Next-Generation Constitution
Preamble
We, the people of diverse communities-geographic, cultural, and ideological-united by a shared commitment to human dignity, equity, and ecological responsibility, establish this Constitution as a living document to uphold the inalienable rights of all individuals and promote the common good for present and future generations.
Mindful of humanity’s democratic evolution and ongoing struggles for justice, we seek to form a society where:
- Power flows from the people upward, ensuring governance remains accountable and participatory.
- Government structures protect the vulnerable while promoting liberty, autonomy, and opportunity for all.
- Natural resources and the environment are safeguarded as shared assets fundamental to life and cultural continuity.
- Conflicts are resolved through restorative principles, prioritizing reconciliation over punitive measures.
- Technological advancements serve the public good, ensuring transparency, privacy, and equitable access.
- Governance is continually evaluated and improved to meet the evolving needs of society.
- Civic education and public engagement ensure an informed, empowered population.
- Safeguards against authoritarianism and fascism ensure that power is never concentrated in a single entity or ideology.
- Economic and political structures are protected from corporate control and structural capture, ensuring genuine democratic plurality.
- Governance shall be transparent, decentralized, and adaptable, ensuring rights and responsibilities are upheld under shared principles of freedom, equity, and mutual care.
Foundations of Governance
Definitions & Interpretation
For purposes of this Constitution:
Community
A Community is a self-organizing, democratic body of residents formed by geographic proximity, cultural affinity, or shared purpose, that meets minimum rights and transparency requirements under this Constitution. Only Communities with defined geographic jurisdiction may exercise coercive public powers; non-territorial Communities may govern internal association matters only, and may not deny constitutional rights to residents.
A Community must adopt a public charter defining membership boundaries, decision procedures, fiscal transparency, and rights protections consistent with this Constitution.
A Community must provide equal political participation for Adult Residents within its jurisdiction and must not exclude eligible residents through discrimination, intimidation, or arbitrary procedures.
Community status may not be used to evade constitutional rights, oversight, or anti-capture rules.
Disputes as to Community status, boundaries, or compliance are subject to expedited review by the Federal High Court upon petition by affected residents or referral by the Public Review Commission.
Region
A Region is a federation of one or more Communities organized for coordination of infrastructure, environmental stewardship, public services, and dispute resolution at a scale larger than a single Community.
A Region must adopt a public charter defining member Communities, delegated functions, funding mechanisms, and inter-community dispute procedures consistent with this Constitution.
Regional boundaries and membership may not be manipulated to dilute representation, evade rights enforcement, or entrench power.
Disputes as to Regional status, boundaries, or compliance are subject to expedited review by the Federal High Court.
Adult Resident
An Adult Resident is any resident aged 18 or older. Adult Residents have full voting rights unless a court determines incapacity through due process and a least-restrictive standard. Residence standards and proof may be defined by law, provided they are non-discriminatory and do not impose undue burden.
Electorate
The Electorate is the set of Adult Residents eligible to vote in the relevant jurisdiction at the time the vote is held.
Eligibility rules must be viewpoint-neutral, non-discriminatory, and administered uniformly.
Administrative barriers to voting, including unreasonable documentation demands, unequal access, or discriminatory purge practices, are prohibited.
Disputes about eligibility, registration, or access must have a timely cure process and an appeal path, with expedited judicial review for rights-impacting disputes.
Valid Ballots Cast
Valid Ballots Cast are ballots that satisfy verification and anti-fraud procedures established by law and do not contain disqualifying defects. Non-participation does not count as a ballot cast.
Verification and defect rules must be neutral, accessible, and accompanied by a reasonable opportunity to cure non-fraud defects.
Disqualification rules must be narrowly tailored to prevent fraud or preserve election integrity, and may not be used to suppress participation.
Audit, recount, and challenge procedures must be transparent and subject to judicial review.
Political Party
A Political Party is any organization that nominates candidates, endorses candidates as an organization, coordinates electoral activity, or materially directs election-related spending to influence governance decisions.
“Political Party” includes materially controlled affiliates and coordinated entities acting as functional arms of the party, as defined by law consistent with this Constitution.
Neutral civic associations that do not coordinate electoral activity as defined herein are not Political Parties.
Issue advocacy that does not endorse or oppose an identified candidate and does not coordinate spending with a candidate or party shall not, by itself, constitute Political Party activity.
Corporate Entity
A Corporate Entity is any for-profit entity or other legal person that engages in commerce, including subsidiaries and controlled affiliates, and including materially compensated contractors acting on its behalf as defined by law consistent with this Constitution.
Control
Control is direct or indirect power to materially direct governance outcomes, including through majority ownership, voting rights, contractual leverage, dominant funding, media concentration, lobbying spend, procurement dependence, platform gatekeeping, coordinated political spending, or other material influence as defined by law consistent with this Constitution.
