stable control is not necessary for a good, functioning society that best serves its inhabitants in the short and long term. it is, however, necessary for easy subjugation, authoritarianism, and, inevitably, fascism. there also don’t need to be any rules that people must follow, just agreed upon principles to use to resolve conflict.
But everyone can’t agree on the same principles, that’s one reason why there’s conflict in the first place. Just take “Murder is bad”, for example. That obviously counts for humans but what about animals? Vegeterians/Vegans have a different opinion on that than people who eat meat, so who is going to decide who’s right?
No. Authority is necessary to have stable control. Laws are a tool to define the rules the people must follow.
