INTRODUCTION
Government system is the structure through which the country runs (Snagovsky and et.al
2020.). Australia country operated in a mixed system they are the representative democracy as
well as legislation monarchy. There system also consists of state federation. This essay will
cover the self reflection on understanding of politics and significance as a citizen.
MAIN BODY
Understanding of politics
Politics is the set of rules and activities that are combined to make decisions in group or
to distribute the resources and status. It is the social system in which the collective power is
developed and distributed among the social groups. Therefore, every system has its own
powerful structure and has a different functionality which are required to run a system. I believe
that the political theory is something which involve the political ideas, powerful role and
democracy which are important or necessary to make understood in the process of political
practices (Sheppard, 2021). It is something which shape the politics concept as freedom,
equality as for the Australian people their views and will are rarely homogeneous almost diverse
therefore the Australian people are tolerating the political decisions made by their political
structure. However, the political practice is the policy of the government which is distinguished
by the laws. I believe that it is an ideology which does not remain same it is dynamic and
changes with different roles and social policy. Australian government's politic dynamic is that
there are social groups they influenced the political system it is underpinned by the social
ideologies.
In my opinion political system is governed by the legislation and which have the
background from the human roots. As for that political group need to understand the laws by
which the community is living for their development. Australian political system consist of
confusion between the federalism and responsible government. Federal system in Australia
required a good will to continue their work effectively that has been accomplished by the
political process. Political parties acquired the parliamentary after the federation. Therefore, they
have the maximum seats in the government their impact is that their executive have the right to
dominate the parliament (Littlejohns and et.al 2018). Political parties decide who will be the
leader of the parliamentary house also who will become the prime minister. There impact is huge
