III. Introduction
The social institution that has one of the biggest impacts on society is the economy. It is
composed of people. It is the social institution that organizes all production, consumption and trade of
goods in the society. Think about capitalism or socialism. These economic systems -- and the
economic revolutions that created them -- shape the way the people live their lives.
The state has traditionally been the subject of most interest to scholars of global politics
because it is viewed as “the institution that creates warfare and sets economic policies for a country.”
