Order Today

Order is definitely a value that society holds dear today. One example on the macro-level would be our government. Our government is set up to make society orderly by making sure that power is evenly dispersed. There is the power of the people and then the power of the government and bureaucracy. Checks and balances are set in place so that one particular entity has too much power. Another example of "order" would be law enforcement e.g. police, constables, sheriffs and the judicial systems. These institutions were created specifically so that there would be order and justice (another value that complements order). If we didn't have these positions and systems then we would have no order.
