1) Define and examine the the nature of 'politics' and its relationship with human nature/behavior as illustrated by the authors. What is/are the symbiotic relationship(s) between politics and power? Please explain the theory of EVL and where the citizen (you) fit in this dynamic of power exercise? I am looking for examples where applicable.
2) Like it or not every citizen is directly linked with Economic and Cultural Determinants within their own democratic or non-democratic along with the theory of the term Modernization. Does culture or identity play any role in politics and can governments play 'culture and identity scenarios' and how can an educated v. low informed society be impacted by this theory? You can use current scenarios here in the U.S., Europe in general, or Latin America. You are not limited to these areas.
3) How do the authors define a 'state'? We have heard of a functional state, failed state, predatory state, and maybe a rogue state--explain, compare, and contrast each and what do we mean when we label states as such? We have all these types in 'real politic' or as we speak. Please provide examples for each. I can think of at least one in each continent minus the polars:)
The book name is: Clark, Golder, and Golder: Foundations of Comparative Politics.
