An idea from Summa Theologica

A law is an ordinance of reason for the common good, made by him who has care of the community, and promulgated. Every part counts. A command with no reason behind it, or aimed at a private good, or never made known, falls short of law.

From Summa Theologica by Thomas Aquinas
