Document Summary
By organizing society into a hierarchical structure under a higher authority. We feel a lot today the problem of order due to no higher power in the current anarchical system of the international state system. Order is not(: happiness, well-being, non-violent, non-oppressive, morally acceptable. Social order is not necessarily easy, just, or non-violent. Order is an important value but not necessarily the highest value. You need some order to get anything done, but if you privilege it above. If you focus too much on order, you lose sight of other values anything else, you lose sight of your end goals. If take away the expectation of order, life becomes beyond difficult and you don"t even know who you are. A great deal of social openness in domestic politics especially, disrupted order which increased fear and insecurity. After events like racial protests, we realize that the state provides a lot of social order.
