The definition of noun word "policy" for the 21st century

 
As I expected, this  noun word "policy" is especially attached to a political connotation in this 21st century.
And of course, as usual, when I looked at the merriam-webster website for a sentence with the most common usage of the word, what I saw was a political statement, yet the website Cambridge.org did not use the same approach.
The political definition of this noun word "policy" is effectively showcased by the wikipedia website I found online.
Perhaps, more than any of the other websites I found, is the harvard.edu public interest that explores that noun word "policy" completely within the political context.
Why is this noun word "policy" so significant, especially in the 21st century? 
My research proves that the use of this noun word "policy" can be solely within the context of a political reference, a noun word that is relevant to the current  administration's immigration "policy" re the ongoing protests ensuing in Minneapolis by ICE and CBP's surge of federal agents to deport criminals, with some collateral damage re illegals without criminal records.
Yet the administration's current "policy" has as well been effecting a collateral damage immigrant population that has not committed a criminal act, other than entering the United State illegally, thus violating the immigration law as written by Congress.
In this time of differing opinions and what some describe as chaos, I believe it is more important than ever to define what makes opponents to the current administration's policy want to put their life on the line to oppose "policy."
