body politic | Definition, History, & Facts

Ancient origins

The first recorded instance of the body politic metaphor appears in the Rigveda (c. 1500 bce), the oldest of the sacred books of Hinduism. There the South Asian caste system is explained by comparing the priesthood to the mouth, soldiers to the arms, shepherds to the thighs, and peasants to the feet of humankind.

A well-known ancient example of a bodily metaphor appears in “The Belly and the Members,” a fable attributed to the legendary Greek fabulist Aesop. In the fable, the other members of the body revolt against the belly, which they think is doing none of the work while getting all of the food. The hands, mouth, teeth, and legs initiate a strike, but after a few days they realize that they are weak and ailing. They thus learn that cooperation between all members of the body, including the invisible belly, is vital for

C.K. Dexter-Haven, a successful popular jazz musician, lives in a mansion near his ex-wife’s Tracy Lord’s family estate. She is on the verge of marrying a man blander and safer than Dex, who tries to win Tracy’s heart again. Mike Connor, an undercover tabloid reporter, also falls for Tracy while covering the nuptials for Spy magazine. Tracy must choose between the three men as she discovers that “safe” can mean “deadly dull” when it comes to husbands and life.

    Three Branches of Government

    Three Branches of Government

    In 1787 leaders of the states gathered to write the Constitution-a set of principles that told how the new nation would be governed.

    The leaders of the states wanted a strong and fair national government. But they also wanted to protect individual freedoms and prevent the government from abusing its power. They believed they could do this by having three separate branches of government: the executive, the legislative and the judicial. This separation is described in the first three articles, or sections, of the Constitution.

    Legislative Branch

    The legislative branch is made up of the two houses of Congress—the Senate and the House of Representatives. The most important duty of the legislative branch is to make laws. Laws are written, discussed and voted on in Congress.

    There are 100 senators in the Senate, two from each

    Welcome to
    the
    Berkman Center’s     Openlaw site.

    Openlaw is an experiment in crafting legal argument in an open forum. With
    your assistance, we will develop arguments, draft pleadings, and edit
    briefs in public, online. Non-lawyers and lawyers alike are invited to
    join the process by adding thoughts to the “brainstorm” outlines, drafting
    and commenting on drafts in progress, and suggesting reference sources.

    Building on the model of open source software, we are working from the
    hypothesis that an open development process best harnesses the distributed
    resources of the Internet community. By using the Internet, we hope to
    enable the public interest to speak as loudly as the interests of
    corporations. Openlaw
    is therefore a large project built through the coordinated effort of many
    small (and not so small) contributions.

    Openlaw continues to experiment with various collaboration tools
    to connect its participants.
