The Prime Minister of India
New Delhi
Kind Attn. : Dr. Manmohan Singh
Sub : Political Feudalism
Dear Sir,
This is further to my research papers on State-Society Relations; I am now evaluating Political Feudalism, which is main cause of Corruption in the Governance system.
Political Feudalism can be understood through various aspects.
i. What is Political Feudalism?
Political Feudalism is a fabric that creates a parallel state within the Statehood. The polity of these fabrics is mainly interest group. Since interests vary, so it generates new fabric.
Political Feudalism can be based on Identity, Interest or Ideology. These create conflicts within the State-system due to diversified interests. To attain their respective goal, these fabrics create a Political Representation to Control the Political Power in a Democratic set-up.
ii. How Political feudalism works in a democratic set-up?
In a democracy, People’s Representation is based through either Political Parties or independent. Both are constitutionally viable. In any Fabric, which is based on Interest / Identity / Ideology, only have a limited approach. To maintain its fabric one needs a huge fund towards promoting, professing and sustaining its political fabric. These need a complete bureaucracy to maintain the Interest / Identity and Ideology of the respective fabric. The source of fund to maintain these fabrics are donations since they have no resource generation due to its political affiliation.
iii. What motivates Political Leaders towards corruption?
The huge expenses towards its overhead and sustainability motivate Political Corruption, which is either through direct misappropriation or through falsification of State Policy towards the respective Interest / Identity / Ideology.
iv. What are the features of these Fabrics?
Since the world is governed by two Ideologies, i.e. Liberal and Communism, so these fabrics have two common interest Ideology / Interest. But in case the fabric has flair of Identity, then it can have two Interest / Identity. We have three National Political Parties based on Interest, Identity and Ideology. Though, all three fabrics have one feature common amongst each other, but still identical from each other on basic fabric, which make them diversified in totality.
v. How these Fabrics operate?
a. In land operation
b. Overseas operation
Ideology and Interest based fabric have an Overseas control whereas Identity based fabric has Inland control. The fabric which has Interest and Identity has two way control, whereas, those have Ideology and Interest are controlled by overseas.
These Political Fabrics always play a ‘multiple State-systems within Statehood’, which has conflicts of Interest and resulting blockage in Good Governance towards Universal Survival and confuse the Polity.
vi. Division in Parliament
The biggest drawback of the Political Feudalism, it divides the Parliament towards Ruling (Government) and Opposition. This makes them into a competitive spirit that complementary, hence Parliament is divided. Division in any institution blockage its operation and hence become less productive.
vii. How these Diversities unify?
The basic reason of the Unity though diversities, is the survival of the Fabric system, through misappropriation direct or indirect method. To protect their own skin, they paralyze the Vigilance and Arbitration / Legal system.
viii. Grabbing of State Resources
In these systems, the state resources are grabbed according to ‘Might is Right’ basis, which squeeze those who do not relate to those fabric. This further creates discrimination and distinctions in the Polity and further create counter feudal within the Community.
ix. Feudal Wars.
In the wake of weak vigilance and arbitration system, the feudal wars occur either through physical violence or structural violence.
x. Control by Overseas strategist through Party command.
It is easy to control the policy and the placement of the executives by the overseas strategists through the Party command. This is generally done through facilitation by various means.
This makes State-System, Defacto.
Towards Dejure State-System
Constitution has provided checks and balances to counter the hegemony and decontrol the power towards Universal Governance and has a mixed flair of Law (Reason) and People (emotions). Legislation is an important aspect in the Governance system which represents the aspiration and requirement of the People, whereas, Judiciary governs the aspiration against distraction. (Macro-Micro Theory)
Legislation under Dejure system should be based on independent representation without any Political fabric. This representation should be based on the need of the province and work as a Liaison between Government (Executive) and Community.
Parliament represent every corner of the country through its province and division of Parliament through Opposition and Ruling make division of the country, since each member of the Parliament represent each province of the country. Anyone in the opposition means opposition that portion of the land which alienates them from the governance.
Parliament is a Collective efforts, which works towards the aspiration and requirement of the People of the country towards well-being, i.e. Survival and Security. When the representation will be based on independent candidate, then there will be no opposition or ruling difference. The opposition or support will be based on Issues and Policy and not ideology / identity / interest, since what is common amongst all is Survival and Security, which has no ideology / identity or interest affiliation.
The best skill and ability will lead the departments and ministries floating in the parliament who will have no liability to fetch the interest of Political fabric. This will evade corruption in the Legislation.
In the absence of the Fabric constraints, the Leadership will bloom and flourish towards the great creativity and ability to implement since the survival of the Leadership will be based on performance and not according to the Political Control.
Since there will be absolute disintegration of the political fabric, the political representation will be based on the performance of the individual candidate and not based on muscle and money. This will further correct the electoral process.
The development of the constituency will be done by the fund allocated to each elected representative. This will be audited and accounted.
The Head of the Legislation, i.e. Prime Minister either will have a directly elected or within the Legislative members.
The ministries will be based on either by the Committee or individual best capable amongst the Legislative members.
The independent representative in the Legislation will have firm foreign policy based on the interest of the country than based on the ideology/ interest of the feudal.
Since the representative will be independent, so they will not be able to get into malpractice and misappropriation since lone person is always alert. This will check the corruption in the Legislation and alienate Legislation from feudal mafia.
Governance will be based on Institutions and through guilds and association. This will further establish a strong vigilance and arbitration / legal system.
This will bring a participatory democracy since the role of vigilance and support, which is presently played by opposition, will be executed by the Polity. This will make Governance a Team-Work with Team Spirit.
To make the Polity accountable towards good governance, voting should be mandatory towards retaining of Political rights. This will make a complete participation in the electoral process.
Interestingly, in the absence of the Political fabric, it will be difficult for the overseas strategists to influence National Policy and Foreign Policy. Besides this there will be no compulsion to compromise with the corrupt alliance and compromising the National Interest and hence there will not be any drain of wealth to overseas banks in the foreign land.
The best thing in this system is that, it is within the Constitutional framework and does not need any amendment to replace Political Feudalism to Dejure Governance.
With best regards,
Yours faithfully,
