Politics

Politics - is the process of making decisions that apply to members of a group. It refers to achieving and exercising positions of governance and organized control over a human community, particularly a state.

In modern nation-states, people have formed political parties to represent their ideas. They agree to take the same position on many issues and agree to support the same changes to law and the same leaders. Political is a ubiquitous and seemingly indispensable term in the discussion of human affairs. We use it to speak of quite different kinds of things institutions, actions, conflicts, expenditures, a type of discourse, a branch of science, and such. We apply it to the life and thought of modern nations, ancient cities, and primitive tribes. Even the internal affairs of businesses, unions, schools, and churches are sometimes called “political.” In all these cases, we assume that the term has, or at least can some definite meaning. Yet it is difficult to say what, if anything, “political” signifies in its various applications and how it signifies what it does. 

On a political school trip, we offer immersive experiences that bring the workings of government and political theory to life. Students will visit legislative buildings, engage in workshops with political analysts, participate in mock elections and debates, and explore historical sites significant to political history, fostering a deeper understanding of civic engagement and political processes.
