LET US ENHANCE
Activity # 8: Essay.
Imagine the world without socio-cultural and political institutions. What do
you think will happen?

- For me, the world might survive without socio-cultural and political institutions but
society cannot. For society to exist it needs to have structure and to have
structure it needs to have organization, to have organization it needs to have
institutions which operate for the benefit of the people and ensure social
cohesion. Under which all are supposedly equal under the law. Furthermore,
society cannot survive without social institutions. Social interaction is necessary
as we say, “human beings are social animals”. Our life is clearly interdependent
on each other. We depend on each other for our needs. We do need a social
platform to address our problems, to express our ideas. If social institutions are
not present there there will be less interaction between the people and there will
be a limit to the range of ideas that will limit the extent of development. We can
survive without social institutions, but we cannot live our life without them.
