Chapter 8: Specifics of the Organization of the World Commonwealth - Part 2 -
8.1. Non-bureaucratic administration
The flaw inherent in current international organizations such as the United Nations and the European Union is bureaucracy. These organizations do not have inherent sovereignty, but because of this, political positions tend to become honorary, and they have a tendency for bureaucrats to take over the practical aspects of the organization.
The World Commonwealth, as a transnational organization, must be free from such bureaucracy. As we have seen in the previous article, the reason why the World Commonwealth is based on the World Commons' Convention is to eliminate bureaucracy and thoroughly implement administration by the Commons with the Commons' Convention at its core.
The World Commons' Convention will be composed of delegates elected by each Zonal Commons' Convention, but these delegates are not bureaucratic diplomats, but rather political officials with democratic foundations who will play a central role in its operations. In addition, the Conference of the Grand-Zonal Permanent Representatives Plenipotentiary described in the previous article will act as the executive body of the World Commonwealth, guaranteeing actual authority to political officials in terms of execution as well.
Not only that, but the specific organizational structure will also aim for a non-bureaucratic operation. The Secretariat will not be an independent main organization, but will be refined into a literally practical organization that will handle the affairs of the World Commonwealth under the World Commons' Convention, and its head, the Chief Secretary, will have no authority beyond that of a practical manager.
Furthermore, the major organs in each field will not have a vertical structure like the current UN, where the Security Council and Economic and Social Council are established in parallel with the General Assembly, but will be established as permanent councils of the World Commons' Convention which has the same status as the General Assembly. Therefore, the representatives of the member Zones that run these major organs will be served concurrently by Zonal delegates to the World Commons' Convention.
In reality, the general staff of the World Commonwealth Secretariat, each major organ, and other affiliated organs are a kind of bureaucrat as civil servants of the World Commonwealth, but the number of these practical staff will be kept to a minimum, allowing delegates to the World Commons' Convention to exercise actual authority.
