linked to concepts like justice, rights, and power relations, as well as the mechanisms of control and representation within a community. It often involves negotiation, compromise, and the struggle for influence among different stakeholders with competing interests.
