through the making and enforcement of collective decisions politics is inside the government it is the vehicle that runs the government characteristics of politics politics always involves the making of collective decisions for a group of people those decisions are made by some members of the group exercising power over other members of the group these characteristics are present in every government system or society in studying politics there are two approaches political philosophy it is a tradition approach in which the primary goal is to understand the essence or the truth about politics political science it is an empirical objective approach in which it places little emphasis on abstract and nominative question and concentrates on a dispassionate and objective description of the realities of politics politics is concerned with the state affairs of the country and on the other hand political science focuses on the theoretical analysis of politics and governance actors the word of politics includes politicians lobbyists and administrators conversely the world of political science includes political scientists scholars and academics aims politics aims or should be at improving to welfare and condition of all citizens and at promoting and implementing constructive policies conversely political science aims at understanding different political paradigms and at providing a comprehensive theoretical framework that may explain reality aside for the differences between politics and political science these terms also have its similarities in nature in both cases the government and the structure of the country's political system are the main subjects concerned politics and policies often based on theoretical ideas and assumptions outlined and analyzed by political science and all or almost all actions taken by politicians can be linked back to theories and theoretical paradigms inferred by the analysis of years or even centuries of politics before we proceed with our discussion let's have your quick chat on the screen will flash words tell what idea refers to it i'll give you five seconds for each item ready let's start affairs of the cities

cover knife greek word kubernetes it means to steer directing or controlling of a state the answer is governance how were your answers did you get all correct answers great it means you were attentive if not maybe you had some confusion let's move on with our discussion maybe you have the idea that governance is the same as government we will go into more details about it oftentimes the word government and governance are interchangeably used both denoting the exercise of authority in organization institution or state government is the name given to the entity exercising that authority since the government doesn't only decide for all the civil society and the private sector plays an important role in the community thus the conception of the word governance on the other hand governance is a broader concept in its widest sense it refers to the various ways in which social life is coordinated government can therefore be seen as one of the institutions in governance it is possible to have governance without government clearly we can tell the difference between the government and the governance government may be of different types it may be democracy or autocracy but most of the modern governments are democratic here we are taking into consideration the democratic ones in the relation with the government a democratic government may be defined as that which has the public mandate to run the affairs of the country with a well-defined term after which is the successive term the same people may be elected again the government may be labeled as good or bad according to their ways of working for the good of the people if a government provides capable governance then it has a chance of coming back into power again governance is the act of governing or ruling it is a set of rules and laws framed by the government that are to be implemented through the representatives of the state simply put governance is what governments do governance is a concept that can be followed in an organization of any sign be it a single cell or an organism or all of the humanity governance may function variously for profit or non-profit for people or itself the nature of the government is in the concept of governance a government can turn out to be good or bad it will depend on the set of rules implemented good government also implies accountability transparency participation openness and the rule of law and as the ebay unesco emphasized that good governance is expected to be participatory transparent accountable effective equitable and promotes the rule of law why is good governance important what will the nation benefit from it the fundamental reasons why organizations should adopt good governance practices include to preserve and strengthen stakeholder confidence if there is a good governance the stakeholders have the confidence to support the organization thus it results to sustainability of organization and achieve success to provide the foundation for a high performing organization the best practices of having a good governance contributes to achieving the goal of the organization it set a higher level of performance that develops a strong foundation of the organization to ensure the organization is well placed to respond to changing external environment the process of understanding our changing world requires leadership commitment and resources from the governing body that establish and maintain a system within an organization and the governing bodies as the ultimate leaders of organization should take prime responsibility for this i remember an article written by siddharth nard saying that good governance is good politics putting the citizen first is the guiding principle of good governance it is the ideology that brings stakeholders the government and the citizens closer to each other good governance is the key to a country's prosperity and progress for this to happen it is important that the
