Politics refers to the processes, activities, and structures through which groups of people make collective decisions and govern themselves. It involves the distribution and exercise of power and authority within a society, encompassing the creation and implementation of laws, policies, and regulations. Politics can occur at various levels, including local, national, and international, and it involves the interactions and relationships among various stakeholders, such as government bodies, political parties, interest groups, and citizens. Key elements of politics include the negotiation of interests, the struggle for power, the role of ideology, and the mechanisms of governance. Political systems can vary widely, including democracies, authoritarian regimes, and monarchies, each with its own methods for managing public affairs and citizen participation. The study of politics also encompasses the examination of political behavior, public opinion, and the influence of political culture on decision making.
