As the individual comes into contact
with the government, he becomes a Political Actor and Social Justice
Entrepreneur. A Political Actor can be
defined as an individual that interacts with the government. He becomes a Political Actor because he
articulates and aggregates interest to make contact with the government. In this, the person conveys political demands
which then the government, under the Constitution are obliged to consider to provide
concessions. The concessions are items of bargaining and these are rationally deliberated by the government as it is a duty to the citizen. A Social Justice Entrepreneur is defined as an
individual that seeks to make societal changes via rhetoric and communication
with the publics. The individual becomes
a Social Justice Entrepreneur because he analyzes and researches the
concessions provided by the government.
If the concessions are insufficient, the individual is then compelled to
verbalize demands to the government via interest articulation. This process continues through PETITIONS via
interest aggregation. When a PETITION is
created, the individual becomes a defacto Social Justice Entrepreneur. PETITIONS are instrumentation that convey
civilian demands for changes to government policy. With that in mind, there are phases by which
interactions of Political Actors and Social Justice Entrepreneurs occurs which are
sporadic and disorganized because situations circumstances and scenarios within
the domestic environment are not able to be completely determined or
forecasted- there is always a doubt and the government bureaucracy is always hauling and pulling (Sens et
al. 2005) as they make their decisions via rational choice theory. This means
that the Political Actor, must navigate through the political system to
identify the correct policy changes that fulfil the demands of that individual
and the people that he or she advocates for per the instrument in
question. In that though, many
discrepancies occur. People interacting
with the government have come from various walks of life and various experience
levels. This causes the government
bureaucracy handling the community to receive documents with demands that are from
interest articulation with various progression levels of legal literacy. This means that, being a Political Actor and
a Social Justice Entrepreneur is a learning process because of a legal literacy
component and the fact that CANLII states in an article written by Zariski, it
specifies that citizens live within the shadow of Law (2014). As a result, the civilian Political Actor and
or Social Justice Entrepreneur are learning the government bureaucracy while
they interact with it because the government didn’t provide education to its
citizens for the interactions that occur hence, the majority of people
communicating with the government lack legal literacy to do it
effectively. As a result, this causes,
demands that are not complete, or the demands that are missing components or
demands that are not articulated properly.
Therefore, it’s the governments liability that comes into question
because of this. According to Engineers
Canada, Engineers, “keep themselves informed in order to maintain their
competence and strive to advance the body of knowledge within which they practice”
(2023). A lifelong learner harbors a
disciplines ability to be able to come up with better solutions to benefit the
society. The College of Physicians value
the process of experiential learning because it creates acumen and further,
they value and, “develop and advance … professional knowledge, skills, and
competencies through lifelong learning” (2023) as a result. As for the Law Society they say that competence
is an “ethical and legal principle” (2023) that the Lawyer must hone in “all
areas of law in which the lawyer practices.” (2023). These are all best
practice principles. Potter and Perry
says that “best practice” is guiding principles for ethical decision making
(2006) Hence the Political Actor and the
Social Justice Entrepreneur as they interact with the government, attempt to
use existing legal constructs to convey demands to the government and further
this involves polity. Polity can be
defined as the exercising of advanced political institutional relations. With the above mentioned, the phases of Political
Development and Planning are as follows:
Political Incubation- This is the phase where intrigue happens. In this phase, the Civilian becomes a Political Actor or a Social Justice Entrepreneur. The Incubation Phase is where the aforementioned express interest in politics so that objectives can be met. This phase is very important. It is like goal setting. This phase sets the trajectory of the individuals aspirations as it pertains to interaction with the government.
Political Latency- Waiting/ organization period. In this phase, the Political Actor or Social Justice Entrepreneur reviews data that he or she has sent into the government. He or she then plans and strategizes a trajectory so that there is a higher probability of meeting political objectives.
Political Maturation- The attainment of political objectives. In this phase, the Political Actor or the Social Justice Entrepreneur has engaged with the government and the interaction yielded results. Persistence is a value that is held by many Political Actors and Social Justice Entrepreneurs, in Political Maturation, individuals with high perseverance and persistence are able to better navigate to find solutions to their political inquiry. Whether it is the sought-out solution or an innovation solution, the Political Actor or the Social Justice Entrepreneur, within this phase have met their political objective.
