PARLIAMENT
The website is in a gradual launch mode.
[ Why ] – The planet and humanity need an effective, just, and democratic geopolitical system, and a new approach to create it.
[ What ] – A proposal for this system, capable of maintaining peace and solving the existential threats to the biosphere and our society.
[ How ] – A roadmap to Earth Parliament by 2035 and a fully developed global democracy by 2050.
It takes 4 bn Earth Citizens (2/3 of the world’s voters) to establish democratic legitimacy. Be one of them.
Proposal overview
The following 18 “earthwheel” images illustrate a proposed analysis, vision, and method for the creation of a sustainable, socially just, and democratic global civilisation.
[ Why ] – (wheels 1–3): The current stage in our geopolitical evolution is oppressing stateless nations and other cultural identities, and causing global paralysis. It is outdated and must be replaced by a global democracy to avoid tyranny or collapse. The questions are: What system, and how to build it?
[ How ] – (wheels 4–12): The first stage (wheels 4–6 above) separates cultural identities from justifying governance *, the next (wheels 7–12) completes the bloc level for peacekeeping and execution through subsidiarity, in parallel with building the global core.
[ What ] – (wheels 13–18): A sustainable geopolitical system emerges, with three powers and three councils in all units at every level, all interconnected through “AGORA” — the global public square for education, deliberation, and voting.
* We introduce new linguistic tools to enable a clear and precise discussion of geopolitical legitimacy.
ID=GOV denotes systems in which cultural identity legitimises governance—such as nation-states, theocracies, or ideology-based systems.
GOV//ID denotes systems in which governance is institutionally neutral toward cultural identities, while remaining inclusive of all identities that are themselves tolerant of this principle and of each other.
In symbolic terms, “=” means that a specific identity claims the right to control governance, whereas “//” means that governance and cultural identities operate in parallel: identities coexist freely, but none may legitimise control over governance. GOV//ID thus extends the principle of secularity beyond religion to all forms of cultural identity.
Without this separation, no coherent geopolitical system is possible—except through the imposition of a single identity as a global tyranny, a condition incompatible with freedom and long-term stability. And without real global governance, humanity will be unable to address the existential challenges threatening life on this planet. The transition from ID=GOV to GOV//ID is therefore a necessary condition for resolving territorial conflicts and overcoming global political paralysis, if we also wish to live in a free society.
Origin
Worried Earthlings (WE) is the informal network of concerned Earth citizens who originated the United Earth Initiative. Building on the work of thousands of thinkers, both historic and contemporary, WE articulated the moral and structural necessity of democratic global governance and developed the core ideas underlying this project.
WE have chosen to remain anonymous due to security concerns and to foster a culture focused on our shared planet and the global society, rather than on individuals. WE are convinced that the exaggerated and cynical individualism of our time, along with obsolete and anachronistic tribalism and nationalism, has become a structural trap. Seen together, these dynamics obscures the fact that many of the forces shaping individual lives now operate globally, without democratic control. Global democratic governance is necessary precisely to protect individual freedom and local societies against these forces.
The United Earth Initiative is established to develop and facilitate the institutional pathways required to create a genuine democratic geopolitical system on planet Earth, capable of resolving the current global crisis and laying the foundation for a peaceful civilization.
