We live in diverse societies. It is normal for people to disagree about many things, including religion and politics, but acceptance of the ___ keep situations from becoming violent.

A. constitution

B. legitimacy of rule

C. legal charter

D. rule of law

The correct answer is D. Rule of law.

Explanation:

The rule of law is a set of restrictions on the state's exercise of power over its own citizens, but also a set of obligations that each citizen has as a member of society. It means, among other things, that public power is exercised on the basis of law and that there are constitutional guarantees that set limits on the state's use of force, and on the liberties and rights of individuals, in order not to harm each other.

Therefore, this principle works as a framework of conduct that regulates life in society, preventing differences between individuals from turning into serious conflicts, and punishing with criminal law those behaviors harmful to this principle.
