Politics exists because people disagree about how they should live, who should get what and who should make decisions. Politics seeks to establish the general rules under which we live; it is the most basic and necessary of social activities. For the philosopher Aristotle, politics was the ‘master science’: that is, nothing less than the activity through which people try to improve their lives and create the ‘good society’. What makes politics different as a subject is its emphasis on debate, discussion and argument. It is likely to suit students who have an interest in the world around them, like to think for themselves and ones who want to develop their own views, rather than accept the views of others.
