Social deals more in relationship between people whereas political focuses more on leadership situations. Anything that is positive or desireable towards building and maintaining healthy relationship considered as stable condition whereas those that ruined that relationship treate as vice versa. Same goes to politics, stable political situation could be hard to describe in broad way because not every country hold same kind of political supremacy. But, it is easier to look in an organisation or a company management team. Positive, desireable and of course fair judgements, treatments and punishments taken as a stable political situation whereby they work or live together in peace and harmony. Instability goes vice versa.
