What is a Political Dynasty?




A political dynasty is when a group of family (oligarchy) commands the politics in a particular sector. For instance, the Binay Family composed of Jejomar Binay (Vice President of the Philippines), Jejomar Binay Jr.(Mayor of Makati) and Nancy Binay (Senatorial Candidate). Accordingly, a political dynasty has its own share of pros and cons.

Advantages

Disadvantages:

  • Absolute power, corrupts absolutely (initiate corruption, nepotism)
  • Unequal opportunities for other candidates
