Power and authority constrain the individual in a(n)______ state.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hierarchical state refers to a system of authority where power is concentrated at the top and flows downwards. This kind of state curbs individual autonomy and liberty as power and authority are concentrated in the hands of a few people or institutions. An anarchical state would be one where there is no central authority, and chaotic states would be marked by disorder and confusion, which would also limit individual freedom. Transformative states are those that are marked by significant changes in the political, social, or economic structure, but it is possible that these changes could result in either greater or lesser constraints on individual liberty, so it is not a clear answer.
