ORIGIN STATE CHAPTER 1

When did science arise State (thinking about the State and the law)? The existence of thinking about the State and the law is not in conjunction with the preceding, so he emphasized the idea of State and the law is not as old as the age of the start of the State. Long before the concept of State and the law, the State has been there, we remember for instance the existence around the seventeenth century before Masahi, with a very absolute system of government.
But besides that in the era of awakening of human civilization is also the king of kings which guarantees the rights of its citizens. The king who did so presumably is the king of Babylon named Chammurabi who ordered around the year 1800 BC the famous unite the country which was originally divided.
If the above is said that the idea of State and the law is not as old as the existence of the State itself, then what can be explained that in ancient times (Ancient), king of kings ruled with absolute arbitrary executions because of its power, people did not get questioned about the State, why certain people who were in power, while the others are subject, what was the ruling power base and so forth. The lack of opportunity that he asserted that at that time people did not have the freedom to megeluarkan thoughts and opinions freely.
But nevertheless we not assume that the ancient jama science does not yet exist, such as astronomy, medical science, science ethics, philosophy, science, etc. shipping. But self-knowledge as it is known that people today do not exist, let alone a regular and systematic. Because in ancient times it all just confused speech, such a philosophy of science talk about yes, yes decency, health yes, yes shipping and so forth. Moreover, the state of science as we speak today, the light does not exist. In ancient times, there is no questioning the science of state all the circumstances the State. Because this is a science that contain the danger to the power of its rulers and to threatening the status and authority of the State authorities. Though the ruling on the primeval is that its power is absolute ruler, arbitrarily determine one's life and death. So mastering all facets of life in the State, whether life is lahiriyah (worldliness), and the life that is religious. Thus it is not surprising if penguaa were then pressed, prohibits any thoughts about the State and the law.
So therefore it concerns a matter of state science authority of the ruler, the basic authority of the ruler, then science kenegaraaan or thinking about the State and the law, can only arise and develop, if the composition kenegaraanya, kemasyarakatannya already allow the existence of freedom of thought and of expression. Remember that science could only arise and thrive when the freedom of thought and of expression, freedom is very dependent on the method or system pemeritahan State.
If the thought of the State and the law did not precede or simultaneously with the State or the formation and growth of civilization, because it is a social phenomenon (social phenomenon), which manifest themselves after long centuries after the State or civilization exists, then the idea of a new State and the law we will see it in place (at State), where ketatanegaraanya system provides the possibility for citizens to freely spend seecara thoughts and opinions, critically. This situation, according to state history, occurred early in the nation's first ancient Greece in its fifth century BC that is in Athens. So the nation was the first greek coolies, FE thing to start thinking about the State and held a law, so, their freedom of thought and of expression critically and honestly starting in ancient Greek nation. What then is presumably the cause of such circumstances? Many factors influencing factor, namely;
1. the nature of religion that is not God's teachings mengelan defined as Rule (ancient)
2. Geographical situation of that State which mejuruskan to trade and overseas sehigga greek nation could meet and exchange ideas with other nations.
3. form of his country, namely democracy republic, so that the people govern themselves little with the responsibility.
4. greek national consciousness as a whole.
5. all that makes the people of Greece as the experts thought and stateless persons.