“Materially direct” means influence sufficient to impair democratic accountability, pluralism, or rights enforcement, or to determine outcomes in appointments, procurement, enforcement, or elections.
Control assessments must consider de facto influence, coordinated action, and intermediary arrangements, not only formal ownership or titles.
Attempts to evade Control rules through shells, contract splitting, pass-through entities, or coordinated affiliates shall be treated as a single controlling interest.
Systemic Failure
A Systemic Failure is a persistent, documented inability of a public institution to meet constitutional obligations, evidenced by repeated rights violations, audit findings, corruption, discriminatory outcomes, or material service collapse.
A finding of Systemic Failure may be made by the Public Review Commission, an independent audit designated by law, or a court of competent jurisdiction.
Findings must be supported by publicly stated criteria, evidence standards, and a reasoned report, with redactions only as strictly necessary for privacy, safety, or active investigations.
Institutions subject to a Systemic Failure finding must receive a defined corrective pathway and remain subject to ongoing public reporting and judicial review.
Emergency
An Emergency is a temporary condition posing an immediate and significant threat to public safety, national security, or ecological stability, where ordinary legal processes are insufficient for timely response.
Emergency declarations and permissible emergency measures are governed by Article VIII and must be specific as to scope, geography, duration, and invoked powers.
Emergency authority may not be used to suspend elections, abolish courts, eliminate oversight bodies, authorize mass surveillance, permit indefinite detention, or censor political dissent.
Ecological Stability
Ecological Stability means measurable conditions within scientifically defined planetary boundaries, including climate stability, biodiversity, freshwater availability, soil health, and pollution thresholds.
Metrics and thresholds used for legal determinations must rely on the best available scientific evidence and be published with methods and uncertainty ranges.
Where metrics are set or updated by law, the process must be transparent, evidence-based, and subject to judicial review for arbitrariness or capture.
Trained Civic Pool
A Trained Civic Pool is a publicly administered roster of eligible Adult Residents who have completed standardized training and verification required for service in designated civic roles, including sortition-based offices and mixed-selection bodies.
The pool must be administered by an independent public administrator institutionally separate from the bodies that draw from it, overseen by the Public Review Commission, and audited annually.
Enrollment must be voluntary, free, accessible, and non-discriminatory, with reasonable identity verification to prevent duplication and fraud.
Minimum training must cover constitutional duties, conflicts and recusals, anti-corruption, privacy, records obligations, and anti-intimidation reporting, with required accommodations.
Tampering, coercion, or bribery intended to influence pool composition or selection outcomes is a grave constitutional offense.
Major Vendor
A Major Vendor is a Corporate Entity, including subsidiaries, controlled affiliates, or materially compensated contractors, that meets any threshold defined below within a jurisdiction in any rolling twelve-month period, or as an average across the prior three fiscal years:
- holds public contracts with total value equal to or exceeding the greater of one percent of total jurisdiction procurement spend or an inflation-indexed monetary threshold defined by law; or
- provides twenty percent or more of spend within a procurement category designated by law as essential, safety-critical, or rights-impacting; or
- holds thirty percent or more market share in a procurement-relevant market, or is found by an independent competition authority or court to possess dominant market power; or
- is designated by independent audit as creating material single-point-of-failure risk due to concentration, sole-source dependency, platform gatekeeping, or lack of viable substitutes.
Anti-evasion rules shall aggregate affiliates and coordinated contractors and shall treat contract splitting and pass-through arrangements as a single vendor relationship.
Plain meaning.A Major Vendor is a big or dominant contractor that creates capture or single-point-of-failure risk, and affiliates or split contracts still count together.
Senior
A Senior role is a role held by an individual within a Political Party, Corporate Entity, union, nonprofit, or government body that meets any criterion below within the prior twenty-four months:
- has final or substantial decision-making authority over policy, enforcement priorities, election administration, procurement, budgeting, executive hiring, litigation strategy, regulatory strategy, or large-scale public communications; or
- reports directly to a chief executive, executive committee, board, or equivalent governing body, or supervises a unit with authority over rights-impacting decisions; or
- holds a title customarily indicating executive authority, including director, commissioner, chief, vice president, partner, general counsel, head of public policy, head of government relations, head of compliance, or equivalent titles defined by law, which creates a rebuttable presumption of seniority; or
- receives total compensation in the top five percent within the organization in the relevant jurisdiction, or above an inflation-indexed public threshold defined by law, provided compensation is not the sole basis for designation; or
- is found by independent audit or court to exercise material influence over governance outcomes through funding control, media control, platform gatekeeping, or procurement leverage.
Seniority determinations shall consider de facto authority, including consulting and intermediary roles, and may not be evaded by title manipulation.
