Crisis of the Republic

It is stupid to call unexpected and unpredictable happenings as random events. They help to clear theory but remove it further from reality. They have appearance of truth because they take evidence from recognizable trends but they neglect our common sense.

Violence has always played enormous role in the human affairs.  Violence and its arbitrariness has been taken for granted and neglected. Violence has been a marginal phenomenon in the past records. It is haphazard and not serious and precise. Political or economic continuity preceded the violent action. Military resolution in discord with deeper cultural sources of national power could not be stable. Wherever the power structure of country contradicts its economic development the political power with means of violence will suffer defeat.

Today all the old truths about the relation between war and politics or about violence and power are not applicable. War itself is the basic social system within which other secondary modes of social organization conflict or conspire.Peace is the continuation of war.
