Council made per village/town/city ---------------------------------- Given all the previous writing on councils, it is easy enough to adapt a voter-group, (optional 1) 1st order council, (optional 2) delegate section and 2nd order council to any size and circumstance. For example to change the system so that each village and town will decide by themselves how they will set up their council system(s). Maybe one city wants to use many councils and one overseeing council, while another only wants lower councils and yet another only a centralized. Another may want exactly so many per voter group, council, section and 2nd order council(s), as fits snugly into their number of people. This can be done on the provincial level also: every wider area deciding how they want their council to work. If such an idea is not widely carried in a nation (a nation?), then one could divide the nation into sectors of 50, so that they at least send in one representative to form a national Government. At least under the proposed Constitution the law would have to be adapted so as to allow these councils in any shape and form yet still be recognized as the public Government (under the Constitution.) This way each province (1/50th) can do what they think best, while having a public interface with the rest of the nation that the rest of the nation can properly work with (although if differences become extreme, so extreme they can no longer (reasonably?) be part of the same Constitution, either one would divide into several nations or have to change other parts of the Constitution (the part saying the Constitution is one across the nation). Obviously, I suppose, one could organize councils in any way one wanted anyway, while forming constitutional councils also, who then simply constantly stamp for approval what these councils say (but that may be tedious, though can be a temporary solution, and a trial). It is one of the quirks of the proposed Constitution that its 1st order Government councils bear no direct relationship to villages and towns, and are only on a larger size properly set on one village and town (from 50 * 50, 2500 onward). For today its villages/cities that is often adequate because they are larger. (It was suggested previously that very small villages could be ruled by detachments of councils as a ministry-council, who themselves could be structured as voted councils in their own right, which should be Constitutional too.) When it is desired that for example there is only one central council in one village or city and no others of any kind, then at least if that is widely believed then the 1st order delegates would simply refrain from organizing 1st order councils, which would require a slight change in the Constitution (because the proposal says that the delegates will form 1st order councils, with 2nd order councils being optional.) But having formed these 1st order councils, they could still decide to rarely if ever use them, leaving most/all decisions to a central village or town council (in which all the delegates are represented also, or could be). It is also possible per the 'departments' ('ministeries' in Dutch) rule (3.1.d.6) that another political structure descends down from the nation Government, the provincial Government, or other Constitutional councils, especially if that is not resisted and/or conflicting with the competence of these smaller-group councils (and/or not contested in court, and/or if the law is changed to allow for it, and/or if the Courts decide it is good (which certainly during national disintegration there is more argument to support a stricter top down element because "stability has become a national/provincial/city wide concern, therefore such/such council is competent to address the issue sufficiently, even when crossing the will of smaller area councils" (see: 3.4 Space) See also: http://www.socialism.nl/post/003/2010-05-06_DA---_--_en (Centralized Democracy)
