We need social contract.
Many a philosopher discussed
social contract, the need to submit our sovereignty for security. Without social contract, we are left in the
state of nature, where every man for himself.
A jungle with no law. A
jungle where there are no comforts and man fight like beast over trifling matters. We
need the right to sleep at night in peace without trespass by neighbor or state. We
need to be able to conduct daily business of contributing to the economy and
consumption without fear of trespass by neighbor or state. For
this security and peace, we all need to submit our individual sovereignty and
adhere to global social contract. Thou shall not kill has already been discussed
earlier as a basic law. No war is just. Whether it be or not a legitimate reason behind
the conflict, conflict by means of weapons, and resulting in death is
unacceptable. Whether it be a petty drug deal gone wrong or
a religious conflict or a political ideological debate turned wrong, violence
is not the answer. As the legendary Gandhi preached non-violence
and resolved a major problem of imperial rule that lasted for centuries, the
core valve of this dissertation is adherence of a strict policy of
non-violence.
Everyone has the freedom to follow whichever religion they
wish and enjoy their freedom of speech. The philosophy of right thought and right
action is the basis of creating the rules considered appropriate by general
consensus. I will not spell out each and every law
applicable to establish social contract.
That can be up to the elders of
our civilization to discuss, debate and vote for the rest of the lay what is
deemed acceptable. It will be democratic. As
there are inadequacies by a certain percent of the population to be able to
reason, not all members of society will vote.
However the selected ministers of
each constituent will have a team of council representatives to liaise with the
community and recommend on suitable laws that are appropriate for the given
situation and conditions of that time and place, giving utmost importance to
preserve culture of indigenous and ethnic groups. This
is the way of life. There has to be a little give and a little
take. A slight compliance to a reasonable condition
to enjoy the luxurious available from all over the globe for everyone in the
world. Submit individual sovereignty of trespass upon
another and enjoy the right of security from trespass by another.
