Topic: Politics is not necessary?! (Read 507 times)
Society is asymmetric in its structure. The existence of various classes and social groups (professional, demographic, ethnic, etc.) that have different, or even opposite interests, aspirations, and ideologies inevitably leads to their collision and struggle with each other. And in order for this natural struggle at all times and among all nations not to take the form of a “all against all” war, a special organization of force is required that would assume the function of preventing it and provide the necessary minimum of social regulation and order. It is this function of the self-preservation of society that is fulfilled by politics, and, above all, in the person of such its supreme subject as the state. It is no coincidence that politics is often defined as “the art of living together, the art of unity in a multitude”.
Politics are just basically the accepted way of the world to elect its leaders. It is based on the influence and how the politician himself/herself can present and how he/she can show that he is best fitted for the position. Well, a world without politicians means without leaders, so one way or another, we would return to the system of who has power (strength) shall become the leader.
We don't need politics.
In old China and Japan - and other SE Asia countries - the farmers are the ones who developed much of the martial arts so that they could fight enemies who came to plunder them.
In the developed countries, farmers with guns can do a lot better job.
Why farmers? Because they are usually reasonably honest. They can decide how the country should be run without resorting to politics. And they even do away with the need for police and the military... and money by bartering with their farm animals for what they need.
It's politics that gets nations into trouble.

Who would not say, but if there was no policy, we would still run with sticks and stones in the 7th century.
Now politics and political figures are mostly very bad.

I believe humanity would not survive without politics. It is in our nature to govern and to be governed.
From big nations to the smallest tribes, there will always be people who will act as leaders, second in command, minions and etc. Politics will always be there. And it is not politics that is evil in itself, it's just that more people who are evil and greedy choose to run for politics while the good ones dont.

Condemning politics altogether is throwing away the baby with the bath water. I think you might want to rephrase your statement. Politics as a whole is necessary. But politics, the way it's being played in most countries today, is not necessary. If you criticize politics in general, then what do you suggest replaces it. I am really keen to know. At least our world needs to be run in one way or the other. And time has proven that the option, dictatorship, isn't any better. Unless you know something we don't know.
This is what came to my mind:
Why are Principals and Directors necessary in schools and colleges?
Why are Directors, Presidents, CEOs, CIOs, Vice Presidents etc... necessary in organizations or enterprises?
Why are Medical Superintendents necessary in Hospitals?
Well, I could go on and on, the list would grow.
In all these entities politics is necessary.
But the fact is that each organization needs:
-well defined set of policies and procedures
-a group of managerial cadre of experts who are responsible for ensuring compliance to policies and procedures
-a group of experienced experts who decide the future strategies for growing and sustaining the business
Hence politics is necessary for administration of the affairs of a nation / country. Politics handles both internal and external affairs.

To be honest, I don't really understand politics, and I also have no desire to be involved in politics itself.
I am aware that our lives in the state are affected by the political conditions in our respective countries despite the fact that we still have to live our real lives and are responsible for our own lives, in my opinion politics does not help my daily living conditions.

politics is the basic need of state. politics can make the state and can destroy it. the politics which destroy the state then the non politics government is better.if politics which make the country better then it is very well that the politcian should control the state.
yes because with politics we can choose community leaders, and many countries use politics to raise their names. So politics can be said necessary and unnecessary, it is necessary if the state is a republic so that there is no nepotism, especially in running the government. there is no need for a country that applies a royal system where they may already know the descendants of a good king as a future leader.
This is true that politics is not necessary in those state which is not a democratic state. But sometimes it needs politics and a political leader if the state is democratic. A democratic state needs a good political leader who will work for the side of the people. Democracy means a state that maid from the people, by the people and for the people. So it is said that politics is not necessary but if it is a democratic state then there must need politics.
A country needs a government. But if you think back, is it necessary if your society is living without that government and can still exist and function normally?
What should the government do?

