This model, which is just an embryo of the future world order, gives an idea of the new system which is completely decentralized as regards local and national autonomies, but it's sufficiently clear that it is necessary that countries, cities, villages, localities and communities have to conform to the great world laws emanated by the Supreme State for the protection of the people of all the world. In the Baha'i writings, the basic concept with which these new institutions work is called "consultation".