Political Mentoring- This is a common practice between political dynasties. People that have come before the individual being mentored, such as George Bush, David Cameron, etc., aid their prodigies to develop political character. Such political character can be historical figures as Napoleon Bonepart, Shakespear, etc., help the Political Actor or Social Justice Entrepreneurs with their political objectives.
Political Development and Planning is a form of social mobilization. In Political Incubation, the Political Actor uses intrigue to create a basis and this is done through transparency because when an individual becomes a Political Actor he is at risk for committing tort treason. In this phase, the individual uses the proponents of legal discovery to conduct a legal analysis of the government bureaucracy. In this legal research, the individual is tasked with, “learning the ropes.” As this process of learning occurs, the individual gains proficiency through the length of the interaction with the government. This is also the phase by which the individual expresses demands which could then potentially benefit the “national interest,” of the government that he or she may be interacting with. The demands are sent from the Political Actor to the public forum or a government forum involving clearance for access. As the individual penetrates the government, he or she uses proponents of Public Relations, Marketing and Political Science in order to be able to affect the government bureaucracy in civilian solicitation.
In the Political Latency phase, the Political Actor uses the customs and the conventions of the domestic environment to grasp an understanding of the government and the domestic environment. When this is achieved at a high proficiency, the individual is ready for Political Codification. In Political Codification, the individual creates conventional codes by which his or her actions are explained this occors through some form of METHADOLOGY this then fulfils the rule of law. Political Actors like Lawyers, as explained above, must hone competence in the areas that he or she functions intrigue. For example, if the individual is a Nurse and that individual comes into contact with the government, the Political Codification that can occur is the creation of a SERVICE AGREEMENT or a POLICY AND PROCEDURES MANUAL. These instrumentations are then used to penetrate the government. As the individual develops into an adept Political Actor, he or she can employ the process of segmentation, targeting and positioning to create a social construct which serves as a means by which the Political Actor can be recognized by the publics for democratic purposes. With this then, the individual can start to create a POLITICAL PROGRAM. POLITICAL PROGRAMS involve political codification and various multimedia content so that the publics and the government can be persuaded to a specific direction. The use of modern Marketing techniques can be used such as creating innovative and captivating slogans, statements or excerpts. These are all used to create a tone. When a tone is created it allows the Political Actor to use the communication technique of “empathy.” Empathy is very important in politics because it allows people to see the point of view of the Political Actor.
In the phase of Political Maturation, the Political Actor then observes the policy process within the government bureaucracy. As he or she gets accustomed to the various policy within the government, he or she can then start to conjure policy ideas and this is done scientifically using the Scientific Method to gather and collect data and to observe domestic environment experiments and designing of experiments for the extraction of information for the purposes of benefitting the domestic environment. This is the phase where PETITIONS are created. Further, the Political Actor can then start to politically canvas these ideas so that he or she gains public acceptance (Cleland 2019), which is a policy objective. As the individual progresses, Political Campaigning can occur if he or she obtains public office. In this phase, the majority of the development occurs. If however, the individual does not gain office, other faucets can be explored for political intrigue. For example, in the George Bush regime, this honorary President used intelligence to be able to strategically plan his business ventures. This resulted in the rise of the military industrial complex within the two terms that he was in office. Not only that, the President gained revenue as a result of the contingency planning that took place.
Political Mentoring is the phase where the Political Actor has achieved political objectives. This is the phase were proliferation occurs. In Political Mentoring the Political Actor attends venues wherein the process of public speaking is demanded of the Political Actor. This is demanded so that social movements can rise to affect the government and the domestic environment. Public Speaking is a form of legal communication and what is said to people during a public context has large ramifications. This means the Political Actor must exercise due diligence as what is said in Public Speaking can be used against him or others. Audiences are very sensitive and what is said needs to be crafted in what is referred to as rhetoric in the discipline of Political Science. Good rhetoric affects the echo chambers effectively which is why political dynasties create good rhetoric to affect the people so that they may participate in a democratic domestic environment.
