Question

A person who is strongly committed to a party, group or faction is known as:
A) Partisan
B) Political leader
C) Activist
D) Feminist

Answer 1

Hint:
i) A political party is a coalition that organizes candidates to run for office in a given country's elections. A political party's members are likely to hold similar political views, and parties can pursue particular ideological objectives.
ii) As modern party organizations evolved and spread across the world, political parties have become a big part of almost every country's politics.
iii) Parties play a major role in the politics of both autocracies and democracies, while democracies generally have more political parties than autocracies. Autocracies sometimes have a single ruling party, and some political scientists claim that rivalry between two or more parties is an integral part of democracy.

Complete answer:
A) A partisan is someone who is enthusiastic about a specific political party, organization, or faction. Partisanship is characterized by a proclivity to take sides and an unwillingness to take a rational approach to an issue.
B) A politician is someone who is involved in party politics or who holds or seeks an elected position in government. Politicians introduce, promote, and create laws and policies that control the land and, by extension, the people who live there. A dedicated member of a political party or army is known as a partisan. The term is used in multi-party systems to identify individuals who firmly support their political party's policies and are unable to negotiate with political opponents. A partisan in politics is not the same as a partisan in the military.
C) Feminism is a collection of social movements, political movements, and philosophies aimed at defining and establishing political, economic, sexual, and social equality between men and women.
D) An activist, on the other hand, is someone who fights for political or social change.

Thus the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note: Anarchy is the state of a community that has established itself without the interference of authority or a governing body. The word "anarchy" was coined in 1539 to describe the absence of government. An individual who believes in or attempts to bring about anarchy is known as an anarchist.