Plain meaning.A Senior is someone with substantial decision power or influence in an organization, even if they try to hide it behind titles or contracts.
Interpretation
Interpretation means rights and duties in this Constitution are to be interpreted in good faith to maximize human dignity, democratic accountability, and ecological stewardship, and to minimize arbitrary power.
Severability
Severability means if any provision is held invalid, remaining provisions remain in force unless they are inseparable.
Essential, Safety-Critical, or Rights-Impacting Procurement Category
An Essential, Safety-Critical, or Rights-Impacting Procurement Category is a procurement classification designated under law for goods or services whose failure, denial, manipulation, or capture would foreseeably cause substantial harm to life, health, safety, constitutional rights, democratic processes, or continuity of core public services.
Minimum Criteria. A category qualifies if it meets one or more of the following:
- supports delivery of constitutionally guaranteed basic services, including healthcare, education, water, food systems, housing support, emergency response, or essential utilities;
- supports election administration, civic identity systems, public records systems, courts, oversight bodies, or other core democratic infrastructure;
- involves sensitive personal data, communications, surveillance-adjacent capabilities, identity verification, or large-scale data processing used for public decision-making;
- provides safety-critical infrastructure, including energy, water treatment, transportation, communications backbone, disaster response logistics, or public health supply chains;
- creates material single-point-of-failure risk due to concentration, sole-source dependency, switching barriers, or vendor lock-in;
- has a demonstrated history of fraud, corruption, price-gouging, coercive leverage, discriminatory outcomes, or systemic service collapse in the jurisdiction.Plain meaning.A category qualifies if it is necessary for basic services, democratic infrastructure, sensitive data use, safety-critical systems, high concentration risk, or a proven pattern of abuse or collapse.
Resident
A Resident is a person whose primary living presence is within the relevant jurisdiction, as defined by law consistent with this Constitution.
Residence rules must be non-discriminatory, accessible, and may not be conditioned on property ownership, employment status, incarceration history, or housing status.
No Resident may be denied constitutional protections due to lack of fixed address, immigration status, or inability to produce burdensome documentation, provided identity and residency may be reasonably verified through least-restrictive means.
Jurisdiction
Jurisdiction means the scope of lawful authority to govern, enforce, tax, adjudicate, or administer public functions.
Jurisdiction may be territorial (defined geographic boundaries) or functional (a defined public function authorized by law).
No body may expand its Jurisdiction by implication, contract, or private agreement; Jurisdiction must be granted by this Constitution or by law consistent with it.
Rights-Impacting Decision
A Rights-Impacting Decision is any public or publicly delegated decision that materially affects a person’s liberty, bodily autonomy, privacy, political participation, access to courts, housing, employment benefits, education, healthcare, essential services, legal status, or exposure to surveillance or force.
A decision is Rights-Impacting if it (a) denies, conditions, delays, or burdens access to a protected right or essential service, (b) increases exposure to coercive enforcement, or (c) uses personal data to make eligibility, prioritization, or enforcement determinations.
Competency-Based Evaluation
A Competency-Based Evaluation is an assessment of skills and ethical fitness required for a specific public role, conducted under published standards, validated for relevance and bias, with accommodations, an appeal path, and judicial review for arbitrariness or discrimination.
Competency standards must be viewpoint-neutral and may not use party affiliation, ideology, protected characteristics, or proxy measures.
Where competency evaluations are required for public roles, the standards and assessments must be administered by an independent body designated by law, with:
- published rubrics and scoring criteria,
- periodic bias and validity audits,
- public reporting of aggregate outcomes,
- appeal and retest rights,
- protections against capture by private credentialing monopolies.Plain meaning.Competency checks must be fair, transparent, and not a political gate.
Internal Association Matter
An Internal Association Matter is a rule or decision of a non-territorial Community or civic association that governs only voluntary membership, internal governance, and private association activities.
Internal Association Matters may not determine access to public services, housing, employment, education, healthcare, public spaces, voting, legal process, or safety services, and may not impose coercive penalties.
Prior Restraint
Prior Restraint means an order preventing publication or speech before it occurs.
Prior Restraint is prohibited except where a court finds, by clear and convincing evidence, a specific and imminent threat of grave bodily harm that cannot be mitigated by less restrictive means, and the order is narrowly scoped and time-limited.
Large-Scale Corruption
Large-Scale Corruption means corruption involving (a) systemic procurement fraud, (b) capture of enforcement or oversight bodies, (c) coordinated bribery or coercion affecting elections or rights enforcement, or (d) corruption whose financial scale or institutional impact is designated by law under objective thresholds and subject to judicial review.
Terrorism
Terrorism means intentional violence or credible violent threat against civilians or noncombatants to coerce public action or governmental decision-making, as defined by law consistent with human rights and subject to strict judicial review.
