The primary function of law is to maintain social order by regulating behavior and providing a framework for resolving disputes.

External social control is not a type of social control. Formal social control refers to the use of laws and regulations to regulate behavior, informal social control refers to the use of social norms and customs to regulate behavior, and internal social control refers to the individual's own conscience and values that regulate their behavior.

Formal social control is enforced by the government through laws and regulations, while informal social control is enforced by social norms and customs.

Being ostracized by your community for breaking a social norm is an example of informal social control, as it is a form of social pressure that is not enforced by the government.

Law is a form of social control because it is a set of rules that are enforced by the government in order to regulate behavior and maintain social order.

Promoting economic growth is not a function of law. The primary function of law is to maintain social order by regulating behavior and providing a framework for resolving disputes.

Civil law deals with disputes between individuals, such as contract disputes and personal injury cases, while criminal law deals with crimes against society, such as murder, theft, and assault.

A lawsuit between two companies over a breach of contract is an example of a civil law case because it is a dispute between individuals.

A criminal trial for murder is an example of a criminal law case because it is a crime against society.

The purpose of punishment is to deter crime, rehabilitate criminals, and protect society from criminals.

Imprisonment, fines, probation, and community service are all types of punishment.

A crime is a violation of a law, which is a set of rules that are enforced by the government, while a tort is a violation of a social norm, which is a set of rules that are enforced by social pressure.

Negligence is an example of a tort because it is a violation of a social norm, such as the duty to take reasonable care to avoid causing harm to others.

Law can promote social change by creating new rights and opportunities for individuals and groups, it can hinder social change by maintaining the status quo, and it can be neutral with respect to social change by simply regulating behavior without taking a position on the underlying social issues.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 are all examples of how law can promote social change by creating new rights and opportunities for individuals and groups.
