Abstract: Abstract Politics is often a misunderstood term. To ‘play politics’ is a pejorative phrase, referring to activities which somehow seem divorced from reality and fair decision-making. A closer examination of the concept of politics reveals the limits of such a simplistic view. Crick (2000), in his classic essay on politics, argues that the essence of politics relates to collaborative decision-making, resource allocation and compromise.
