- nature vs character -


"Macbeth shall never vanquish'd be until
 Great Birnam wood to high Dunsinane hill
 Shall come against him." 
 (Shakespeare: Macbeth)

The moving trees in Macbeth symbolize restoring of natural order. In philosophy, the natural order is the moral source from which natural law seeks to derive its authority. It encompasses the natural relations of beings to one another, in the absence of law, which natural law attempts to reinforce.

In contrast, divine law seeks authority from God, and positive law seeks authority from government.

Other names to refer to the same thing as for natural order include "ordered anarchy," "private property anarchism," "anarcho-capitalism," "autogovernment," "private law society," and "pure capitalism."
