About the Topic
Postmortem of Politics
Aristotle said ‘Politics is the supreme science’. For many centuries, politics was considered as the moral instrument to secure power and authority. Many oriental and western civilizations kept it alive by giving it various temporal and spiritual interpretations. However, from the background of modern history to the perspective of the contemporary struggles between power and authority, it seems that, now, the ideal lifespan of politics is over. The corpse of politics is devoid of its moral soul.
Why has this happened or why has this been happening? The answer to these questions will be evident only after the autopsy of politics. Which, clearly and surely, has to be done by us. (Lafz)
