This work is an example for the use of computer simulation for testing theory completeness. The multi-agent model Dreamscape is a transformation of the Rational Choice Theory into a computer program. In this work the general applicability of the Rational Choice Theory is tested. The research question is: Does social order emerge out of the "state of nature"? In particular: Do social norms evolve? In a computer-based analysis for non-violent agents it is shown, that conjunct, proscriptive norms are able to emerge – apart from their legitimacy. On the contrary, in a violent population social order does not emerge.