Terrorism definitions may not be expanded to criminalize lawful protest, labor action, civil disobedience, journalism, or political opposition.
Public Body
A Public Body is any entity that exercises governmental authority, performs a function created by law, administers public funds, or is authorized to make, enforce, or implement rules or decisions binding on Residents, including agencies, councils, commissions, courts, authorities, and publicly created corporations, whether at Community, Regional, or Federated level.
A Public Body includes any private or nonprofit actor to the extent it performs a Public Function under delegation, contract, license, or mandate.
Public Function
A Public Function is any function that is constitutionally required, legally mandated, or publicly delegated, including: election administration; courts and dispute resolution; detention and enforcement; provision or administration of essential services; rights-impacting eligibility determinations; management of public records; public procurement; and any function involving coercive power, surveillance authority, or Rights-Impacting Decisions.
A function remains a Public Function even if performed by a contractor, platform, nonprofit, union, cooperative, or other private actor, where the actor’s decisions materially affect access to rights, services, protections, or legal status.
Essential Service
An Essential Service is any service whose denial, failure, manipulation, or capture would foreseeably cause substantial harm to life, health, safety, constitutional rights, democratic processes, or continuity of core public services, including healthcare, emergency response, education, water, sanitation, food systems, shelter access, power and utilities, communications backbone, and rights-impacting public administration systems as defined by law consistent with this Constitution.
Where the term “essential services” is used as a basis to limit rights, it must be interpreted narrowly and subject to strict scrutiny, with written findings demonstrating necessity, proportionality, and least-restrictive means.
For avoidance of doubt, when “Essential Service” is used as a basis to limit rights, it shall be treated as coextensive with the Essential, Safety-Critical, or Rights-Impacting Procurement Category definition in this Section.
Popular Sovereignty & Decentralized Governance
Source of Authority: All legitimate political authority arises from the consent and active participation of the people.
Communities Defined: Communities self-define their structure based on geographic proximity, cultural affinity, or shared purpose, provided they operate democratically and uphold fundamental rights.
Environmental Stewardship: Governance at all levels integrates ecological responsibility, ensuring that policies respect scientifically defined planetary boundaries (e.g., climate stability, biodiversity loss, freshwater use) and prioritize the well-being of future generations.
Technological Responsibility: Ethical frameworks ensure technological advancements are used transparently and equitably, with safeguards against misuse. The Technology Ethics Council oversees compliance. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
Governance Oversight: A Public Review Commission evaluates governmental efficiency, equity, and accountability every five years. Its findings are publicly accessible and trigger mandatory reforms if systemic failures are identified. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
Civic Literacy & Education: A mandatory Civic Literacy Program will educate all residents on governance structures, democratic rights, and responsibilities. Funding will be allocated equitably across communities.
Right to Dissolve Government: If the government ceases to uphold its responsibilities or becomes oppressive, the people retain the right to dissolve it through a constitutional process, requiring a supermajority public referendum and oversight by the Federal High Court.
Subsidiarity Principle: Power remains at the most local feasible level, with higher levels intervening only when necessary for coordination, resource distribution, or rights protection.
Anti-Authoritarian Safeguards: Any concentration of power, suppression of dissent, or violation of democratic processes triggers intervention by an Independent Oversight Committee, which may issue temporary suspensions of offending actions pending judicial review. Suspensions must be time-limited, narrowly scoped, and immediately reviewable by the Federal High Court. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
Resident Recall Power: A Citizen Recall Mechanism allows the public to remove any official by referendum vote if corruption or authoritarian behavior is identified. A petition signed by 10% of the electorate is required to initiate a recall.
To prevent harassment and governance paralysis:
- no more than one recall election for the same office may be held within a rolling 12-month period absent a judicial finding of newly discovered, material corruption;
- petition circulation must provide secure methods that reduce doxxing risk, with protected reporting channels for intimidation;
- fraudulent signature gathering, coercion, retaliation, and doxxing campaigns in connection with recall are grave constitutional offenses;
- courts must provide expedited review for credible claims of intimidation or discriminatory enforcement in recall processes.
Anti-Entrenchment & Anti-Capture Safeguards: Electoral victories do not by themselves constitute illegitimate domination. Structural entrenchment and capture are prohibited. The following constitute prima facie entrenchment or capture when they materially impair pluralism, free elections, or rights enforcement:
- Manipulation of election rules to lock in incumbency, including discriminatory ballot access, intimidation, suppression, or unequal administration.
- Gerrymandering or districting methods that systematically dilute representation without neutral justification.
- Concentration of media, communications infrastructure, or platform distribution that prevents fair political communication, including undisclosed algorithmic suppression or amplification in public channels.
- Capture of courts, election administration, public prosecution, security services, or oversight bodies for partisan advantage.
