WHAT IS LAW? (25ТМДВ1-О КАВЕРИНА АНАСТАСИЯ ИНОСТРАННЫЙ ЯЗЫК ДОКЛАД):

Some human beings could be appropriately described as weak-willed animals. They can easily be influenced by the first smell of money or power. This is due to an insatiable desire to please. The desire to be a success can cause even the strongest of wills to lose their heads. What have we heard from childhood when numerous "heroes" lost their way towards the glory of their times because of greed?

Our main goal in life has been to achieve peace and harmony throughout our life. A utopian society envisions an ideal world where people can govern themselves. They trust one another blindly. They find happiness. They set goals, follow a strict lifestyle and succeed in whatever they have set their sights on. They can be the best version of themselves and, at the same time, feel secure about it.

This idea, unfortunately, is based on an idealized world that is almost incompatible with the present-day world. The real world of our society is a diverse mix of different kinds of people. People who seek to disrupt the harmony of the natural community. Law is crucial in restoring the delicate balance to society and in making the lives of those living together harmonious. Law assists in maintaining the morality of people in their individual lives as well as the whole society.

WORLD WITHOUT LAW:

Imagine an environment without any laws to penalize the guilty. Let us suppose that the community has, until the present lived a life of integrity with no ordeal. Imagine that a person steals a precious item from a neighbor's home out of desperation. The person isn't penalized, but everyone knows what he's committed. Someone naive, perhaps a child, sees this and may be enticed to steal since he is aware that there is no consequence. It becomes an endless chain that threatens fundamental principles of society.

Another scenario could be an emergency scenario. A group of people is trapped on an island and have twenty days of water and food. They know that a rescuer will be there at the beginning of the day, the 20th day. They divide their food to ensure they have all the nutrition they require when they get rescued. Due to the desire to eat more, a person goes quietly and eats two days of food intended for the entire group. If the group learns of the incident, they go up against the individual who cleverly claims to them that no law or rule prohibits eating more. Because the group comprised well-educated women and men aged and young, they were aware that his argument was right, and they could not take any action to get the food returned. They were starving for two days. During this time, a few older adults became sick and couldn't recover.

Lawlessness allows one to challenge the fundamentals of society. It's against one's conscience. The fear of being punished isn't present, which helps the confidence that grows among the criminal that he or they can escape punishment for anything. This is a threat to the harmony of our society, causing an increasing number of people to adopt this behavior.

WHY IS LAW ESSENTIAL?

Law is a fundamental part of society. Law serves to help the people to live their lives without bloodshed and with tranquility and peace. Law can help us control our need for more power or money. It stifles our desire to be rich and reminds us that someone or something else is out there waiting to take our punishment if needed. It can help restore equilibrium in society and ensure justice for the victims. The best aspect of the law is that everybody is equal before it. There is no distinction between rich and poor under the eye of the law. No one has more power than others when it comes to the law. The law regulates the behavior of people. It helps to prevent us from falling into chaos.
