This is too black and white what you are describing.

When it comes to violations of sovereignty (violence & coercion), there is only black and white. Either you are initiating force against someone else, or you are not.

every club, famliy, corporation and whatever reocuring social or economic gathering must have rules

Agreements are necessary in order to not have resentments & misunderstandings, I agree.

that are based on "force & coercion"

Why? Why could you and I not agree to something voluntarily instead of me forcing it upon you, or vice-versa?

I would also add some sort of hierarchy.

Again, I agree with the premise that hierarchy is often going to occur, though it should always be temporary, organic, and voluntary. Example: If the plumbing at our community is exploding , obviously the person who has the most experience dealing with plumbing would go to the top of the "plumbing hierarchy".

A society without rules

Rules can be voluntary, and just because you have rules does not mean you have to have rulers.

Those rules can be given implicitly (usually family and friends) or explicitly (when it's about an utility) and why would that not include taxes (or something that has a different name but works the same way )?

Explicit or implicit, the issue is whether or not it is voluntary or founded on aggression.

I would also strongly disagree that history didn't know centers.

The wonderful thing about "history" is that it's all hearsay, there's no way to know what actually happened, especially since so much of it has been translated, changed by people with personal interests, or lost entirely (hidden by the Vatican, burnt with the Library of Alexandria or the many sackings of Rome, etc).

Also, most of human existence was pre-history, pre-agriculture, pre-villages (much less states)

This again means, it won't be allowed, you just can't abolish sociopaths.

The wonderful thing about sociopaths is that they are the most predictable of all humans. They are ALWAYS going to do whatever will make them "successful" and appear "normal". Change the cultural norms, what is considered "success", and you change the behavior of sociopaths.

Monopolies cannot be dismantled as well.

Why not?

Or should we try with Saudi oil?

Stop buying it.

Yes, and you are enabling them.

You are empowering them, I am actively not participating with them, not giving them my energy (time, labor, attention, or otherwise)

Politics can also not be abolished.

They don't need to be abolished, they are simply a manifestation of the inherent violence in hierarchical systems.

If politics wasn't needed and the market could fix all problems, no-one would have invented politics.

Politics are only needed to make a subservient class think that they are not simply being ruled by one group of people.
