58 points 1. Do you think the state can exist without the concepts of Political Science? Why.?

2. In your opinion, what does the quote “Man is by nature a political animal means.”?

1: By modern standards of international law, no. According to article 1 of the Montevideo Convention a state needs to possess 1) a permanent population, 2) a defined territory, 3) a government, and 4) the capacity to enter into relations with other states.

As a practical matter a state without a government lacks the ability to be represented abroad. Without a government no group is authorized to exercise sovereignty internally. A state without a government cannot interact with, cannot negotiate with, and cannot communicate with other states.

2: I think it means that by nature we are use and need politics. Politics means Politics is the set of activities that are associated with making decisions in groups, or other forms of power relations between individuals, such as the distribution of resources or status. Which means no matter what we use politics to survive.

1) Honestly, a state/nation probably wouldn't survive without the concepts of Political Science/governance. Thomas Paine said government is a "necessary evil", because you need government to protect the rights of its citizens from threats both foreign and domestic. However, a government should only do what its meant to, as the Constitution states; "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity..." It is when government abuses its powers that it becomes a detriment to the welfare of society. As George Washington said, a government is like fire, a dangerous servant and a fearful master. If you control the fire, it can be very beneficial, but the moment it gets out of your control, it becomes catastrophic.

2) Now, Aristotle's quote here can have two meanings; (a) by human nature, we are all inclined to social interaction and drawn to political associations for our social needs. Or (b), the "animal" portion describes how humans are naturally selfish and only looking to benefit themselves. Politics can potentially be based in violence where humans turn to their "animal side", shedding their rational and cooperative anchors.
