"Political stability" refers to a governance condition where the political system can function effectively without strife, upheaval, or significant changes in leadership. It ensures a predictable environment, fostering economic growth and social harmony. Political stability is vital for attracting investments and ensuring public trust in governmental institutions. Factors contributing to stability include effective governance, conflict resolution mechanisms, and a cohesive national identity. While desirable, overemphasis on stability can suppress democratic processes and civil liberties.
