Communitarian organizations are primarily identified by the way they were founded, i.e. by (unelected) individuals who claim to represent ‘the community’ without an actual mandate – be it a local, regional, national or international ‘community’; and by their founding documents, i.e. treaties, constitutions and charters that have not been reviewed, and that have not been approved (no mandate has been given), by the public before those documents became part of the communitarian (community) law system.
Communitarian organizations can also be identified by their policies and how they implement, and enforce, their policies. In nearly all cases, policies are determined without the public’s involvement and, thus, without its consent, and are implemented by the organizations their ‘community’.
