Showing results for "Politics Is..." in World

Over two millennia after its compilation, the Politics still offers much to consider with regards to political science.

In socialist and communist countries, too, though professing equality, they inevitably end up being ruled by dictators.

Today, many believe that progress is a word to be avoided, a relic from a past, the dangerous product of an era of intellectual naivety that would be best forgotten.
