Concept
Our main idea is to create our own virtual jurisdiction with brand-new society and modern management tools, an extra-territorial state model called Freeland.
Change of the existing state systems is only possible if a new form of an e-agreement is introduced for everyone, the so-called Public Agreement which was technically impossible to implement before. Today we offer you a chance to join the launch of a virtual jurisdiction outside the bounds of existing jurisdictions but with the prospect of interaction with them on the basis of certain agreements.
In a contemporary world, a choice of a homeland is a conscious choice of a human being, not an adoption of an old-school feudal model, where a state is a major taxman and provides services based thereon, mostly of a very poor quality. Basically, government in the future will only play a role of a service company whose work should satisfy its citizens and, therefore, consumers. The whole notion of homeland will be pure loyalty to the brand.
What is Freeland?
The virtual state of Freeland is the same state as any other existing one, whether recognized or not. The global difference is that it is organized on a newly-discovered territory: in the infosphere. There is no logical reason to deny that this territory exists. There is no reason to deny that social and economic relations between people can technically be built in it according to different rules than ever before.
Principles of Freeland state system:
The following principles shall be adopted by the system:
- Within the scope of traditional classification, Freeland is a democratic state, a parliamentary republic.
- The electoral right is built on the blockchain technology and represents a direct agreement between the voter and the official. Elections are not a periodic act but a permanent process.
- The financial system of Freeland is based on the circulation of the MFCoin crypto-currency (hereinafter referred to as MFC), which is a means of payment for the state of Freeland. The virtual state of Freeland allows and maintains circulation on its territory of any currency and means of payment, if their treatment does not harm the citizens of Freeland.
- Freeland is the first state to recognize an individual’s exclusive right on his intellect as private property not subject to any encumbrances.
What is the decision-making algorithm in a virtual state?
All the decisions in Freeland are being taken by its citizens by means of qualified majority (not less than 2/3 of votes). However, any issue during any ballot should have a binary statement with not more than two possible solutions to avoid manipulation. Each vote counts as one regardless of the voter’s social status. If none of the two solutions gained 2/3 of votes, both options shall be considered potentially rational and shall be polished till the agreed decision is taken in favor of one of them.
What is Public Agreement?
Public Agreement (social contract) is a socio-economic theory of the advent of the civil society, state and law as a result of certain agreement between individuals. This theory undertakes that individuals shall in part deny their sovereign rights for the benefit of the state so that they can account for their interests via the state. Initially, any member of such state must abide by the rules and incur liability for their violation. However, currently existing states aiming at the implementation of Public Agreement are based on human factor and prejudicial treatment leading to corruption and manipulation.
Public Agreement of Freeland provides for public coverage of the conflicts or controversial issues that the state faces. The priority in solving these issues shall be given to the citizen of the state, not a separate official. If someone tries to violate civil rights of the other citizens by means of committing a crime or reneging on commitments, the rest of the society shall protect themselves from the actions of such individual.
What is decentralized decision-making?
Decentralization is the process of redistributing or dispersing functions, powers, people or things away from a central location or authority. Decentralized decision-making in Freeland shall feature a voting system inside the virtual state based on Freeland blockchain.
Color Teal: myth or prospect?
The concept of the so-called Teal organizations (or companies) has appeared only recently. In such entities, the team works without a direct hierarchy and solves all the assignments in squads by means of self-management. There is a central body which accepts ready-made assignments and gives out tasks but no intermediate management in the system. Usually, the assignments are being distributed from the outside environment (third-party client
