Government often claims monopoly of force, that-is the biggest and only gang in a region. Our technologies of government only intersects with some aspects of life. This infrastructure of justice for example only maintains that grip if it can produce a narrative of consistency, any change probably invokes fears of the loss of monopoly of force, because it inevitably leads to the (sometimes temporary) necessity of self-organisation or self-government, which can be scary in the example of justice production.
