Civic Structures

This category examines how public systems are designed to function.

Not speeches.
Not slogans.
Not personalities.

It studies the architecture beneath governance.

Constitutions.
Institutions.
Checks and balances.
Rights and duties.
Administrative incentives.

The focus is structural:

How power is limited.
How authority is distributed.
How rules shape behavior.
How design prevents concentration.

Democracy is not just voting.

It is constraint by structure.

Stability is not the absence of conflict.

It is the presence of boundaries.

Civic Structures does not debate ideology.

It studies design.

Because when structure weakens, outcomes look personal.

But the cause is architectural.
