Öksy Confederation

The Öksy Confederation is a loose alliance of the various Öksy communities.

Territories

Seat of Government: White Planet, Öksy system, Core Worlds (Delta Quadrant).

An unknown number of systems bordering the Galactic Core.

Executive branch

The Öksy Confederation is a type of a "controlled anarchy" based on principles of federative self-governance. The common goal of Öksy Confederation members is the elimination of the state, hired labor, inequality, private property, exploitation, authoritarianism, greed, and all oppressive laws, including the laws of physics, along with the widespread replacement of commodity-money relations with relations based upon principles of mutual equality, solidarity and fraternity. This is to be achieved through the collaborative planning of self-managing teams of workers, tenants, consumers, farmers, students, random bystanders, pensioners and the unemployed.

The Confederation was founded at a conference on the planet Äitmik, the Öksy homeworld, attended by representatives from five different federations. After the conference had debated for seven months, they agreed on a Memorandum of Association and Cooperation, which was the basis upon which the later lack of programming, structure, and basic rules of activity were established. Hasseli Passeli Mikko Sasseli was voted the Non-Binding Chairperson of the Öksy Anti-State, although this can change at any given moment.

Locally elected councils were then formed. Local councils assign the duties of determining solutions to the problems of both temporary and permanent group coordination. All positions are not constant in the local councils. Therefore, at the local council level, there is a constant reshuffling of posts either by the Board, or upon the personal initiative of the party.

Several months after the conference, a significant number of people voted through direct democracy to break away from the Confederation, forming the Union of Öksy Federations in a conference lasting nine months. The Interplanetary Öksy Union of Confederations is also expected to declare its independence from the Öksy Confederation and the Union of Öksy Federations at any moment now, in a conference that has lated for years.

Approach and philosophy

The Öksy Confederation strives toward the following:

• the widespread introduction of direct democracy
• the transfer of full key decisions about the public life of assemblies of workers, students, pensioners, space aliens and other groups
• the creation of coordinating councils for the social control over production, housing, education and all other spheres of life, strictly subordinated to elected assemblies (via binding mandates and the right of withdrawal)
• the autonomy of any ethnic and religious communities, provided they reject all authoritarian institutions and hierarchies, including but not limited to ethnic traditions and religious practices.
