正文: With the explosive development of science and technology, the well-being of a society is being put at an crucial status. When it comes to the influence on the well-being of a society when people question authority, a lot of different opinions are held by different individuals. Will the well-being of a society enhance when many of its people question authority? Admittedly, in many aspects the people's questioning are benefit for the society. However, the excessive questioning by its people may get side effects to the well-being of a society.
To begin with, it is accurate that people question authority means there are problems in the society now. The problems have already got negative influence on the welfare of people at the same time. Without solving the problems quickly, there would be even more questions among the people after a long period. Moreover, only people really care about the society and the authority really intend to help the people improving the welfare, could the people question authority which reflected the belief for authority. Thus it will make a virtuous cycle for the whole society and in this way the well-being of the society can be enhanced through people question authority. Thinking about the opening and reforming policy of China, at that time people question authority for whether it can improve their's welfare, because many citizens cannot make a basic living in that period. Knowing about this question, authority solved the question by practicing the reforming policy and it really worked brilliantly.
Furthermore, some questions would help change the society greatly. Some questions by people will promote the changing of the authority, thus the authority can be more nearly to the perfect. The positive changing of authority can also make great effects on the whole society, and the increasingly development of society will enhance the well-being of the society. Just like the revolution by Shen Chen and Guang Wu or the storming of the Bastille both changed and promoted the development of the society in China and France. The latter better societies made their people had a better life.
However, if many people excessively question authority, it will make bad influence on authority. The more questions by its people, the more suspects among the society. Thus the increasing number of people would conclude the questions were caused by authority. It will definitely affect the stability of authority. The instability would result in armed rebellions. Once the conflict is happening, what's the worst victims from this? Absolutely the answer is people. History see many examples about conflicts and wars, such as American Civil War, people all lived in a miserable life during the war. In this situation, the well-being of a society cannot enhance, or even be undermined.
In summary, the well-being of a society will be enhanced when many of its people question authority in many aspects, yet the excessive question will deteriorate the society. |
