Law and Order

In the book One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Nurse Ratched is a prime example of law and order. Law and order is control. I'll explain it by saying that in the asylum all of the patients lives are controlled. They have no say in how thy live. Nurse Ratched has rules and the only point of most rules is for Nurse Ratched to display her control over the patients’ lives. Rules range from music constantly remaining on in the main hangout room, the staff members not being allowed to eat with patients, and the toothpaste being locked away as if it could be used as a weapon or a way of escaping. 

I see law and order in the real world today. the government, although not totally controlling, has a sense of law and order on today's society. an example of this is laws like wearing a seatbelt or even banning certain substances. Law and order is a way to keep people in check.
