I’m currently in a sociology class for the first time and I get a kick out of the idea that humans are so convoluted that we have a field of study about how society works and despite being able to document basically everything we still can’t figure out simple things like this.
As far as the class has taught, experts can’t conclude shit. Some people believe society is a complex machine that will naturally correct errors like crime. Some have decided that society as a whole exists as a means for the select few to oppress the major. Others state that society naturally self governs until it exceeds a critical mass and then must be split with each new form remaining in solitude from one another. Even still some attest that society is simply a consensus value and a need for governance only stems from the problems caused bypeople not getting on board with the culturally accepted ideal.

What do the experts conclude?
Also, Lemmy. How about that context?