- Corruption or procurement dependence where a Corporate Entity or donor network materially dictates policy, enforcement, or appointments.
- Retaliation against whistleblowers, journalists, organizers, or political opponents through unlawful surveillance, detention, threats, or economic coercion.
Anti-Entrenchment Review: A petition signed by 5% of the Electorate in the relevant jurisdiction, a finding by the Public Review Commission, or a two-thirds vote of the Oversight Coordination Council may initiate review. The Federal High Court must hear the matter on an expedited schedule.
Permitted Remedies: Where entrenchment or capture is found, remedies may include annulment of tainted rules, independent election administration, redistricting, campaign finance resets, dissolution or reconstitution of unlawfully captured boards, disqualification of officials for proven corruption, and re-run elections under neutral supervision. Remedies must be tailored, time-limited, and publicly justified.
Non-Interference Rule: No remedy may suspend basic rights, dissolve communities by force, or criminalize lawful political opposition. Structural safeguards target capture mechanisms, not ideology.
Oversight Bodies & Coordination
Oversight Coordination Council (OCC): The OCC ensures clarity in the mandates, funding, and jurisdiction of oversight bodies. It resolves disputes between oversight agencies and prevents redundancy or conflicts. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X. Coordination Rule: When multiple bodies have plausible jurisdiction, the OCC assigns a lead body and a support role within 30 days, and the lead body controls timelines and scope.
OCC Boundaries: Each constitutional oversight body must publish a public charter defining its jurisdiction, powers, evidence standards, enforcement tools, appeal path, and budget ceiling. Overlapping jurisdiction must be resolved by written memorandum or, if disputed, by expedited review in the Federal High Court within 60 days.
Budget and Audits: Oversight bodies are subject to annual independent audits. Enforcement actions must be logged publicly with redactions only as strictly necessary for safety, privacy, or ongoing investigations.
Fast Dispute Resolution: When two bodies issue conflicting directives, the narrower directive applies temporarily while an expedited review is heard. No oversight body may unilaterally expand its mandate without legislative authorization and judicial review.
Public Review Commission: Reviews governance every five years. If a Systemic Failure (as defined in Article I, Section 0) is identified, mandatory reforms and corrective legislation are required within 12 months. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X. Scope: The Public Review Commission performs periodic system-level audits and performance reviews, and may refer suspected violations to the appropriate enforcement or adjudicatory body; it does not prosecute or adjudicate individual cases.
Within 90 days of a Systemic Failure finding, the responsible institution must publish a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) stating root causes, measurable milestones, budget needs, and a timeline not exceeding 12 months unless extended by court order for good cause.
If the legislature or responsible body fails to enact or implement necessary corrective measures within 12 months, the Federal High Court may:
- order a court-supervised compliance plan,
- impose targeted budget holds on noncompliant discretionary programs of the responsible institution,
- appoint a time-limited independent compliance administrator with narrowly defined authority to implement the CAP, and
- require periodic public reporting until compliance is achieved.
Remedies must be tailored, time-limited, and may not suspend elections, abolish courts, or eliminate oversight bodies.
Independent Oversight Committee: Investigates corruption, authoritarian actions, and abuse of power. It may issue temporary suspensions of actions pending judicial review. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X. Scope: The Independent Oversight Committee investigates abuse of power and rights-impacting misconduct by public officials and agencies; it does not duplicate routine audits or regulate private entities except as necessary to investigate public corruption or coercion.
Whistleblower Protection Agency: Protects individuals reporting corruption, rights violations, or safety threats. Retaliation is prohibited and punishable. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X. Scope: The Whistleblower Protection Agency receives protected disclosures, prevents retaliation, and may compel corrective action for retaliation; it refers underlying wrongdoing to the competent body.
Non-Duplication: No oversight body may open a parallel investigation into the same facts without written findings of necessity and OCC notice.
Default workflow: PRC audits, WPA receives disclosures, IOC investigates abuse, OCC assigns lead jurisdiction, and courts adjudicate disputes.
Governance Innovation & Accountability
Periodic Constitutional Review: Every 20 years, a Constitutional Review Assembly is convened to propose updates. Any amendments must follow Article IX.
Open Data and Transparency: Government decisions, budgets, and contracts must be publicly accessible, with exceptions only for narrowly defined privacy or safety needs.
Any redaction of public records, audits, enforcement logs, contracts, or decisions must:
- be narrowly limited to specific information whose disclosure would create a concrete and articulable risk to personal safety, privacy, or an active investigation;
- be accompanied by a written justification stating the basis, scope, and duration;
- be recorded in a public Redaction Log stating the record type, redaction category, and scheduled review date;
- be reviewed at least every 90 days and automatically expire unless renewed with written findings;
- be subject to expedited challenge by any Resident or affected party, with judicial review available.
