Chapter 1. Basic Principles
of Political Phenomena
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.
