To speak of an act aimed at achieving good is to acknowledge the possibility of failure; indeed, as Plato observes in The Republic, the effort to realize an intention in the practical order is always incomplete in some respect. For this reason, politics never aims solely at establishing order, but also, fundamentally, at managing disorder. [...] This problem, that of defining politics as a purely practical effort to manage disorder, has taken many forms throughout history: from a certain interpretation of Augustine's City of God, to Machiavelli, to modern social contract theory, to Weber's definition of sovereignty as the monopoly on coercive power, and to Carl Schmitt's assertion that politics is based on the distinction between friend and enemy.
