A government is an institution entrusted with making and enforcing the rules of a society as well as with regulating relations with other societies. In order to be considered a government, a ruling body must be recognized as such by the people it purports to govern. A person or group that considers itself the leading body of a society has no power if the members of the society do not recognize the person or group as such.

Explanation and Summary of Legislative Department in Article VI of the Philippine Constitution.
Reference Book: Philippine Governance and the 1987 Constitution
The Philippine judicial and legal system, including its legal education system, blends elements of civil law inherited from the Spaniards and American common law. For instance, civil code procedures on family and property matters, among others, and the absence of jury trials are attributable to the Spanish civil law influences. However, most of the more significant laws governing trade and commerce, taxation, labor relations, and governmental operations, as well as the principle of judicial precedents are an American derivation. In the hierarchy of laws, the Constitution has the highest legal force, followed by domestic statutes. In addition, generally accepted principles of international law and judicial precedents (i.e., decisions of the Supreme Court) also form part of the laws of the land.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

13. BASIC ISSUES IN POLITICS:
▶LEGITIMACY
▶SOVEREIGNTY
▶AUTHORITY
14. LEGITIMACY
- Attitude of the people about what they consider in
mind that government is a rightful ruler over them
- Legal and Psychological right to govern
- Compels people to believe and follow orders
15. - It is the right of the government to rule and the
right of a government of leadership to exist
- The right of a leader to rule and control not only
his subjects but also the territory over which
citizens live and prosper
SOVEREIGNTY
16. - It is the power of the leader to rule and the power to
exact obedience on his people. It is based on an
acknowledged duty to obey rather than on any form
of coercion or manipulation.
- It exists when subordinates acknowledged the right
of superiors to give orders.
- Right to act rather than the power to do so

36. 3 Legs of Governance
1. Economic Governance - country's economic
activities and its relationships with other
economies
2. Political Governance - to formulate policy
3. Administrative Governance - system of
policy implementation
38. 1. Participation
- participation by both men and women
- Participation is one of the strengths of
Philippine governance
- The 1987 Philippine Constitution is replete of
provisions dealing with relational and inter-
sectoral governance.
39. - The Local Government Act of 1989 was borne
out of the need for decentralization in
Philippine governance.
- As such, these and other related legislations
may be considered as normative standards for
good governance.
40. - legal frameworks should be fair and enforced
impartially
- Democracy is essentially the rule of law
- Rule of law demands that the people and the
civil society render habitual obedience to the
law.
2. Rule of Law
41. - It also demands that the government acts within
the limits of the powers and functions prescribed
by the law.
- The Philippines does not fare well in this aspect of
good governance.
- In spite of being one of the oldest democracies in
the region, the Philippines ranked as last among
seven indexed Asian countries according to the
World Justice Project Rule of Law Index.
42. - Generally, the reasons for ranking last are “lack
of respect for law,” “pervasive and systemic
corruption in the government,” and
“circumvention of the law.”
- Lack of respect for law is generally caused by
distrust on the integrity of law enforcement
agencies.
- Order and security are compromised and
criminal justice is rendered ineffectual.
43. - Free flow of information
- Transparency, as an indicator of good
governance, means that people are open to
information regarding decision-making
process and the implementation of the same.
3. Transparency
44. - In legal terms, it means that information on
matters of public concern are made available to
the citizens or those who will be directly
affected.
- It also means that transactions involving public
interests must be fully disclosed and made
accessible to the people.
45. - Efforts were made in pursuit of transparency in
Philippine governance.
- As far as the government sector is concerned,
the current administration, consistent with its
drive of curbing corruption, promotes honesty
and integrity in public service.
46. - It is currently pursuing the passage of the
Freedom of Information Bill and other related
legislations, as well as intensifying people’s
engagement in local governance.
- Transparency in budget and disbursements are,
however, still far from being substantially
implemented.
47. - serve all stakeholders
- means that institutions and processes serve
all stakeholders in a timely and appropriate
manner.
- It also means that actors and structures of
governance easily give genuine expression to
the will or desire of the people.
4. Responsiveness
48. - Some of the important efforts made to attain
responsive governance in the Philippines are
decentralization, creation of citizen’s charter in all
frontline agencies (as required by ARTA), and gender
sensitivity programs.
- First, through decentralization, local governments,
which are more proximate to their constituents, serve
more promptly the people, who in turn become more
involved in decision-making.
49. - Second, every government agency now has it
Citizen’s Charter, which provides timeframes for
every step in attaining frontline services.
- Agencies now must also respond to written
queries sent by the stakeholders or interested
parties within a period of ten days, otherwise
there will be delayed service.
50. - However, this aspect of governance still remains
to be one of the causes for the decline of public’s
confidence in the public sector.
- Although the ARTA has been passed, there is still
so much delay in public service delivery.
- The failure of the government agencies to explain
the charters to the stakeholders is one of the
main reasons why there is still delay.
52. - all have opportunities to improve or
maintain their well-being
6. Equity and Inclusiveness
53. - produce results that meet needs while making
the best use of resources
- actors meet the needs of the society means that
there is effective governance.
7. Effectiveness and
Efficiency
54. - That the valuable resources are utilized, without
wasting or underutilizing any of them, means
that there is efficient governance.
- enhancement and standardization of the quality
of public service delivery consistent with
international standards, professionalization of
bureaucracy.
55. - Efforts were made to attain effectiveness and
efficiency in Philippine governance.
- The Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007 (ARTA), for instance,
was passed to require the setting up of Citizen’s
Charter for a simplified procedure and to facilitate
governmental transactions.
- Also, many government departments and agencies
pursued a rationalization program to check
excessive and redundant staffing.
57. Importance of Studying Governance
- Governance, the people, most especially
the citizens, will be aware of the need for
good governance.
- Consequently, such awareness should
move them to action
58. - For their continued empowerment and
sustainable development, they have to know
how to fight for their rights by knowing what
to expect from Philippine governance.
59. PROCESSES AND ACTORS IN
GOVERNANCE
➢Decision-Making and Implementation
- Decision-making refers the process by which
a person or group of persons, guided by socio-
political structures, arrive at a decision involving
their individual and communal needs and wants.
- Implementation is the process that logically
follows the decision.
60. ➢Actors and Structures
- An actor is a sector or group or institution that
participates in the process of decision- making
implementation.
- A structure refers to an organization or
mechanism that formally or informally guides
the decision- making process and sets into
motion the different actors and apparatuses in
the implementation process.
61. ➢Informal Actors and Bad Governance
-Their influence is felt more clearly in local
governments, such as organized crime
syndicates and powerful families, and in rural
and urban areas.
-Most often than not, these actors are the
cause of corruption, in that legitimate
government objectives are distorted by their
illegal and private interests.
62. - Worse, they manipulate government officials and
agencies, and cause widespread yet organized
violence in the community.
- In urban and rural areas, for example, the rich and
powerful families control the economy by
controlling the local government officials.
- They bring about a controlled environment so that
decisions must always favor them.
