Western Political Thought And Theories Political theory, which is a part of the philosophic-scientific thinking, began in Ancient Greece. The word 'plitics' is derived from the Greek words politics, which means city-state. The Greece used the term politika to describe the totality of state phenomena. Political theory deals with the fundamental questions about the state, government, the ends of political action and the means of achieving them. It also deals with the possibliites and necessitites of political situations, property, law and the enforcement of a legal code by authority; what they are, why they are neded, what makes a government legitimate, what rights and freedoms it should protect and why, what form its should take and why, what the law is, and what duties citizens owe to a legitimate government.
