This text explores the nature of politics and the fundamental relationship between political success and ethics. The author argues that politics cannot be viewed as a purely technical, pragmatic, or ethically indifferent discipline. Successful politics is always either ethically positive or ethically negative; there is no middle ground for neutrality. While a politician must possess the technical skills and expertise to address practical issues, these competencies alone are insufficient without a moral foundation. The author rejects the notion of treating political society as a mere object of manipulation and critiques pseudo-Machiavellian cynicism used to mask moral failings. Bad politics is compared to kitsch: it is not a result of incompetence or lack of skill, but rather a proficiently executed form of evil. The text emphasizes that moral responsibility is inseparable from political action, asserting that society, like nature, cannot be managed through a purely instrumental approach.
