Land Boundaries

Neighbours are prone to dispute over the position of the boundary between their lands. Fence posts can have a habit of creeping one way or the other, leading to an unhealthy resentment that is for the most part buried beneath an ambient feeling of mutual distrust.

For this reason, in the society defined by the Draft Manifesto, boundaries are administrated as follows:

1. The position of a boundary is defined by outsiders.
2. No two shares of land can have a common boundary. A buffer zone of common land must separate shares. This is to allow the traveller free passage over the whole Earth, and space where he may comfortably break his journey along the way.
3. Land boundaries are marked out with marker posts, which are of a universally recognised design. Boundary posts are physically put in place also by outsiders.
