Metapolitics

Metapolitics is like the rules and ideas that people follow when they are trying to make decisions that affect a big group of people. It's kind of like the rules that grown-ups follow when they have a big meeting to decide something important.

In metapolitics, people talk about things like what is best for a whole country, or what kind of ideas and values we want everyone to follow. They might talk about things like how to make sure people are treated fairly, or what values are most important for a country to have.

Metapolitics is important because it helps people make decisions that can affect a lot of people in different ways. It's like deciding what kind of playground rules are fair for everyone to play by, but instead of a playground, it's for a whole country or community.
