Question

The ____ consists of those institutions that hold a monopoly on the legitimate use of force in society.

Answer 1

Answer:

State.

Explanation:

Weber asserts the legitimacy of the state is based on the prospect that citizens will obey its instructions as a legitimate source of power in his famous essay Politics as a Vocation. The modern public law is also influenced by this theory which states that the legitimacy of a state rests on the chance that those within it will, in principle, comply with all its commands. He also argues that state can be defined as a social system in which people are struggling with each other for what consequently represents a greater share of the power to execute legitimate force.
