What is Politics?

The scope of politics in the wealth of commodities, which Adam Smith called the "Wealth of Nations", and Karl Marx alludes to in "the immense collection of commodities." Modern politics arises from the coup of Reason (Rationality of Modernity) over Causes (Aristotle and Marx). Aristotle and Marx postulated causes of objective features of reality that are independent (not separated) of mind and language, i.e., natural being and entities. René Descartes and John Locke postulated rationality i.e., the power of the human mind. Politics arises from the divergence between causes and reason
