Human beings are considered social animals. Being such, we have tendencies
to join groups. Having different interests, there is also a tendency towards conflict.
Therefore, to avoid conflict and maintain social order, there is a need to establish a
defined political system and defined political power.
Thus, this module will help you understand more on political and leadership
structures of communities.

What’s New
What Is It
Political Organizations
Bands and tribes are considered as the simplest political systems. They are
often perceived without a well-defined system of leadership.
gender and age is well-defined. There is no formal leadership, instead, those who
possess special skills and knowledge can be raised to become informal leader.
Some leave the band to form their own group (social velocity). The band who
survives fissioning and social velocity eventually becomes a tribe.
A tribe (tribu) is more complex and larger than a band. As the population
increases, there is a shifting from a basic form of livelihood to a multiple way of
living. Tribe is organized through pantribal associations in the form of councils, tribal
leaders, elders, etc. due to the presence of multiple communities in a tribe. Tribes
are commonly headed by a village headman who perform leadership roles but has
limited political power. Most tribes remain egalitarian.
Authority is the right to command. Authority is observed when an individual has
a command to make a person do things. Such act is a response to that person’s
perceived power. This person can be your boss, your superiors, or those who hold
high positions in the society. For example, public officials are elected by the people
and granted with the rights to regulate and exercise administrative functions based
on the existing laws of the land.
