Politics is used as a synonym for person-to-person interaction and group dynamics.
Whereas neo-Coopetism concerns the government provision for Coopetition-maximising infrastructure – where Coopetition is ‘Cooperation first & foremost and Competition the treasured second’ – politics concerns what actually happens irrespective of the prevailing Coopetition-infrastructure.
However, currently, whether in the parliament or the office or the home, interaction is suboptimal because Coopetition is not yet a narrative (let alone the prevailing one) and neo-Coopetism infrastructure hasn’t been fully implemented.
When all are behaving coopetively, politics will be about policy not personality.