Politics for me is necessary. This is where standards and set of rules and regulations were able to met in order to sustain a harmonious environment for the people. Politics should regain its essence by having those politicians uplift the community and begin changing this chaotic world into a new one and build a foundation of peace and glory.
Politics makes our society works. But if that certain thing is really existing, I think we should be in a hurry quest on it. If that would benefit all the citizen of the society. I'm also thinking of that same idea, I asked myself if there is such thing that could replace our society. Politics is like full of mes nowadays due to politicians that do illegal thing like for example corruption. Thus, we can see how I'm tired of the system of the society so if there's such thing like that then we should definitely follow it.
Hundreds of years ago, politics were formed due to a strong need and demand of the people. The inspiration of its formation were drawn from the arbitrarily affirmation of people that they need a system in which they could unitarily decide what system will prevail and who to take over the facilitating of the power. And we could still draw a new concept out of that idea. If we all think that we should find a new way to uplift the living of the people, then it can be possible. Politics will only become unnecessary if we are ready to change the face of the world without such. However, I think that some would say that politics are unnecessary because of how worst the system is today. But if we could have better people in the politics than what we have today, surely, tge system will also become better.
My dream is to live in anarcho-capitalism system. Everybody provides for everybody. No politicians or goverments needed and the industry will raise insanely fast since there will be competition in every aspect of economy.
No, politics is not necessary in life. I think all we need is a president and everything else that goes along with it is useless. I think we as the people of our country should make our own decisions. We shouldn't have to rely on a governor or senator. Most of the politicians were or are still, lawyers. We should be able to make our own decisions.
actually we can not be separated with politics (because politics is the way we have to do to get the life we want).
Politics is necessary I think. I agree with social contract theory.
Politics are necessary, but currently there's too much noise around that stuff. But that's normal for our world - we tend to make things bigger than they are.
politics is necessary because without us knowing live in this world should be able to understand political life.If we live not politics then we can not compete with the people around us.Politics here does not mean to plunge into the party world,but teaches political science so that we can win a strategy to achieve the purpose of live.
If it exist it means it is necessary. Remember Clausewitz: War is the continuation of politics by other means.
So if you take away politics, guess what you have left?

We accept politics because this is the world system to govern societies. What if there is another way and much better way when it comes of guiding us and answering our needs. We are just not aware of it because we are blinded by what is already there.
I doubt that there is any other way to express our ideas, thoughts, and opinions. Politics has these characteristics and it is the reason why We have Our government the way it is. If politics really is gonna be replaced then I would assume that it will happen in the time where Artificial Intelligence is within our world. Our society will slowly change and adapt to this futuristic government and politics might just be replaced by another set of opinions, ideas, and thoughts. 
I'm not sure. I guess politics is necessary, but a wise one... And in the modern world politics is associated with something negative and bad
Without politics there is no possible to create a good society. Without politics we can go into the middle ages or something even worse.

we still need of politics because those were to be our guideline to a peaceful and harmonious country. 
for now politics is very useful to build society. but often very abused by the role of the politician, there are so many cases of people politicking because they have gained power from society. if there is a new idea or system that is better than politicsof course we have to try. but it may take a long time to change it

We can argue if democracy in its current state is still the appropriate answer to the need of the modern society. We can change the mechanism of governance (crpyo can play an important role there) - it will still be a form of politics though, but the meaning of this concept can change as well.
The author of the topic can tell us another way instead of politics? For example, I do not see this way. It is necessary to choose the right politicians, so that later it would not be bad to live.
And that new way would be politics. We have indeed tried many types of political system and are now converging to a democratic socialist systems.
Yes, politics is important for a nation. Because everything inside the country handles government, for this nation becomes a own flow to go. But if there comes more strong thing than politics then politics will go down.
Every nation needs a government. There should be some organisation that take decisions and lead the way. The nation chooses who should be in this organisation that we call government. The problem is that some people in this organisation or government do not care about the nation, but only care for their own profit or just want to have power over the people. A government with really honest politicians would be a blessing. As a matter of facts it's just politics most of the time: politicians not saying what they mean and not meaning what they say.
Yes! And to add to that, humans are a social specie and interact with others. With that interaction, we also take special precaution on how to talk to someone, what topics to avoid, how to get the message through and basically all of those is politics. I really believe that so long as we have a sense of social interaction with others then we need politics

If this would really happen and something different would replace politics then it would really help a lot of citizens all over the world. Because in reality politics are used for selfish reasons only when it is made to serve and care for the public. This must stop and someone must find this and use this to replace the system called politics.
