ABSTRACT
The political aspect of human culture has been defined as that use of physical force which is accepted by a group or community as a part of its institutional order. The words "politics", "government" and "the state" have in our thinking and talking almost a magical virtue. The state is a reality which rouses in men the responses of awe and abhorrence, of holiness and hate, of reverence and contempt respectively. Most historians up to the present time have chosen the state and its affairs as the main theme of their interests, praise and abuse. While the philosophers from Plato to Hegel regarded the state as a God-like reality, others, the anarchists and nihilists, regard it as an evil spirit.
