The authority of the State is more than a necessary tool of guardianship; it is the necessary condition for freedoms. Individuals are born into and are legitimized by the State as authentic situations and subjective individuals.

There is no freedom nor any individual before the State, only the binding force and authoritative standards of the State capable of ordering society and establishing the subjective positions of individuals.
