Discussion- Good society

Everyone has an opinion on what constitutes a decent society. However, by combining different

viewpoints, we may be able to create a civilization that benefits humanity. We'd figure out what

circumstances are necessary for a happy existence. Physical well-being of the populace,

protection, judgment, and human liberties are the four fundamental tenets of society

construction. Our classes have taught us that various philosophers have offered their own

perspectives on the elements that make up a successful society. Few of the many who have

learned from their own experiences why contemporary forms of administration are unsuitable for

the individual include Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, Hobbes, and Locke.

A good society or wealthy society is one where everyone is treated fairly. For example, “All

human beings are created equal, but we are not treated equally” (Held, 2016). All of this serves

to show how frequently people are treated unfairly and how, in a civilized society, everyone

should be treated equally regardless of differences. To build a more robust and contented

community, people must come together. In addition, education is crucial to the success of

society. For instance, “ When people are educated, they can significantly contribute to their

families and society in various aspects and fields, thus creating a stable and stimulating

community” (10 Benefits Showing Why Education). This shows how important it is to give

everyone access to education so they can live comfortably. All medical facilities around the

world operate in the same manner. Including access to health care as if it were a right. Last but

not least, a thriving society requires world peace. For instance, “Without peace, it will not be

possible to achieve the levels of trust, cooperation and inclusiveness needed for societies to be

resilient to shocks, manage disputes and adapt to changes in their environments”. This

demonstrates how a peaceful society would make life easier in general. People would be able to

trust the government, in particular, and readily back it in every decision it made. Additionally, it

stops new issues from arising and produces a perfect society in which people can live happily

and stress-free.
