In society, law is not something which comes from somewhere outside the boundaries of the society.It is in-fact is an innate idea of the society. The law reflects the norms of the society and is what according to the society is good, equitable and just.

Every society has its own laws, and these laws changes with the change in the norms of the society.

Law is required in society for mainly three reasons

1)to regulate people's behaviour in accordance with the the norms of the society.(Regulatory laws, prohibition laws, contract laws, personal laws,etc)
2)to balance the harm done by the offender against the individual and society at large.
3)To collect and generate revenue from the masses(taxation laws)

Explanation:

In society, law is needed for major reasons:

To govern the behaviour of people in accordance with society's norms including contract laws, regulatory laws, prohibition laws, personal laws etc. To balance the damage done by the victim against the person and society in general.

Laws protect our general safety, and ensure our rights as citizens against abuses by other people, by organizations, and by the government itself. We have laws to help provide for our general safety. These exist at the local, state and national levels, and include things like:

  • Laws about food safety.
  • Speed limits and traffic laws exist so that we drive in a safe manner.
  • Licensing for doctors and nurses ensures proper training of the people who look after us, and who often have our lives in their hands.
  • Laws that protect us from discrimination because of our race, gender, age, or because of a disability

hope it's helpful to you dear...
