The elements of state power are economic power, military power, State
military power can be divided into hard and soft power elements. Hard power
refers to the weaponry that a state has at its disposal during war. geographical
power, the power of alliance and internal political power. state's political
internal power is based on its ability to focus its actions and resources through
an organized political system. Economic state power can be derived from a
state's ability to mobilize industrially, or the natural resources that the state
has at its disposal.

A holder of sovereignty derives authority from some mutually


acknowledged source of legitimacy — natural law, a divine mandate,
hereditary law, a constitution, even international law. In the
contemporary era, some body of law is ubiquitously the source of
sovereignty.
But if sovereignty is a matter of authority, it is not a matter of mere
authority, but of supreme authority. 
A final ingredient of sovereignty is territoriality, also a feature of
political authority in modernity. Territoriality is a principle by which
members of a community are to be defined. It specifies that their
membership derives from their residence within borders. It is a
powerful principle, for it defines membership in a way that may not
correspond with identity. The borders of a sovereign state may not at
all circumscribe a “people” or a “nation,” and may in fact encompass
several of these identities, as national self-determination and
irredentist movements make evident. It is rather by simple virtue of
their location within geographic borders that people belong to a state
and fall under the authority of its ruler. It is within a geographic
territory that modern sovereigns are supremely authoritative.
how can we hope to wrest sovereignty away from the oligarchy and back to the
people?"
2. When the state has power to confiscate and threaten to accomplish
its ends—i.e. to tax, set tariffs, and prevent other governments from
attempting to form within its territory—it has gone too far. Indeed, all
the most basic characteristics that define the modern nation state
extend well beyond anything that could be called legitimate power. It
is the formal apparatus of authoritative roles and
law norms through which that sovereignty is
exercised.

The state, however, should not be confused with a


specific balance of powers a particular status quo,
a government. Governments may effect massive
change in laws and roles while the state remains
the same. Changed are the civil order, the polity,
the particular law norms and authoritative roles
through which the elite manifest their interest.

3. TRANSPARENCY 

In a general sense c i the supervision and control of the information and ideas that are
circulated among the people within a society. There are many different ways that
censorship is implemented though the interests of these people are primarily what the
state maximizes; but to stay in power, it must also promote the interests of those
whose support it needs to stay in power. The standard way to escape the dilemma—
either the state has no justification or it only serves its own interests—

4 Thoroughly written bylaws help organizations know how to handle new situations or
issues that may arise. Bylaws can save time trying to work out organizational
complications, help define your mission or goals, and keep things running smoothly. In
this section, we'll look at what bylaws are, when they should be written, how to write
them, and how to use them to keep your group on track.

Right operating procedures or policies and procedures, the people should know how to
choose a leader that knows the fundamentals and knows kung paano hahatiin and powers
of the state to make it more balance

 5. A state is a territory with its own institutions and


populations.
 A sovereign state is a state with its own institutions and
populations that has a permanent population, territory, and
government. It must also have the right and capacity to make
treaties and other agreements with other states.
 A nation is a large group of people who inhabit a specific
territory and are connected by history, culture, or another
commonality.
 A nation-state is a cultural group (a nation) that is also a
state (and may, in addition, be a sovereign state).

The word country can be used to mean the same thing as state,


sovereign state, or nation-state. It can also be used in a less
political manner to refer to a region or cultural area that has no
governmental status. Examples include Wine Country (the grape-
growing area of northern California) and Coal Country (the coal-
mining region of Pennsylvania).

When a nation of people has a sovereign state of its own, it is


called a nation-state. Populations living in nation-states share
history, language, ethnicity, and culture. Iceland and Japan are
excellent examples of nation-states: The vast majority of people
born in these nation-states share the same ancestry and culture.

6. A sovereign state is a state with its own institutions and


communities that has a permanent population, territory, and
government. It must also have the right and ability to make
treaties and other arrangements with other nations. A nation-
state is a cultural entity (a nation) that also happens to be a state
(and may, in addition, be a sovereign state).

Nations are culturally homogeneous groups of people who share a


common language, institution, religion, and/or historical
experience. Some nations are sovereign states, but many are not.
