What reading level is The Moral Function of the State a Paper Read Before the Oxford Branch of the G book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


There are those who hold that States cannot affect the natural processes going on in Society and there are those who hold that they ought not to attempt this, if they could. It is curious how some who are fond of protesting against the belief in the State, with a large S, are so ready to throw themselves into the arms of Nature, with a very large N. If Nature be taken in so wide a sense as to include all human thought and effort, then the State is one of the manifestations of Nature which must
...be allowed its own capacities to struggle with the other natural forces. But if so, it is not logically justifiable to draw arguments from Nature against the State. If, on the other hand, the State be expressly excluded as artificial from our conception of Nature, what becomes of the advance we are supposed to have made from the ' mechanical ' to the ' organic ' way of regarding human institutions ?
To clear the way, we must first mark off a sense in which the State cannot make men moral. No moral act, strictly so-called, can be commanded by Law.
