chaos the inherent unpredictability in the behavior of a complex natural system

All complex systems will have some chaos in them. But the idea that if law is not centralized by a state, that it cannot evolve privately, is something I cannot agree with.

You see chaos in free association and I see the locus of society and cooperation.

society will be chaos if everybody and everywhere at anytime would do anything they want to

No doubt.

And no one has advocated for anything close to that.

If you have legal regulation, then it is not total freedom or total liberty

Not true.

As long as the regulation is voluntarily agreed upon by all parties, then we are dealing with total liberty.

Liberty and freedom, as paradoxical as it seems, refer more to boundaries between people, establishing limits regarding what is just and what is not.

WHERE om earth did I even mention anything about central planning  :scared:

I thought the discussion we were having is one over the merits of a centrally planned legal system ,which is thought to be orderly, and a private or voluntary one, which is thought to be chaotic.
