How an Anomic Society a Harmful Threat to a country?

 Anomic Society is known as a society where the standards of conduct and values are virtually absent. Due to such cases, society ends up becoming prey to several issues. Also the people of society are are different because they use various methods to fulfill their respective needs. This is why such societal anomie also leads to a sense of distress and a lack of sense of purpose. Which in turn seeks to threaten a country's legitimacy.

Conditions and Conflicts:

As we have noted in several countries, some anomic societies suffer from routine necessities such as living space or other unsanitary conditions. These include slums, poor residences, etc. Countries like Pakistan and India, where unsanitary issues such as shortage of water, electricity, and dirty water or garbage spilled around are also a factor in the development of an anomic society. Because they are not provided the basic or there is no system of governing an issue. In some cases, conflicts also happen on daily basis in an anomic society. Since there are no cultural values and standards developed, there is no way to resolve these conflicts.



Natural Areas of Crime

Anomic society, aside from these, is also a natural environment for crimes such as graffiti, drug abuse, arms trafficking, etc. In many countries, the criminals use anomic society as headquarters to operate in disguise. Even the residents such as juveniles or teenagers, happen to do business with these criminals to earn money by illegal methods. which in turn leads to the theme becoming one of them. This is due to there being no proper values or norms to govern a society. Criminals often escape from one society to another and remove all of their records from society. Crimes such as homicide and burglary also happen in public with members of the society taking no proper action.

Abuse of Order

Abuse of Order is yet another element of an anomic society, as Durkheim noted, he has given an example of Greek Philosopher Socrates. Seen as a criminal for spreading the values to the society which they believed to maintain ethical behavior. People often abuse the order by manipulating the members of a society to follow the norms they have set up. Which people follow without even knowing whether these norms ensure social order. They end up falling for those mediocre values which in turn causes conflicts or various harmful events in society.

Conclusion

As the information provided below, states the reasons an anomic society is a threat for a country. With societal issues not resolved or norms not developed, society can turn rebellious. Which in turn becomes a natural headquarters for various crimes. The norms are also abused and manipulated by the members of society. As this chain continues, a country's development might have a reverse effect due to the presence of anomic societies. Which is also a cause of daily deaths and increasing crime rates or alcohol consumptions.

Does Freedom Really Benefit Us?

Freedom means you are allowed to do anything without any restriction. But is it really true? Give me a break. I mean if it really means free than why it also has a bad effect? That is another theory that tangles me in a web of thoughts. In the last one, I said that the freedom is a word that literally gives us the right to anything, but does that mean the bad things or acts are also allowed? Let me guess, is it right to kick out someone from the job Or is it right to shut down the sim of a particular phone.? If we are free to do anything, then why are you taking somebody's free will or livelihood away from them? It just makes me feel that the word makes you the boss of everything. You have the power to banish anyone from an organization or bury communications with a snap of your finger because you are free to do so. Are you really out of your mind or the word itself have corrupted you? Speaking of word corrupt, this brings us to the government. Why is it not solving our problems? W...

Did The Cable Guy Just Foreshadow The Future 25 years Ago?

It has been almost 25 years since Jim Carrey's 'The Cable Guy' came to theatres. But It seems that The Cable Guy just foretold the future we are living in today. Yes, I watched the movie 25 years after its initial release in 1996(though I was born three years later). There is a scene where Chip Douglas (Jim Carrey) sits with his customer(or presumably friend) on a huge satellite dish. He says this quote which in my mind means the world of social media and technology we are living in today. The Future is now. Soon Every American Home will integrate their television, phone and computer. You'll be able to visit the Louvre on one channel, or watch female wrestling on the other. You can do your shopping at home, or play Mortal Kombat with a friend from Vietnam. There is no end to the possibilities. Jim Carrey in The Cable Guy, 1996 No end to the possibilities indeed. The Cable Guy just described the world of possibilities we are living in. People can shop from home ...
