Civic Principles & Ethics

A practical domain for civic life: how power is made legitimate, how rights are protected, how duties are defined, and how institutions stay accountable.

Scope and boundaries

  • This domain covers civic ethics and institutional design: how societies allocate authority, protect rights, define duties, and prevent abuse.
  • It is designed to be usable across political traditions and belief systems. No spiritual or symbolic worldview is required.
  • It intersects with Âme artificielle where governance concerns overlap (oversight, transparency, harm reduction), while remaining a distinct domain focused on civic institutions and public legitimacy.
