What is Politics? Politics is a method or way to resolve social conflict –“who gets what, when, and how” Social Conflict is the idea that people in a society disagree over beliefs, values, and what societies priorities should be Ex: abortion, defense spending, health care, higher education, scarce resources (oil, land, water)

What is Government? Government is the framework in which people determine and enforce methods of conflict resolution
