Some writers regard the State as a power-system and exalt power, coercion and violence as the ends of the State. They subordinate the rights and freedom of the individual to this end. They declare that the will of the State is supreme over the wills of the individuals. They regard the exercise of power as the characteristic expression of the State and coercion as the primary condition of social control and organisation. Ancient Sparta, Napoleonic France, Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany are examples of States which made power and domination their main aims and ends. Such a view of the State is based old belief that it is the “natural law that the strong rules.” Modem German writers are the most outspoken in defining State as a power-organisation.<\/p>
