People without law and
justice are nothing but band of robbers.
__Augustine
About property and slavery, Augustine's view marked a clear departure from Aristotle's.
Both property and slavery, according to the saint, are contrary to original human nature.
But they become necessary in the actual condition of the fallen man.

Machiavelli's
Methods were historical but lie was a political realist, more concerned with the actual working
of government than a theory of tlie state.
He built his theories on the premise that men are
essentially wicked and selfish.
According to him, state is the highest form of human association
and an indispensable instrumenl for tlie promotion of human welfare.
A successful ruler or
'Prince' should be a perfect embodiment of shrewdness and self-control, making full use of his
virtues and vices.
Two basic means of success for a 'Prince' are judicious use of law and
phiysical force.
Tlie ruler is creator of law and of morality.

🧘♂SOCIOLOGY
Groups within which we spend our lives—in our families, schools, communities, workplaces, and societies—help to define us in the eyes of others, while defining us to ourselves as well.
Sociologists possess a quality of mind that helps them to use scientific knowledge and logical reasoning in order to develop understandings of what is going on in the world.
Sociology is a DISCIPLINE that makes it possible to see how individual experiences—how we act, think, feel, and remember—are connected to the wider society.
To understand human experience better, we must understand all that we can about groups and social relationships.
Sociologists examine the shared meanings that humans attach to their interactions with one another, and they study human experience as it unfolds within societies over time.
They study social patterns that are stable and also those that are changing
. Because sociologists must be able to recognize social trends and patterns, while being skillful writers, speakers, and researchers, members of the sociology faculty are strongly committed to teaching students how to do sociology and how to think sociologically about the world.
Sociology majors are given the opportunity and encouragement to develop their own ideas about society and to express them verbally and in writing.

INTERNAL SECURITY
👉"I believe that our national security lies not just in protecting our borders, but in bridging divides."
👉"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."
👉The country faces a challenging situation of dealing with internal security threats in the form of insurgency in north-eastern States, separatist movement in Kashmir, and the Khalistan struggle in Punjab.
👉Retaliation cannot be an answer to extremist attacks. Since the disturbances cannot be caused without local support, the country has to take precautions and be on its guard to ensure that things do not go out of control.

COMMON SENSE
Common sense is not lowest common denominator of simple-mindedness :-> It is a set of
rudimentary theories about experience expressed in everyday words.
Already, in common sense, we know that all aspects of nature are intricately
interconnected and interwoven with each other; and that some events, in particular,
seem always to cause others – but it is when we need to know, what exactly these
interconnections are, what events exactly cause others that out common sense
experience fails us. -> This forces us to think more critically ->These methods of critical
analytical thought, careful observation, recording and description, and this testing of
theories against facts are science.
-> Therefore, Common sense is science in embryo.

Disaster and Medical Ethics
Disaster ethics deals with situations in which a crisis has led to a large number of people needing medical help.
In the case of disasters, decisions must be made on who should receive services until more can arrive.
Due to COVID-19 many a times’ medical and other food material becomes scarce for the large no. of people wanting
them.
Hence Ethical Principles are required for equitable distribution of resources.
The other question crops up whether scarce medical supplies available at the time of pandemics should be
made available to front line medical doctors or to critical patients?
Medical ethics is a system of moral principles that apply values to the practice of clinical medicine and in
scientific research.
Medical ethics is based on a set of values that professionals can refer to in the case of any
confusion or conflict.
These values include the respect for autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice.
Such tenets may allow doctors, care providers, and families to create a treatment plan and work towards the
same common goal.
It is important to note that these values are not ranked in order of importance or relevance
and that they all encompass values pertaining to medical ethics.
However, a conflict may arise leading to the
need for hierarchy in an ethical system, such that some moral elements overrule others with the purpose of
applying the best moral judgement to a difficult medical situation.

Seven principles of public life
Selflessness,
Integrity,
Objectivity,
Accountability,
Openness,
Honesty,
Leadership.
🔮Leadership:
Holders of public office should promote and support the principles of public life by leadership and example.
For eg. Lal Bahadur Shastri used to fast every Monday to save grains for poor people of the country and he gave a call for the nation to follow it. Thus exhibiting a true example of how leaders should lead from the front.
🔮Selflessness:
Holders of public office should act solely in terms of public interest. They should not do so in order to gain financial or other benefits for themselves, their family or their friends.
For eg. Tukaram Omble of Maharashtra police tackled Kasab one of the terrorists of Mumbai attack so that he couldn’t attack his fellow servicemen. Thus showing exemplary courage and the highest degree of selflessness by giving away his life for the cause of his nation.
Gita also in one of its shloka- karmanye vadhikaraste ma phaleshu kadachana reiterates the principle of selflessness which means one should only focus on our actions and should not worry about the result.
🔮Accountability:
Holders of public office are accountable for their decisions and actions to the public and must submit themselves to whatever scrutiny is appropriate to their office.
For eg. Vikram Sarabhai accepted the failure of ISRO first mission without actually putting it on the mission head (APJ Abdul Kalam). Thus taking full accountability for the failure of his team.

Express gratitude, rather than apologize, to keep people on your side when you make a mistake.
Example: If you are an officer, and if someone is waiting for a while, it’s natural for you to say, “Sorry for the wait.” That immediate puts fault on you and puts the customer in a position to either admonish you or forgive you. Neither is appropriate in officer's situation.
Instead, you should start saying things like, “Thank you for waiting. I appreciate your patience.” Then you’ve complimented them. They feel like the bigger person, just for having done the ‘kind gesture’ of not knowing you still hold the reins.
