Study Notes

State Institutions

  • Political structure or institution is the organized way in which power is allocated and decisions are made within society
  • Executive branch includes the President and Vice President, chosen through direct popular vote, with a six-year term.
  • The President appoints a Cabinet to oversee departments within the bureaucracy.
  • The Legislative branch is comprised of the Senate and House of Representatives, with the power to create, alter, and reverse laws.
  • The Judicial branch resolves disputes and includes a Supreme Court and lower courts.
  • The Supreme Court has the power of Judicial Review, allowing it to declare laws and decrees unconstitutional.
  • Power is the ability to achieve desired outcomes despite opposition, and the government utilizes it to demand compliance from the people.
  • To ensure compliance, governments strive to establish legitimacy in the eyes of the people.
  • Authority is power that people perceive as legitimate rather than coercive.
  • There are three types of authority:
    • Traditional Authority: Legitimizes power by respecting long-standing cultural patterns.
    • Rational-Legal Authority (Bureaucratic Authority): Leitimizes power through legally created rules and regulations.
    • Charismatic Authority: Legitimizes power based on exceptional personal skills inspiring devotion and obedience.

Economic Institutions

  • Economic activity is essential for human life, influencing social and cultural life.
  • Changes in production and distribution can significantly impact society.
  • Economic institutions provide essential goods and services through collective effort.
  • The concept of reciprocity, based on give-and-take exchanges, exists in various forms, such as:
    • Positive Reciprocity: Involves the exchange of goods and services with the expectation of immediate return.
    • Balanced Reciprocity: Focuses on maintaining a balance in exchanges over time.
    • Generalized Reciprocity: Involves giving without expecting immediate or specific repayment.
    • Negative Reciprocity: Attempts to gain as much as possible while providing the least possible in return.
  • Redistribution involves collecting goods and services from members of a community and redistributing them to different members.
  • The central authority oversees the collection and distribution process.
  • Examples include:
    • Taxes: Collected from individuals based on income and redistributed through government programs.
    • Charitable Donations: Function similarly, with contributions being distributed to those in need.
