A patronage system refers to a practice where individuals or groups provide support, typically in the form of jobs, contracts, or services, in exchange for political loyalty or favors. This system often operates within government or organizational contexts, where leaders grant benefits to their supporters to secure loyalty and influence. Patronage can lead to nepotism and corruption, as it prioritizes personal relationships over merit-based hiring or decision-making.
