How would a Solarpunk society handle law enforcement and military? (lemmy.ml)

I mean, let's be honest: People do crimes even when they have no material need to do so, so you will always need some form of law enforcement, how should a solarpunk society handle this?

The same is true for a military: As long as there is no world peace or some magical way to shut the outside world out, and as long as other societies exist somewhere nearby (and in today's world this means somewhere on the same planet), a society needs the means to defend itself... what would this look like?

A while back I started a discussion on the anarchist community looking for some similar discussion - some of the answers there might be useful:
