This abstract was translated from POLÍTICA PARA OS POLÍTICOS
 
The organic analogy in políticaDe agreement with the theoreticians, the organization politics is composed of parts (agencies) that they become related between itself, and therefore is similar to the physical body of the human beings the thinkers politicians had always looked analogies to describe the politics. Oldest and lasting of these analogies she is the organic one. In accordance with it, the organization politics is an alive body, in all fellow creature to the physical body of the human beings. As the human being, the organism politician is composed of parts (agencies), that they are in relation of interdependence between itself. The organization politics can be compared with an alive body, in all fellow creature to the physical body of the human beings. The healthful functioning of each one of these agencies (parts) results in the health (order peace) of the organism. Inversely, the bad functioning of one of the agency causes negative consequences for excessively, that, in different degrees, also they start to function badly, what results in the illness (clutter, conflicts). As much the human organism as the politician keeps relations of interchange with its environment, of it extracting the necessary elements to its survival. Both possess history, last and memory. Both possess dynamic of development and adaptation to the new circumstances, and the internal infinity of agencies, systems, processes if they accomodate inside of a unit, corpo/a society politically organized. It does not remain doubt of that the analogy is pertinent and appropriate. It has many similarities between both the organisms, and the majority of the processes politicians obtains to be described in reasonable way with the use of this analogy.
As much is as soon as, throughout the 2,300 years of the history of the politics as knowledge field, the organic analogy never was abandoned and still today the resource is common it in the speeches politicians, in all the countries. The organic analogy if characterizes, still, for the emphasis that attributes the characteristics of: Unit and completude of the organism; Interrelation and interdependence of the agencies; Development and adaptation and Evolution. The organic conception of the society and the politics, therefore, always showed attractive for the governing that they intended to emphasize those characteristics in its governments. The form of more harmonic and compatible government with this conception was, and is, the monarchy. Great part of the theoreticians of the monarchy had used this analogy, practising many times a literal interpretation of the similarities between the two organisms. In accordance with this conception of monarchy, the King was equivalent to the head in the human body (endowed with reason and will), headquarters of the wisdom, and, for consequence, the agency of command of the physical body or politician. This the reason for the choice of the decapitation as the extreme punishment applied the kings. To decapitate is to separate to the head of the body, eliminating its power to command the body.
