政治(zhènɡzhì)

主要有兩種用法：其一，指治理國家所施行的一切措施。“政”指統(tǒng)治者規(guī)定的法令、制度、秩序;“治”指對百姓的管理、治理，是“政”的具體實施。其二，指國家治理達到穩(wěn)定良好的狀態(tài)，即政治清明、經(jīng)濟繁榮、天下太平。近代以降，“政治”轉指政府、政黨、社會團體或個人在國內(nèi)、國際事務中采取的政策、措施和行為等。

Decree and Governance / Politics

The term has two meanings. First, it refers to all measures for governing a country. Zheng (政) stands for decrees, rules, and ordinances, and zhi (治) refers to their implementation, that is, the way in which the people are governed. Second, it refers to a state of stable and sound governance of the country, with an efficient and clean government, a prosperous economy, and a peaceful society. In modern times, the term is used in the sense of “politics,” as it refers to policies, measures, and actions that governments, political parties, social groups, or individuals adopt in domestic or international affairs.
