题目材料：
A central question in comparative politics is whether or not the state is necessary, a question that can be answered empirically in the negative on the evidence that some societies have no state. Stateless societies, however, are characterized by political processes; for that reason they can be said to share to a more or less degree some of the features of states. A more useful and accurate assertion than the empirical is that "stateness" is a quality that prevails in more or less quantity or intensity in all human communities. If one is concerned with the values of security, material well-being, the maintenance of social order, and risk-sharing, one must conclude that more stateness is better than less. On the other hand, when one is concerned with equality, freedom, justice, and self-esteem, one concludes that less stateness is better than more. Certainly none of these values can be discussed intelligibly without some degree of assumption of stateness.
