Rubber stamp, is a political metaphor referring to an institution that has little power and rarely disagrees with more powerful organs. For example, in a dictatorship, the parliament may be little more than a rubber stamp of approval on the dictator's decrees. Conversely, in a constitutional monarchy, the monarch is typically a rubber stamp to an elected parliament, even if he or she legally possesses considerable reserve powers and/or disagrees with the parliament's decisions.
Rubberstamp, artificial verb referring to the above mentioned adjective.
Political science (also political studies) is the study of political behavior and examines the acquisition and application of power.
Another theory, proposed by biopolitics and based upon evolution is that politics is a macrotool created by man to organise itself for the collective survival of the group or polity.
The multiple notions of political power that are put forth range from conventional views that simply revolve around the actions of politicians to those who view political power as an insidious form of institutionalized social control - most notably "anarchists" and "radical capitalists".
Rubber stamping, also called stamping, is a craft in which some type of ink made of dye or pigment is applied to an image or pattern that has been carved, molded, laser engraved or vulcanized, onto a sheet of rubber.
The rubber is often mounted onto a more stable object such as a wood or an acrylic block to produce a more solid instrument.
The ink coated rubberstamp is then pressed onto any type of medium such that the colored image has now been transferred to the medium.
