Contradiction: The Existence of Law and Order Roots in Desire for Lawlessness

The existence of law and order roots in the ruling class’s desire for lawlessness. The only way a group can systematically break the law is to create, maintain, and control the law. Throughout history, law and order was the invention of the strong (and the ruling class) in order to maintain their rule. Aggression and selfishness of the ruling class become organized and legitimate through bodies of laws. Every upheaval, turmoil, or chaos that threaten the status quo (the dominance of the ruling class) is considered illegal. This means that the ultimate goal of the rule of law is to guarantee that the ruling class can break those laws. Sometimes wealth frees the minority from the rule of law, and sometimes political power does such. In other words, the existence of law and order in society for majority (for general public) is a side benefit of ruling class’s desire for lawlessness (and exerting aggression).
Nezman is an optimist that one day the preferences of ruling class will be aligned with the majority, and law serves the majority and not the minority of rich or powerful.
