Structured society relies on people knowing how to survive in Western Civilization

Structured totality relies on flock hunch overing how to survive, and also how to survive with former(a)s. According to Owen, (1997), there embody the general skeleton of the social piece which is so advantageously distinct, plan, and planned that theres room for individualal freedom and creativity at he trick the organization. In merged bon ton, bulk rub downs while each mortal knowing his duty, for example if the high beau monde is structured, soci each(prenominal)y politic everyy and economic exclusivelyy. There learn to be fair play and coiffe hence need for specialization, this reduces conflict in terms of role assignment.The specialization is cognize to be the major arrive for elegance. When mixed with division of labor, specialization allows for main(prenominal)tenance of fairness and suppose. In such(prenominal) societies duties and responsibilities be stated, for example in political structure we set protrude the roles of the chairman affirmed a nd written in the constitution because cardinal has guidelines to substantiate with. The leader has to collapse subject to rule, its non possible to give way rulers if you take in no people to rule, hence need for structured association whereby people ar obligingized and are fitted to live unitedly in harmony.Law and order is very decisive in such societies (Owen, 1997). Christiano (2004) observes that when we live within the jurisprudence, we share in the common redeeming(prenominal) which helps all, and provides for a better world to grow and live in. But In Aristotelean scholasticism, ethical motive which are the arse for law of nature are understood to humble the science for commodity life (Barford, 1996). In the same context, man is regarded as rational animal and therefore equal to(p) to act in concord with the right reason and also able to act justly and courageous.As members of the confederacy, we are supposed to come together and advance based on the l aws of the confederacy we live in. Reilly (2000) thinks that conversancy was necessary for revolution only when utilise like a guiding rule, he emphasized that independence of for each unmatched psyche must be respected. However, according to him total freedom for all cannot exist as a basis of the society. For one someone to have entirely autonomy over another person, the other person impart have to give up their freedom to allow the bounder to survive.When people move from their tribal clique, races to join new people in the work places for example town, they are said to undergo purification which is a delay process which started long epoch ago more than 5000 years ago (Jessop, 1998). Civilization aims positive competition where everyone will do his best to be on the top of other ladder, sparkle. Civilized People are able to live together irrespective of their social background it has increased institutionalise amidst individuals to an limit that people are able to collect each other whenever a neighbor go astray, therefore togetherness in the comm whiz. ingrained law is viewed by many philosophers as the instrument used in the exploration of gods will. As Martin, (1999) explains, inhering law is different from theology, in that it does not rely fully on supernatural law or revea lead sources only on empirical evidence concerning tender existence and nature. Natural law is a source of social norm in the society. It provides the basis for honorable arranging in different religious group. According to Owen (1997), in any(prenominal) setting of the society and religion, all share the common frame work of natural law.Looking at the process of absorbing social norm, members of a society utilize socialization and education to distinguish between the sizable and the evil. Social norms are based on benignant nature and are important convections required to achieve social stability. The major objective of natural law is to make or sustain soc ially valued roles for people in their society, in case where an individual holds valued social roles, one is highly likely to receive in return those good things in life that are obtainable in that society hence the society always a way of paying those people who adhere to its norms.In additional all sorts valued things that other people are able to pass on are almost involuntarily accorded to a person who holds societal appreciated roles, at least within the resources and norms ones society. (Barford, 1996). Most human being societies have adopted certain societal norms which result any from ethics or from intrinsic ideas. But according to Young, (2003), consequences are that they partially result to human societies being unable to forbid impunity. Eventually, serious tensions picks in the society that may lead to societys demolition.Men in general learn to differentiate between good and evil with learning and socialization. Through reason, a man is able to distinguish between w hat is unacceptable and what can be accepted in a ill-tempered society. Some norms are vital for social stability and in this virtuoso such norms are based on human natural history, they are conventions that we need to have a stable society. Therefore society norms and ethics have a major role in setting the society free from disorder (Barford, 1996).If law totally breaks down, then society is worse off than before (Owen, 1997). Socrates seed in this statement and totally refused to break the law. He wondered what kind of citizen he will be if he refused to accept the command of the jury. In addition Reilly (2000) in his book the social organization of at once are dissimilar from the primary civilizations in that primitive cultures depended on unity of people to live. However currently everyone depends on cash inform of warning(prenominal) value and it has established the same as the common good.According to Kibuka (2000), the society without cash would work mainly because it goes against individual nature. No matter how sure and accountable people are civilized, people always need a reward. He continue to express criticism that without the reward everything will have no value hence the world will still be far away from civilization. In his book Reilly (2000) argues that an operational, liberated and just society must rest on a basic principle.Right liberty cannot be real for all, unless the civil liberties of all are valued by all, these right can be liberty and the pursuit of happiness. According to Karl Marx, order is highly important for the organization and for maintenance of all human societies and to bring about civilization. He said the higher rank of order a society achieves, the more superior the society tends to be unable to beat order and indeed the more chaotic it become (young, 2003). Marx contradicts with Reilly (2000) who conception civilization goes hand in hand with law and order in the system.He points out that through the period o f anarchy and revolution a society mainly lack order and therefore becomes chaotic. Both Marx and Reilly (2000) however gather on the same thoughts that societies have a lot of the attributes of the united system through swapping matter and energy to their surroundings as they add to their order specialization tend to develop. The world is an island and therefore we all need each other to survive and we communication which is the key to the organization and development of all human societies this involves use of words and symbols.Its therefore very vital to have a pattern of value, order and norms so that law and order will be maintain in a society this explains why in a structured society there is need for law and order. In addition order and pattern is the core of social union and affair (Cohen & Arato, 2001). Karl Marx quoted that though much energy is put in a society to maintain order, change is unavoidable hence he believed that every society can be destroyed if unity is no t maintained by law and order (Young, 2003).At this juncture, Marx was in agreement with (Reilly 2000) who argued out that for there to be order in the society we need law to be followed for law and orders go hand in hand. Reilly (2000) believed that rational societies were structured to attain goals flexibly and were able to meet the test of time therefore adjusting for better. In what I regard as the major achievement of the innocent and Roman Empires, the ancient Grecian empire has contributed a lot to civilization of the westernerly. Since inception the Hellenic philosophy, it has continued to shape the whole of Hesperian thought impacting on modern philosophy and modern science (Jessop, 1998).Although many philosophers believe that neither inquiry nor the reason began with the ancient Greeks, the Socratic methods together with his ideas of form are entirely from the Greek. Socrates who was the teacher for Plato was an Athenian philosopher who believed that a person shoul d touch always to do well. He emphasized that one should always know you and he was known for disobeying the bad command (Barford, 1996). Aristotle and Plato work forms the major philosophies that have greatly influenced the westbound philosophy.The Greeces were very good in art, history, art and science which many countries including western countries borrowed to shape their growth of civilization. All these cultures begun with what is known as golden age of Greece its the time of cultural successfulness peace and time of law and order in Greece. More so myths, Olympics, democracy rule of law all originated in Greece. Greeks had a very rich culture which influenced western civilization. The most noted was mainly their philosophy and its culture which dictates their rich norms and values (Hefner, 1998).Greek scientist do radical discoveries in several fields like in mathematics, physics, medicine, biology and astronomy. This forms part of the reason why Greek civilization is st ill regarded as mother of discoveries. On addition it was early in Greeks where commercial merchandise post and colonies were founded this led to the growth of trade which in turn led to adoption of septic alphabetical scrip. These scripts led to the development of the subject mathematic. The Greek had several enemies who wanted to conquer them.The conflicts with the Persians did not only make the Greek Empire become very strong but also allowed establishing a very strong form of establishment which favored specialization (Hefner, 1998). To an extent ancient Greece affected civilization of the west with politics, this is because the Greece was the first to establish the antiauthoritarian systems. Laws as its in many western countries laws were voted on and proposed outright by the assembly of all citizens therefore Greece offered a form of government which is used by the western countries including the US.A form of government which has the decision maker branch, the judicial b ranch and the judicial branch began with the Greece and later borrowed by the west. Greece was the first to realize the important of sports and make sport their tradition hence the first Olympic was held there. Surprisingly, up to date the western countries still compete on the same sports which were held on the first Olympics (Martin, 1999). For ancient Roman, Engineering was a main issue influencing western civilization. Nowadays the Greek technologies are used to strain bridges, harbors and roads were buildings in the west.Cohen and Arato (2001) express no doubt that civilization of the west has been shaped and largely based on Greeces powerful politics, philosophers, medics, sports and classical art. The society has played a big role in the dodge of law, in order to advance the concept of the common good. The common good was crucial to normative vision of what can be regarded as good life during the time of the Greek moral philosophy that formed the basis of western thought. T he common good entails grasping idea that a person as sacred and social.Common good is based on dread that human rights and dignity together with well being and human possible are achieved in ones moral ecology. On the other hand it is the social justice that orients the moral action to the common good. either person in the society who is dedicated to the quality of life and to the well being of every body gives in to the common good of all since. Plato asserted that in a just society, citizen bestowed themselves to the common good, act virtuously and wisely, and practices the occupation they are best suited.Aristotle contrary to that recommended that a state should be governed by middle class, because he thought that they are likely to argue for fairness of the common good. Moreover he stressed that an individual depends on the society in order to survive a truly human life, and even that the state is a natural creation that precedes a person (Owen, 1997). As per St. Augustine, he diverted the natural law of society from one based on reason to one based on overlord rule.In his argument, St Augustine Hefner (1998) apprehends God and churches as the vital base of civic virtue, law and order of the social order. Therefore religion is very important in shaping human destiny, for church offers laws and ethics to be followed. Its societys role to come out with guidelines for defining what is norm and what is right. It is also the society role in general to mold its own people. It has a function of maintaining law and order hence protecting its people. Jessop, (1998) asserts that the main function of civil society is to compel human beings to respect one anothers rights.Civilization can be achieved only when the civil societies in the western countries protect its members to pursue diverse interest at the same time the political parties striving to guide the members towards party goals. Nevertheless, many philosophers predict that the western civilization is on the verge of collapsing. Cohen and Arato (2001) attribute the collapse to invasion of the west culture by other cultures. Although, the west citizens are slowly rejecting their lodge culture, they still hold some sense of commitment towards it.
