the activities associated with the governance of a country or area, especially the debate between parties having power.

On hearing the word politics, what usually springs to mind are images of government, politicians and their policies or more negatively the idea 
of corruption and dirty tricks. 

To begin with, the basest premise that underpins the notion of politics 
should be considered in order to arrive at a fair definition. Man is 
self-preserving by nature. He thinks and acts, whether that is as an 
individual or as a group who share interests, with foremost regard to 
his own interests. Self-perpetuation is the number one rule. He 
therefore possesses his own interests, ideas and preferences, which may differ to those of his contemporaries. 

Politics is the means to creating a more organised and peaceful society, by providing methods to resolve conflict that naturally occurs between men, by means of civil discussion and rational compromise. It thus stems the need for violence in tense situations and ultimately looks to avoid the degradation of a community into utter chaos. Authority is the underlying feature of politics and ensures its enforceability. Power 
underpins its very existence; it is a prerequisite for politics exist.
