John Rawls is among the supporters of liberalism

The North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) among the US, Canada,
and Mexico. The correct answer is E.

Yugoslavia became Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia, and Macedonia—later joined by Montenegro and Kosovo—all recognized as states with boundaries although Greece does not recognize Macedonia and Russia does not recognize Kosovo.

Ideologies are ‘complex’ (Heywood, 1998: 17-19; Vincent, 1992: 18; Freeden, 1996: 13). They
are not ‘hermetically sealed systems of thought’ (Heywood, 1998: 13). They are ‘modular structures,
frequently exhibiting a highly fluid morphology (Freeden, 1996: 88). They are ‘internally complex,
intermixed and overlapping’. So the correct answer is B. Because Ideologies are not ‘hermetically sealed systems of thought’.

The projection of power overseas is often
critical in terms of strategy. Dwight Eisenhower
oered a famous dictum based on the premise
that power is meaningful only when it is used.

At the other end of the spectrum is the desire of a nation-state to annex its fellow group members in other officially recognized states. The desire to unite all members of a group in one state is called irredentism

The development of Political Science as a discipline can be traced back to the 4th century BCE. It was the Greeks that separated the subject from theology for the first time. The correct answer is E.

The system defined in the question is federalism. In this system, power is shared between a powerful central government and states/provinces. The states are given considerable self-rule, and typically have their own legislatures.

The correct answer is D.

According to Frederick Pollock, Practical Politics includes:

• The State (Actual forms of Government)
• The Government (The working of Government, Administration etc.)
• Laws and Legislation (Procedure, Courts etc.) and
• The State personified (War, Diplomacy, Peace and International affairs). "The State as an Artificial Person" is not included in this definition.

Liberalism, socialism, and conservatism are different. They address every subject, every self, every citizen, as if universal. They address all of us, and not because of some end outside ourselves, not because of this or that value, but because of a claim about the fundamental criterion by which all of us should act in the world.

A president or a prime minister may head the Executive branch of government, and this will depend on whether the country is practicing a parliamentary or a presidential system of governance.

In liberalism the relation between one self and another is contingent, not constitutive; and it is law which enables the freedom of separate selves to co-exist. As expressed in Rawls’s first principle of justice, this means that ‘each person has an equal right to the most extensive equal basic liberties compatible with a similar system of liberty for all’. So that, as he puts it, ‘liberty can be restricted only for the sake of liberty itself’ (Rawls, 1972: 244).

In the Marxian approach to political analysis, politics is thus conceived in terms of the specific articulation of
class struggles.

The classic books on
ideologies are often divided into chapters entitled
‘Liberalism’, ‘Socialism’, ‘Conservatism’ and so on,
but there is no explanation why. So, liberalism, socialism,
and conservatism are considered the three
major ideologies.

Dictatorship describes a form of government
where political power is concentrated in the hands of a single entity and exercised through a diversity
of mechanisms which ensure that the entity’s power remains absolute.

The Marxian approach to political analysis is fundamentally different from the liberal political analysis – both traditional and modern. Karl Marx approaches the question of politics from the point of view of social change which is dialectical and historical.

According to Robert A. Dahl, politics is a universal activity. Whether an individual likes it or not everyone in a society is tossed into the arena of politics. To him, “a citizen encounters politics in the government of a country, town, school, church, business firm, trade union, club, political party, and a host of organizations. Politics is one of the unavoidable facts of human existence. Everyone is involved in some fashion at sometime in some kind of political system.

John Locke wrote that government exists to serve the people in their pursuit of life, liberty, and property (that latter was replaced by pursuit of happiness in the American Declaration of Independence).
