The correct answer to the question is option 1, Herbert Spencer. Herbert Spencer was a British philosopher and social theorist who believed in the concept of individual liberty and limited government intervention. He argued that the existence of crime in society necessitates the presence of a State to establish laws, maintain order, and protect the rights of individuals. According to Spencer, without crime, there would be no need for a State as there would be no threat to the peaceful functioning of society. His views align with the idea that the primary purpose of the State is to regulate and control criminal behavior. It is important to note that while option 1 is the correct answer, the other options are also significant figures in political philosophy but did not specifically make this statement.
