View source for RBE10K/Community/es

La '''Comunidad''' que implementará el diseño y el planeamiento del Proyecto EBR10K es una comunidad internacional de gente que siente sus propios valores y principios alineados con los del Proyecto EBR10K. Más allá de las circunstancias actualese y las posibilidades que tuvieran, los integrantes de esta comunidad quisieran mudarse a una de estas comunidades siendo planeadas.

El primer paso en la definición de esta comunidad será el de elegir un nombre para ella. Mientras que no es una nación ni un país, debe ser un nombre definitorio, un término que identifique y distinga a esta comunidad, especialmente del sistema de economía de mercado monetario, y además el nombre debe permitir un gentilicio de manera tal que sea utilizado para la comunidad en general y también para cada individuo que se identifique con ella, viva o no en uno de estos asentamientos.

The following guidelines can help choosing a name fit for the purpose:
# be akin to a country name, e.g. be easily translatable or pronounced in many languages, and allow for a [[w:demonym|demonym]]
# symbolise the principles and values of RBE10K's particular implementation of RBE
#* embrace oneness (me = we), and accept dynamic equilibrium
#* respect and embrace the whole of humanity and Nature
#* exalt the values of equality/horizontality, freedom/self determination/volunteerism, openness/transparency/truth, inclusiveness/compassion
#* reject patriotism, borders, privileges, bureaucracy, and property
# include in this page a conceptual description supporting each choice

== Gaia Diaspora / Gaian ==
[[w:Gaia (mythology)|Gaia]] is the primal Greek godess of the Earth. [[w:Gaia hypothesis|Gaia]] also represents the notion of the stability of Earth's natural systems, which is akin to RBE's notion of dynamic equilibrium. There is also already a [[w:Gaia Movement|Gaia Movement]], which is a network of organisations focused on sustainable practices, which is also one of the main focuses of RBE10K. There is as well a concept of [[w:Gaia philosophy|Gaia philosophy]], which proposes that living organisms improve their environment, something that Humans are decidedly not doing (from the perspective of conservation of naturally evolved processes that allowed for our own species to appear and develop), and something that RBE is committed to do: return Nature to its pristine condition. ''Gaia'', the living Earth, is a concept which is compatible with RBE's biopsychosocial nature and dynamic equilibrium, however with a component of poetry and mysticism added.

A [[w:Diaspora|Diaspora]] is a Greek word for scattering/dispersion, and is commonly used for people dispersed by whatever cause to more than one location. The nature of these communities will be that of a diaspora, i.e. people that feel connected under a cause and are dispersed throughout the world, without a land to call home other than the Earth itself. Furthermore, more than describing the scattered nature of people aligned with values and principles of RBE or RBE10K Project, ''Gaia Diaspora'' intends to intentionally identify itself as a diaspora, rejecting notions of patriotism and borders. 

''Gaians'' would be those who live all over Gaia and belonging to it, as opposed to having the Earth belong to humans. Gaians, by definition, would refuse the concept of country, and wouldn't have a flag or any other patriotic symbols. The name ''Gaia Diaspora'' then has to do with willingly renouncing from taking possession or defining boundaries, acknowledging our belonging to the Earth instead, and pledging to assisting with its restoration to its pre-industrial or pristine state.
