Is it simply a place that we live in? or, have you come across with the term ‘non-state’? Most of us are not really familiar with these terms or we are not really aware about them. However, it is important for us to understand these since we are a part of it. Furthermore, there are state and non-state institutions whose functions may benefit every individual being a part of the state. What is It What is a State? It is a community of persons, more or less numerous, occupying a definite portion of the earth’s surface, having its own government, through which the inhabitants render habitual obedience free from outside control. Four Elements of State 1. People/ population– It is important that the community of persons is composed of both females and males for purpose of reproduction. Reproduction is indispensable. It is through reproduction that the state can continue to exist. However, there is no requirement as to the number of people living in a territory for it to be classified as state. 2. Territory – There can be no state without territory. People need territory to live and organized themselves socially and politically. It may be remembered that the territory of the state includes land, water and air/space. Within it are natural resources which are vital for people to live and they have the responsibility to protect and conserve it. 7 Furthermore, the people must be able to defend their state from invaders, and in doing so, the use of force may be justified. 3. Government – This is the vital ingredient of the state. There can be no state without government. The government is the working agency of the state. It is the political organization of the state. This is where the laws to be implemented in the country are enacted. Since it is believed that the government should be established by the people themselves, through the constitution that they will promulgate, it is but logical for them to bestow their obedience to it. The people should follow the laws and respect the authority. 4. Sovereignty – It refers to the supreme power of the state to rule itself without interference from other states. This means that the state is an independent entity where people enjoy freedom. A territory is not a state if it is not independent. Two aspects of Sovereignty Internal Sovereign – The state is supreme over all its citizens, and associations. External Sovereignty – The state is independent and free from foreign or outside control. What is institution? Composed of a set of formal rules, informal norms, or agreed upon understanding that constraints or prescribed political actor’s behaviour and interaction with one another.
