  "Politics (from Greek: Πολιτικά, politiká, 'affairs of the cities') 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." It's a framing to see "making decisions in groups" as only a matter of power relations. Why view it as only adversarial, when it could just as easily be cooperative?
