If there should be no law there wont be peace, life will be so terrible. Anyone can do what he/she wish to do. Many will be wicked if there is no law, good people won't continue to be good because they may feel there is nothing to be good for. People who pay people for evil. I imagine how life will be if there is no law.
Well said. Society without law will be like jungle where only fittest survives and weaker is food of stronger. Thinking of lawless society reminds me of old movies where absence of any government creates anarchy and people would quickly form into mutual self-protection groups based on their loyalty to a powerful leader who they believe can protect them from any kind of disaster.

"Law" (or some kind of law) is eventually enforced by the masses. At that, society can be thought of as self stabilizing. Of course, if a given society lost, all of a sudden, any kind of control, there'd be chaos, but fortunately that doesn't happen: the descent into lawlessness takes years, sometimes decades. Before, when I said Argentina is a lawless place, I was joking, but I wasn't. In the name of democracy and "human rights" we have evolved (or "devolved") into a society that protects the victimizer instead of the victim. Then again, we didn't turn into a place where honest people became victims by default. On the contrary, honest people have just adapted and learned to defend ourselves, so now justice is not as "just", but it's much more swift, and some kind of law (some may say the "law of the jungle", which in any case is better than no law at all) prevails.
Some years ago, in one little town in Central America (it may have been Honduras, but I can't remember), a guy stole a chicken to eat, and the neighbors caught him. When the police from a nearby bigger town showed up, the neighbors had already killed him. Now, you may say that's savagery, maybe it is. But that town hadn't seen a single crime in over 44 years. How many towns in the world can say the same?

There are Law on every complex society, including other primates' societies. Law is not a human creation.
Custom is the way Law is created on non-human societies. Just think about rules on hierarchy between members.
The problem is not about Law or lack of it. The problem is about the way to enforce it.
Should we relay on a central system or should sanctions against illegitimate actions be imposed by society on a unorganized way?
We know that the old way of the victim to retaliate doesn't work since it promotes private wars.

I think Society with no law seems to be terrible. Because where there is no law there is no hope
There's always hope. Sometimes it's harder to find. To be able to connect, almost every day I have to walk about 9 blocks to the nearest Starbucks store, because there's no wi-fi where I live. Yesterday, when I was going back home, I almost got robbed. Nothing happened, as I caught the guy before he could even try, and I know how to deal with them. But the fact remains that, have it been anybody else, they would've been robbed in a heartbeat, and the situation would've probably looked hopeless. I see people walking around like zombies every day, and it pisses me off when they're robbed. But in most cases they could've avoided it just by paying attention.

What is life without law, how would the society be like without law. Would society still exist, take a look at all lawless act committed by individuals in the society, robberies, killings , corruption and so many bad act. Even with laws all this atrocities are being done as if there's no law. people are not been scared to commit crime in the society. They do not care or think of the consequences or result of the crime been committed. People enjoy lawlessness. How would this world be without laws , can it exist.
And there are laws, rules, regulations, ethics and norms,but then people then to do what's not good in their neighborhood. The rich takes what's for the poor with looking back, nor having a double thoughts over he's/her actions. For me there's no law, every man should be for himself/herself.

I believe there was a time were there were no laws in existence, where everyone was free to do whatever they wanted to do and what they felt right for them. Because people do not think alike, and people see different things as what is right, no one was wrong...I can only imagine how it was like living in such a time, but i bet it must have been really wild, no order and life was not assured. Laws were introduced to bring order to the society, and even if they are not completely obeyed by all, it is a standard of what is right in society, and what is wrong.

The country exist without law, yeah I'm tired such country is Nigeria my country home where the richare getting richer and the poor getting poorer where killings are taking place corruptions insecurity and Bandit and could you believe that our leaders are there sitting laughing and they don't do anything about it in my country Nigeria. So now I want to tell you I want you to believe now that there is a country without law exist. In fact there are so many people in my country Nigeria who are above the law including their families, friends, relatives, they will go scot-free if they do anything wrong. Reason why I told you all this is that if anything happen that that require Justice and He is one of them they will make sure the case does not end they will keep adjourned the case until the entire country self will be tired of sitting and waiting for the Justice rather they will forget about it and continue with their normal activities.

Man is by nature a social being, so he cannot live without laws, even if there are no written laws, there are laws that exist according to social norms and customs. I think that even in primitive societies, when man began to live jointly with other groups, there were laws that were innately recognized to preserve the survival of the group, with the development of human civilization and the complexity of relations, man began to establish laws to regulate the relations between members of society, without these laws no one can A society of continuing to live together, of course there will always be murder, robbery and other crimes even in the most civilized societies, but the existence of laws protects good people from such people who steal or kill. In short, it can be said that there is no life without law. A society in which there is no law turns into a society in which violence, murder and theft prevail, and there is the law of the jungle where the strong eat the weak.

Actually, that's not the case, or at least not when "society" is concerned. Man was born as a hunter-gatherer, and as that, they were nomads and very aggressive towards "foreigners". It was the development of the plow (first) and later of industry, that created society as we know it today. Of course there were "social norms" then, but most of what was considered "normal" then would be appalling today. A society in which there is no law turns into a society in which violence, murder and theft prevail, and there is the law of the jungle where the strong eat the weak.
Well, at least not in my experience. Sure, different countries may (and probably will) vary on this. I live in a country in which "law" has ceased to exist decades ago, and, while we've been overrun by criminals of all kinds, honest people are still a vast majority, and we're unwilling to let criminals take the whole country. Sure, it's difficult, and life is very far from what it is in any developed society, but to say it'd be "the law of the jungle" is a bit excessive.

For a society to be a society, there must be a law,rule,guildlines,principle that govern that entity,and it is these rules that makes the people stay United without crises.Any society that does not have rules and principles guilding them will suffer crises,war,system failure and lack of control by it citizens.
A lawless society is like a society exposed to danger,internally and externally.It is a society that lifes and properties will not be valued.A lawless society is a society where gangsterism will be practiced.

But still social primates. In fact, it took a long time for society to get rid of the animalistic tendencies in humans. Some would argue the general increase of intelligence as caused by a diet change acted as a catalyst for this process, but whatever the reason, the idea of tribalism still exists. It's innate. Rejection and aggression towards foreigners is self preservation mechanism, anything viewed as "foreign" is a threat to someone's safety or way of life.

Rejection and aggression towards foreigners is self preservation mechanism, anything viewed as "foreign" is a threat to someone's safety or way of life. Yeah, to a point. If you take "social" to the point as not to be a complete loner, then yeah, Homo Sapiens is (or was) "social". But there are different levels to "social". When Homo Sapiens was a hunter-gatherer, food was scarce, and any extra mouth to feed was objectively a threat to the survival of the group. Once the plow was discovered, Homo Sapiens became (with time) more and more sedentary, as their food source was much more stable, and it (obviously) didn't move. Soon enough, the group started facing a different problem: they didn't have enough hands to work the land. Then is when Homo Sapiens became truly social, and started welcoming people from other tribes/clans. It took millennia. THAT by itself prompted a huge improvement in the DNA heredity of humans (they started having kids with people from other clans/tribes, so conditions like Down's syndrome started to be more rare), and initiated all laws and regulations (and social customs) as we know them today, and ultimately was the sole initiator of crafts, industry and science, among others. All because of a little pointy piece of bone.