All public bodies must maintain a public records system with:
- a right of access to records within defined response deadlines set by law;
- minimum retention periods for budgets, contracts, enforcement logs, election records, and oversight findings;
- preservation holds upon notice of litigation, audit, or investigation;
- penalties for willful destruction, falsification, or concealment of records.
Anti-Corruption Safeguards: Public officials must disclose assets and conflicts of interest. Violations result in removal and legal penalties.
Selection, Tenure, and Anti-Capture Standards
Selection, tenure, removal, conflicts of interest, anti-intimidation protections, sortition integrity, and the Office Registry are governed by Article X. In the event of conflict, Article X controls unless an Article expressly states it supersedes Article X.
Supremacy, Preemption, and Conflict-of-Laws
- This Constitution.
- Federated law enacted consistent with this Constitution.
- Regional law enacted consistent with this Constitution and federated law.
- Community law enacted consistent with this Constitution and higher law.
- a clear law specifying scope, duration, oversight, auditability, appeal paths, and remedies; and
- compliance with Article X conflicts, procurement, and anti-capture standards; and
- judicial review availability for affected Residents.
- any delegated actor performing a Public Function is a Public Body for purposes of this Constitution to the extent of that function.
- any Resident or oversight body has standing to seek expedited review by the Federal High Court; and
- interim relief may be granted to prevent irreparable harm; and
- pending final resolution, the rule that is least rights-restrictive applies unless a court finds a compelling necessity under strict scrutiny.Plain meaning.The constitution outranks everything. Federated law outranks regional, regional outranks communities. No one can go below the rights floor. If laws clash and rights are at stake, courts decide fast, and the least rights-restrictive rule applies meanwhile.
Governance Structures
Community Councils
Mandate: Manage local services (education, healthcare, security) through participatory budgeting and transparent procedures.
Voting Rights:
- All adult residents (18+ years old) have full voting rights. This age threshold reflects the principle that individuals contributing to society (e.g., through work or taxation) should have a voice in governance.
- Youth aged 12-17 may participate in debates as non-voting delegates and have binding advisory votes that require a written response and recorded consideration, on issues directly affecting them (e.g., education, climate).
Leadership Competency: Leadership positions require competency-based evaluations to ensure governance is led by individuals with necessary skills, ethical decision-making, and crisis response capacity.
Recall and Term Limits: Community leaders serve no more than two consecutive four-year terms and are subject to recall via public petition and referendum.
Regional Councils
Mandate: Coordinate large-scale concerns (e.g., infrastructure, environmental policies) between communities.
Resource Allocation: Ensure equitable distribution of resources between communities, prioritizing marginalized or resource-poor areas.
Dispute Resolution: Resolve conflicts between communities through mediation and binding arbitration where necessary.
Federated Assembly
Mandate: Address national-level issues (foreign policy, monetary policy, universal rights enforcement) while ensuring subsidiarity.
Representation: The Federated Assembly represents regions using proportional methods with minority-representation protections. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
Transparency: All sessions must be public, recorded, and accessible. Closed sessions require judicial approval.
Major Decisions: Constitutional changes, war declarations, and major public spending programs require a two-thirds majority of the Federated Assembly and ratified by public referendum.
Public Referenda: At least once every decade, a national referendum must be held on a docket of major questions as defined by law, and major decisions designated by this Constitution require referendum ratification.
Emergency Governance Protocol: Emergency declarations and measures are governed exclusively by Article VIII.
Federal High Court: A Federal High Court is established to unify interpretations of constitutional principles and resolve disputes between regional and federal authorities. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
Legislative Process & Public Transparency
Public Drafting: All proposed laws must be published in plain language and full legal text before a final vote, with a minimum public comment period of 30 days, except as limited under Article VIII.
Committee Review: The Federated Assembly and Regional Councils must maintain public committees with recorded votes, disclosed conflicts of interest, and published findings.
Voting Rules: Ordinary laws require a majority of members present, with quorum defined by law. Rights-limiting laws require a two-thirds majority and an explicit findings report demonstrating necessity, proportionality, and least-restrictive means.
Publication and Effective Dates: All enacted laws must be published in a public registry, including implementation guidance, budget impact, and enforcement authority. Laws take effect no sooner than 14 days after publication unless urgent and narrowly justified.
Executive Administration & Implementation
Purpose: Execution of law is an administrative function, not an independent source of political power.
Federal Executive Secretariat: A Federal Executive Secretariat is established to implement laws, execute budgets, coordinate agencies, and manage inter-regional services. It has no authority to legislate.
