The System
Why Rethink Everything
The industrial model treats symptoms — affordable housing, sustainable energy, fair wages — while leaving the underlying system intact. Rubania redesigns the fundamental institutions: how we organize work, how we compensate effort, how we make collective decisions. Not just food and housing, but work and compensation.
Austrian Economics Meets Permaculture
Ludwig von Mises formalized human action as purposeful behavior — the Praxion system extends this insight to cooperative settlements. Every action vector carries volition coefficients, scarcity weights, and domain namespaces. Austrian subjectivity meets ecological design principles.
The Experimental Nature
This is honestly framed: a social experiment. We don't know if the model will work at scale. What we do know is that the current system is destroying the conditions for human flourishing. Rubania is a serious attempt to build alternatives that regenerate rather than extract.
⚡ Praxion
Effort — Multidimensional action vectors. Every task tagged by Domain, weighted by scarcity, adjusted by quality. Your contribution identity as a 14-dimension map.
📊 Criterion
Quality — Epistemic scoring for deliberation contributions. Badge-gated delegation eligibility, influence decay, anti-gaming validation through anonymous peer review.
🗳️ Liquid Democracy
Voice — Delegate your vote per Domain to trusted experts. Your Energy delegate may differ from your Health delegate. Expertise accumulates political influence within competence areas.
🌐 14 Domains
Structure — Universal namespace organizing all activity: Energy, Land, Water, Construction, Produce, Animal, Health, Education, Governance, Economy, Culture, Logistics, Constitution, plus meta-domains.
🎖️ Badges
Competence — Percentile-based skill recognition: 🟢 Apprentice (>10th), 🔵 Practitioner (>50th), 🟣 Master (>90th). Gates role eligibility, enables mentorship tracking.
🎁 Devotio
Gift — Voluntary contribution layer beyond measured Praxion. Social recognition for unmeasurable gifts: kindness, inspiration, presence, beauty. The gift economy within the contribution economy.
