What is it about politics that makes people get so angry?

admin — Sun, 30 May 2010 00:56:10 +0000

or passionate, in a non-horny sort of way.

I try to care, like other people do,
but almost everything in Politics is so much bigger then me.

The part that gets them upset is the part that affects their lives…

What’s the difference between the Politics section and the Election section?

admin — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 18:46:10 +0000

During the election, Politics talks about the election, but so does the Election section. After the election, Politics goes back to regular Politics, but so does the Election section.

I don’t get it.

Bonus Question: Why do you prefer hanging out here as opposed to the Politics section?

There is no difference in my opinion.

I hang out in both places because they are so similar.

1. Introduction: What is Political Philosophy?

Introduction to Political Philosophy (PLSC 114)

Professor Smith discusses the nature and scope of “political philosophy.” The oldest of the social sciences, the study of political philosophy must begin with the works of Plato and Aristotle, and examine in depth the fundamental concepts and categories of the study of Politics. The questions “which regimes are best?” and “what constitutes good citizenship?” are posed and discussed in the context of Plato’s Apology.

The Politics Of Dancing – Re-Flex

admin — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 00:16:09 +0000

Groovy!

“The Politics of Dancing” is a hit song by the British New Wave/synthpop band Re-Flex, released in 1983. It is the title track of their only released album.

It became the biggest hit of their career, peaking at #28 in the United Kingdom and #24 in the United States. The band managed to chart two more singles in the UK, but only managed to get one more single in the US. This song remains their signature song but makes Re-Flex considered as a one-hit wonder because of this song’s massive popularity and the group’s unpopular run of follow-up singles.