Appointment and Removal: The Secretariat is led by an Administrator-General. Senior administrators must meet competency standards and are subject to conflict-of-interest and anti-corruption rules. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
Agency Creation and Limits: Agencies may be created only by law, with a defined mandate, sunset review, and audit requirements. Delegated rulemaking must remain within clear statutory bounds and is subject to judicial review.
Transparency: Executive actions, contracts, and procurement decisions must be publicly logged, with narrow redactions for privacy and security. Emergency procurement remains subject to Article VIII reporting and postmortem audit.
Elections Administration & Integrity
An Independent Elections Administration Authority is established in each jurisdiction with responsibility for election administration, voter access, ballot integrity, audits, and transparent certification.
Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
The IEAA shall:
- maintain a secure, accessible voter registry with timely cure processes;
- administer elections and referenda using uniform, public procedures;
- ensure equal access to voting including reasonable accommodations, accessible polling, and non-discriminatory documentation standards;
- publish ballot design and counting procedures to prevent confusion and arbitrary rejection;
- operate transparent post-election audits and recount procedures under published standards;
- maintain chain-of-custody and evidence logs for ballots and tabulation systems;
- investigate and refer intimidation, suppression, fraud, or administrative misconduct to the competent enforcement body.
For election systems and services, the IEAA must:
- treat election administration as an Essential, Safety-Critical, or Rights-Impacting Procurement Category;
- prohibit undisclosed vendor influence over ballot access, tabulation, certification, or audit methods;
- require public disclosure of election vendor contracts, pricing, and conflicts, with narrow redactions only for specific security details;
- prohibit proprietary black-box systems for tabulation, audit, or voter eligibility determinations.
Minimum audit standards shall be established by law consistent with this Constitution and must include:
- risk-limiting or functionally equivalent audits for tabulation accuracy;
- public reporting of methods, sample selection, error rates, and corrective actions;
- preserved public evidence sufficient for judicial review.
Where territorial districts exist, aligning districts must follow neutral criteria established by law consistent with this Constitution, and may not be manipulated to dilute representation.
Where proportional methods are used, allocation formulas must be published, stable, and subject to judicial review for arbitrariness or discriminatory effect.
No emergency declaration may alter election dates, ballot access rules, counting rules, or audit requirements except by:
- a specific law limited to the emergency period,
- written findings satisfying necessity, proportionality, and least-restrictive means, and
- expedited review by the Federal High Court.
The IEAA may issue binding administrative directives necessary to administer elections and protect voting access.
Interference with IEAA duties, including intimidation, suppression, sabotage of audits, or unlawful refusal to comply with lawful directives, is a grave constitutional offense.
The IEAA has standing to seek expedited relief in the Federal High Court to enjoin interference or compel compliance.
Justice & Dispute Resolution
Restorative Justice Focus
Principle: Emphasizes repair, rehabilitation, and reintegration, reducing punitive measures unless necessary.
Applicability: Used in civil and criminal matters, except for severe offenses requiring security measures. Severe offenses include homicide, terrorism, and large-scale corruption.
Implementation: Restorative Justice Programs will be established in every community, funded by a combination of local and federal resources. Annual evaluations will ensure effectiveness and equity.
Community Mediation & Courts
Mediation Councils: Trained, diverse mediators ensure timely and impartial resolutions.
Local Courts: Judges are elected by the community and are removable only by judicial discipline for cause, and by impeachment for corruption, under Article X.
Appeals: All parties have the right to appeal adverse judgments or orders under procedures defined by law consistent with due process, including timely access to the record and a reasoned decision.
Protection Against Abuse: Individuals retain rights against arbitrary detention or unfair trials. A Legal Ombudsman investigates complaints of judicial misconduct. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
Ban on For-Profit Prisons & Mass Surveillance Policing: To prevent exploitation and authoritarian overreach, the use of private incarceration facilities and predictive policing based on mass surveillance is prohibited. Violations will result in immediate termination of contracts and legal penalties.
Federal High Court & Constitutional Review
Federal High Court: Ensures uniform constitutional interpretation, resolves disputes between jurisdictions, and oversees key rights enforcement mechanisms.
Constitutional Complaints: Any resident may bring a complaint alleging constitutional rights violations. The Court must provide expedited review for urgent rights threats.
Judicial Accountability: Judges are subject to ethical review, asset disclosure, and removal for corruption or abuse, under a high threshold to protect independence.
Bill of Rights
Enforcement, Standing, & Remedies
Direct Enforceability: Rights in this Article are enforceable in court. Any resident with a credible claim of harm, or any public-interest organization meeting standing requirements defined by law, may bring suit. Unless expressly limited to Residents or Adult Residents, the rights in this Article apply to all persons within the jurisdiction.
Remedies: Courts may grant declaratory relief, injunctions, damages, exclusion of unlawfully obtained evidence, restoration of benefits, and structural remedies including supervised compliance plans.
