In the absence of government, what would determine the way people act towards each other?

They harmed each other.

Explanation:

If there is no government present in our society then the people act wildly towards each other because the government provides peace and harmony with the help of laws and regulations. If these laws disobeyed by the people so the government punishes that people in order to make example for others. So if the government is not present, there is no law and the people act wildly and harm each other.
