What is politics? Why do we need to understand it? If you think you know the answers to these questions but find yourself struggling to articulate them, then you do not truly understand politics. At first glance, politics may seem disconnected from our lives—a mere turf war among politicians that causes stress rather than providing any real benefit. You might wonder if there is any real need to understand something so unpleasant and headache-inducing. However, politics has a much greater impact on our lives than we realize, and furthermore, we are deeply involved in it, whether we know it or not. To be ignorant of politics, which is so intimately connected to our lives, is akin to leaving a crucial variable in our equation for achieving our goals as an unknown. The equations faced by diverse individuals are all unique. Therefore, this course cannot provide a universal solution that solves everyone's equation. Instead, it offers various useful tools to assist you in the process of finding the answers to solve your own unique equation. Based on the knowledge gained in this class, students are expected to independently solve the political equations they face in achieving their goals.
