The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.

The political sphere is important in that it involves and determines the interactions of different political powers. This understanding lies at the foundation of any political analysis of public life. Politics as a specific sector within human society is as old as it is modern. Many famous statesmen and scientists are credited as the authors of laws and political systems.
