The '''Politburo''' (<u>polit</u>ical <u>bur</u>eau) is the highest ruling body in Socialist entities, parties and governments.  A Politburo in a country where socialism has gained [[single party control]] combines all the functions of [[government]], [[legislative]], [[executive]], and [[judicial]] with no [[checks and balances]].  In [[Marxist]]/[[atheist]] theory, the Politburo takes the place of [[God]].  Most [[socialist]] and [[communist]] minority parties that are tolerated in liberal democracies are governed internally by a Politburo.