Progressive Realization: Economic and social rights requiring sustained public resources (including guaranteed GDP floors) are subject to progressive realization, but governments must demonstrate good faith, non-discrimination, and measurable progress. Retrogression requires clear justification under strict scrutiny.
Expedited Review: Claims involving detention, surveillance, voting access, censorship, or emergency derogations must receive priority scheduling and a decision within 90 days when practicable.
Fundamental Rights

Economic Resilience Fund: A reserve fund will be established to address economic downturns, natural disasters, or other crises.
Emergency Powers & Safeguards
Emergency Declarations
Definition: An emergency is a temporary condition posing an immediate and significant threat to public safety, national security, or ecological stability, where ordinary legal processes are insufficient for timely response.
Declaration Process: Emergency declarations require approval by a two-thirds majority of the Federated Assembly and the Resilience Council. Declarations must specify scope, geography, duration, and the precise powers invoked.
Transparency & Public Notice: Every declaration must be accompanied by a public report stating facts, objectives, alternatives considered, and why less-restrictive tools are inadequate.
Duration and Renewal: Emergency measures expire after 60 days unless renewed. Renewals require a two-thirds vote of the Federated Assembly. Any emergency extending beyond 180 days requires a public referendum for continuation.
The Resilience Council evaluates emergency evidence, recommends permissible measures under this Article, monitors implementation risks, and issues written public reasoning.
Recommendations must be based on published evidentiary standards, including:
- specific threat description and scope,
- measurable objectives,
- alternatives considered,
- rights impacts and mitigation steps,
- why less-restrictive tools are inadequate.
Members must disclose conflicts and recuse where conflicts are material.
No member may hold a Senior role in a Major Vendor materially involved in emergency procurement, surveillance-adjacent services, detention services, or emergency logistics in the jurisdiction within the prior 24 months.
Minority dissent statements must be published with the recommendation.
All votes, recusals, and evidence summaries must be logged publicly with narrow redactions.
Resilience Council recommendations and conflict determinations are subject to expedited review by the Federal High Court.
Exclusive Governance of Emergency Measures. Emergency declarations, emergency measures, and any extensions, renewals, or referendum requirements are governed exclusively by this Article. No other Article may be construed to expand emergency authority beyond the closed list and safeguards herein.
Closed List of Permitted Emergency Measures
Only the following measures may be authorized by emergency declaration, and only to the extent necessary:
- Accelerated procurement for essential supplies, with immediate publication of vendors, prices, and conflict disclosures.
- Temporary redeployment of public personnel and resources.
- Time-limited restrictions on access to specific unsafe zones.
- Temporary rationing or price controls for essential goods to prevent hoarding and exploitation.
- Temporary public health measures grounded in evidence, with exemptions where feasible.
- Temporary suspension of non-essential regulatory requirements that would materially delay response, excluding rights protections.
Prohibited Measures: No emergency declaration may suspend elections, abolish courts, eliminate oversight bodies, authorize mass surveillance, permit indefinite detention, or censor political dissent.
Rights Derogation Standard
Any emergency measure that limits rights must satisfy necessity, proportionality, and least-restrictive means. Written findings are mandatory. Measures affecting detention, surveillance, speech, assembly, voting, or bodily autonomy require expedited judicial review.
Oversight, Review, and Postmortem
Judicial Review: The Federal High Court may review emergency declarations and measures on an expedited schedule and may enjoin unlawful actions immediately.
Residents’ Emergency Oversight Panel: A Residents’ Emergency Oversight Panel monitors implementation, receives complaints, and publishes biweekly public reports. Selection, tenure, removal, and composition are governed by Article X.
After-Action Accountability: Within 90 days of the end of an emergency, a public postmortem must be issued detailing actions taken, rights impacts, expenditures, outcomes, and lessons learned. Failure to publish triggers automatic budget holds on the responsible agency and mandatory hearings.
Amendment Process
Proposal: Amendments may be proposed by a two-thirds majority of the Federated Assembly, a petition signed by 10% of the electorate, or a recommendation from the Public Review Commission.
Ratification: Amendments must be approved by a two-thirds majority of the Federated Assembly and ratified by a majority public referendum.
Protected Principles: Amendments may not abolish (a) democratic self-governance through free and fair elections, (b) the enforceability of fundamental rights in Article IV, or (c) the duty of ecological stewardship. This limitation bars abolition or nullification of these cores, and does not prohibit ordinary policy change consistent with them.

Optional Addendum: Emergency Powers and Response (Resilience Council, emergency administrators, Residents’ Emergency Oversight Panel)
“I affirm that emergency authority is limited, time-bound, and governed exclusively by Article VIII. I will recommend or implement only measures within the closed list, supported by written findings of necessity, proportionality, and least-restrictive means.
