Document Summary
Given out 9am october 22, due october 23rd at 6pm. Possible 5% upgrade from tutorial attendance and participation. What is political science / what is it not. Monadic definition and its problems / beyond it. Politics as a uniquely human activity and politics as ubiquitous activity. In this class we reviewed the meaning of politics and the answers the class submitted the day before. Prof nossal didn"t give a direct definition or statement but went over some of the better and incorrect ideas. Ideas, how their acted on, debated and influence people. Politics isn"t always fair, it gives us an outline on how to judge and read situations. Very much about law, shaping communities, how we apply these laws/the application of rules. Conflict can commonly be resolved through politics. The dynamic of leadership is very important. Hatred, this is a very common theme. Politics is the willingness to dominate and enslave others.
