POLITICS as a science is broadly defined as the art of power struggle. Political scientist Harold Lasswell defines politics as concerning the determination by official governmental decision-making and action of who gets what, when and how in a political society.
Thus, the essence of politics surrounds the elements of power and the authoritative nature of the power to make decisions that have impacts on the lives of the common people in the society.
