That ‘moral’ order can be imposed or architected into a community is an illusion. Architecture is either sympathetic to the predominant moral order or it is not. In the latter case, it then needs reinforcement by the state (whose doom is hastened in proportion to its lack of sympathy).

A good example is copyright - an attempt by the co-opted state to persist a commercially oriented ‘moral’ order between publishers into one applying to society at large, that never actually existed.

There is no predominant moral order that constrains people in making copies of art to share with their friends.

Plagiarism bad, promotion good.

‘Thou shalt not copy’ was an economic artifice, and as an uneconomic artifice it shall end.

This quote made me think of Foucault’s “governmentality” - the idea that not only can the moral order be architected into the built environment, it can also be built into the way people think about and “govern” themselves.

So neat, clean and efficient - no need for bollards, just “techniques of the self”.
