B. Naturality of Survival Condition

 

 

The laws of nature underlie the conditions for human survival and activities. Even those with great power cannot escape death when subjected to a certain degree of shock, as human survival cannot surpass physical laws. Similarly, human survival and activities cannot surpass biological laws. Therefore, large-scale diseases caused by bacteria pose a threat to human survival and society, as seen in the medieval era in Europe, where diseases were so powerful that even nobility was not immune. Thus, it is clear that the laws of nature restrict social and political phenomena in various aspects and scales.

 

The political phenomenon, composed of diverse and complex human activities, is also constrained by natural phenomena and natural laws. These natural laws that restrict political phenomenon can also be introduced as principles that explain the political phenomenon. There can be various contents, but three similar to the three laws of classical mechanics in [Tab.1.3] are primarily useful.
