The four sentences (labelled 1, 2, 3, and 4) given below, when properly sequenced, would yield a coherent paragraph. Decide on the proper sequencing of the order of the sentences and key in the sequence of the four numbers as your answer.
1. The effigy of a candidate establishes a personal link between him and the voters; the candidate does not only offer a programme for judgement, he suggests a physical climate, a set of daily choices expressed in a morphology, a way of dressing, a posture.
2. Some candidates for Parliament adorn their electoral prospectus with a portrait; this presupposes that photography has a power to convert which must be analysed.
3. Inasmuch as photography is an ellipse of language and a condensation of an ‘ineffable’ social whole, it constitutes an anti-intellectual weapon and tends to spirit away ‘politics’ (that is to say a body of problems and solutions) to the advantage of a 'manner of being', a socio-moral status.
4. Photography tends to restore the paternalistic nature of elections, whose elitist essence has been disrupted by proportional representation and the rule of parties (the Right seems to use it more than the Left).

This paragraph looks at how photography changes electoral politics. Sentence 2 works best as the opening statement because it introduces the concrete practice: candidates placing their portrait on electoral material, and states that this act “presupposes that photography has a power to convert,” setting up the need for explanation. Sentence 1 should come next because it explains how this power works. It shows how the candidate’s image (effigy) creates a personal connection and shifts the focus from political judgment to appearance, posture, and daily habits, which helps explain the point made in sentence 2. Sentence 4 follows by showing the political result. If elections focus on personal image, photography “tends to restore the paternalistic nature of elections,” which goes against party-based or proportional politics. This outcome builds on what sentences 2 and 1 describe. Sentence 3 should be last because it is the most general and evaluative. It sums up the argument by saying photography replaces politics as a set of problems with a “manner of being,” and calls it an anti-intellectual weapon. This makes it a good conclusion, not a starting point.

The ideas should be presented in order: first observation, then analysis, and finally the consequence. So, the best order is 2143.
