Lawlessness (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

anarchy

rioting

'lawlessness' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for anarchy that I've seen before include "Collapse of order, rule" , "State of civil disorder" , "without structure" , "State of lawlessness and disorder" , "Society without government or law, chaos" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Mirror, The Guardian, The Sun, the Universal and The Sunday Times.
