Politics and Political Science

Politics refers to the actions or activities which people use to achieve power in a country, society or organization, or which ensure that power is used in a particular way;

Political science is the study of the ways in which power is a acquired and used in a country, especially by those who govern the country. It is a collective term for a series of sub-disciplines, including political theory, comparative politics, international relations, the politics of developing areas, etc; For instance, the politics of the developing areas, also called the Third World, cover those countries that are less developed than the industrialized free-marked countries of the West and are concentrated in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

Originally, they were called or called themselves the Third World to be
distinguished from Western industrialized nations (the First World), and from the socialist countries of Eastern Europe belonging to the Soviet block (the Second World).
