Abstract: | Consider a society composed of two hermits, each living distant from the other, with zero temptation levels and no rules. One morning, one of the hermits sneezes and breaks the silence. The hermits therefore create a rule against noise, and the same hermit keeps breaking it by sneezing; thus ending up subjected to sanctions. Even “crimeless” societies, such as the imaginary society of two hermits, have their own levels of crimes – and new crimes are constantly being acknowledged under new rules. |
