Editing Uncertainty avoidance (section)

===Politics===

In politics, cultures with high uncertainty avoidance citizens tend to have low interest in politics and citizen protests are repressed. This is because political unrest would bring about changes which the majority would not be comfortable with. There also tends to be many laws with laws being more specific as to avoid any uncertainty in the interpretation and to guide which behavior is acceptable.
On the other side of the spectrum in cultures with low uncertainty avoidance citizens tend to be very interested in politics as it serves as a tool for change. Protests are accepted as another tool for change and laws are general.<ref>{{cite web|title=Uncertainty Avoidance|url=http://www.clearlycultural.com/geert-hofstede-cultural-dimensions/uncertainty-avoidance-index/|work=Make Sense of Cross Cultural Communication|access-date=17 June 2013}}</ref>
