    I’m not as well read on the topic but I would say that any society of humans working together would require some form of resolving dispute - provided that the individuals it concerns cannot come to terms on their own.

    With the freedom of pure imagination, I can see a society that lives freely where needs are met if possible by those who can and are willing to meet them. In line with utopian imagination, no one desires to exert power over others (unless in consensual and temporary scenarios) so relationships and collaboration are done with a spirit of purpose/being rather than what one will get in exchange.

    Is that practical? Not at face value, because even the best intentioned people make mistakes: in the misinterpretation of what was communicated, or unintentionally overstepping what is comfortable. Both of those can be addressed through healthy and empathetic communication, which is a style accessible to all humans. So I could see a society that openly communicates on all sorts of things and clears their relationships by acknowledging when one’s self has a “pebble in my shoe” feeling of something to address.
