Answer: _________.
The concept of a political system, along with political power, is today one of the central concepts in political science. It does not have a single definition, like other concepts. And this is understandable: the diversity of ideas about politics cannot but give rise to a variety of ideas about everything that is connected with it. The term "political system" consists of two words, and its content is determined by the application of the concept of system to the political sphere. Where does the political begin and where does it end? Where is the border that separates political and non-political phenomena: activity, power, processes, systems?
There is no doubt that everything political in one way or another is connected with the state, with state power. Parties are created to compete for seats in parliament. A leader becomes political only when he aspires to a leading position in a state institution or achieves something from the state. Any policy would have lost its meaning if it were not for the state.
But it is equally obvious that not everything that is state is political. Many functions related to the organization of the internal activities of state institutions are clearly non-political in nature. Only the public activity of the state can be political, i.e. such activities that affect the interests of wide strata or large social groups. But in the public activity of the state there are spheres that we do not attribute to politics. This is public administration in the interests of the whole society. It is not customary to refer to the political sphere as the organization of health care, public education, traffic and much more. Only where the interests of various social groups are coordinated with the help of the state or the interests of some groups are realized through the state to the detriment of others, does politics begin. In state activities, it is necessary, therefore, to distinguish between political and non-political (technological) management.
(About F. Shabrov)
21. How does the author explain the lack of a unified definition of the political system? What political institutions are named in the text (list any two political institutions)? In what situation does the leader, according to the author, become political?
23. The author discusses the components of the institutional / organizational subsystem. Using social science knowledge and facts of social life, name any two other subsystems of the political system of society. Illustrate with examples of each of these subsystems. (Name the subsystem first, then give an example.)
24. The author does not attribute the organization of public health education to the political sphere. Based on the facts of public life, make two assumptions about the situations in which these issues may become political, and explain your assumptions.
The whole life of people is inextricably linked with power, which is the most powerful means of protecting human interests, implementing people's plans, settling their contradictions and conflicts. The key type of power - political power - has significant constructive abilities, it is the most powerful source of the development of society, a tool with which social changes take place. However, political power can not only create or unite society, but also destroy certain social orders, lead to destructive consequences. It can be a cruel and unjust force, a kind of evil demon of society, shaking its foundations and cutting off the destinies of countries and peoples.
By its nature and origin, power as such is a social phenomenon. Developing and existing in various areas of human life, it is able to manifest itself in various spheres of social life and in different forms: either as a moral authority, or in the form of economic or informational domination, or in the form of legal coercion, etc. At the same time, power can differ in volume (family, international, etc.), in object (personal, party, public, etc.), in the nature of its application (democratic, bureaucratic, despotic, etc.) and on other grounds.
Being an integral part of social life, power develops in the process of evolution of the human community, acquiring certain forms depending on the various stages of historical evolution and social changes. As an indispensable companion of the development of society, power emerged long before the emergence of the state and its political sphere.
Since the formation of the state, i.e. over the past five thousand years, power has existed in its political, public form. Moreover, the initial, patriarchal (traditional) forms of political power seriously differed from its modern forms. In particular, in the political space of that time, there were no intermediaries between the population and state structures, the institution of separation of powers, or any elements of political competition.

Political electoral system, its key characteristics
Electoral processes are one of the highest priority areas in the development of the political sphere. On the one hand, it is the elections that allow a person with an active civil position to express their opinion and vote for the candidate they like. On the other hand, elections encourage a person to think about the possibility of nominating himself as a candidate, creating an election campaign and choosing ways to implement it.
Definition 1
In the broad sense of this word, the electoral system is a special system of social relations, which are based on the principles of forming elected bodies of state or municipal authorities.
The electoral system includes two main components: the electoral law and the electoral process. Accordingly, the electoral right refers to the theoretical element of the electoral political system, and the electoral process - to the practical implementation.
Definition 2
The right to vote is the ability of any citizen to take part in the formation of elective institutions, that is, any citizen of the state can either elect or be elected himself.
It is customary to include in the electoral law legal norms that regulate the procedure for granting citizens the right to participate in elections and to form government bodies through their preferences, political views and needs.
As for the electoral process, it is a complex of various events. Their key goal is the preparation of elections and their successful holding in accordance with the legislative framework provided by the authorities. The electoral process includes the following components: scheduling elections, organizing polling stations in accordance with general requirements, forming electoral commissions, appointing observers, registering voters, nominating candidates, registering their election campaigns, preparing ballots with the names of all candidates, as well as absentee ballots (according to necessary). The electoral process ends with the counting of votes and summing up the results of the elections.
Features of the proportional electoral system
In a broad sense, the electoral system is the procedure for determining the voting results. Mostly, the results depend on the principle of vote counting, which is provided for in one form or another of the political system. Today, there are three key political electoral systems: majoritarian, proportional and mixed. Let's focus on the second type of electoral system - proportional.
Remark 1
This political system (proportional electoral system) assumes voting by voters on the basis of party lists. After the elections, each political party receives a certain number of seats, which is directly proportional to the gained percentage of votes. For example, if a political party received 50% of the votes in the elections, then in the State Duma it gets half of the seats.
This system has several advantages. One of them is the representation of parties in elected bodies, depending on their actual demand and popularity among voters. This allows:
- more clearly identify the needs of society,
- express the interests of each group of society,
- to intensify the participation of citizens in elections in the political sphere in general.
Differences between proportional and majority systems
In contrast to the proportional electoral system, there is also a majoritarian one. In its conditions, the victory is won by the candidate who gets the most votes. Moreover, the majority can be absolute or relative. An absolute majority is when more than half of the votes are cast for a candidate, and a relative majority is when a candidate receives more votes than others. The disadvantage of this system is that representatives of some parties may not get a seat at all in the government, since they received fewer votes, when, as in the proportional system of representation of parties, they receive the number of seats in accordance with the number of votes they received in elections with sides of voters (percent is transferred to places).
In connection with such differences, many authors and researchers have carried out a comparative analysis of two political systems - proportional and majority. So, it was found that under a proportional system, various parties, including the smallest, still have a chance to get into parliament (not entirely, but only their individual representatives). At the same time, the party retains its name, political views, since it does not have to join other coalitions. It is also very important that in a proportional system, the unification of various interests occurs after the elections. For example, already in parliament, representatives of different parties can unite and create one, whose number and influence will be much greater than if they acted separately.
As for the majoritarian system, under it the unification of different interests and views occurs mainly not after the elections, but before they are held. Also, in order to get a mandate in an electoral district, candidates need a relatively larger number of votes than their rivals. Thirdly, under the majority system, politicians act on the basis of the creation of interest groups by a coalition. It is these processes that further stimulate the existence of a bipartisan system, or how else it is accepted to call it a two-coalition system.
Thus, we can conclude that the proportional system has greater advantages than the majoritarian system, since it opens up more opportunities for both candidates and voters who observe more fair and transparent elections.
