Kázmér Doctrine on Patriation of Liberated Slaves
Chapter One
Article I
Clause 1 - Nations signatory to the "Kázmér Doctrine," by the act of signing do signify that they prohibit Trafficking in Human Persons within their borders and spheres of influence, openly condemn it before the world, and are ready to take the next humanitarian step and help create a bastion of hope.
Clause 2 - The Kázmér Doctrine neither prohibits nor endorses using military action to liberate slaves. It is a humanitarian effort completely independent from national foreign policies, activities, and methods for liberation of slaves. The focus is on transitioning the freed peoples into their new freedom in a manner that gives them the resources to do and become what they were previously not free to do and be.
Clause 3 - Nations signatory to the "Kázmér Doctrine" hereby identify themselves as willing to accept freed peoples as citizens, and aid in the processes that prepare them to take their place as citizens of the free world.
Article II
Clause 1 - Peoples freed by the signatory nations should be sent for processing at a centralized location. However, this does not prohibit nations from making a private offer of citizenship up front, so long as it is an option and not forced upon them.
Clause 2 - Freed peoples should be documented and recorded, and given food, clothing, shelter, and medical attention as appropriate and operationally feasible. Access to the International Red Cross and religious clergy should be provided. Signatory nations agree to meet these standards when making a private offer of citizenship.
-- 1: Food and water should be provided en route, but sparingly to prevent aggravation of any medical conditions, especially from malnutrition or allergies.
-- 2: Shelter should be made available within two (2) hours of arrival. FUSCHIA recommends keeping large supplies of disposable paper scrubs on hand to clothe them until more permanent clothing can become available.
-- 3: Medical and psychological triage: within four (4) hours of arrival, or as soon after as is operationally possible, this being a top priority within that time frame.
Clause 3 - Freed peoples should undergo a screening process to determine their fitness for entering free society in order to protect both the person and society at large.
-- 1: Examination by a medical provider and a social worker should be done to determine if the person is medically clear to proceed. Either may recommended a psychological consult if the question is raised as to whether the person may be a danger to themselves or others. The medical provider must ensure that the person does not have any communicable disease or medical condition likely to deteriorate in 28 days, and is responsible for disposition to appropriate care in patients who are suspected of carrying a contagion. Patients with a physical condition that prevents them from sufficiently caring for themselves must be accounted for, and the social worker must ensure that arrangements are made for continuity of care for patients who fall into this category.
-- 2: Access to the International Red Cross should be made available during this time in order to enable them to make contact with persons who should be made aware of their status.
-- 3: It is highly recommended to have chaplains and religious clergy present to tend to the spiritual needs of the freed peoples. The focus should be on spiritual comfort of the individual, and therefore, religious proselytization should be refrained from unless the freed person brings up the subject of conversion.
+++ a. This does not prevent clergy from raising philosophical issues specific to the freed persons voiced concerns.
+++ b.No personnel shall be prohibited from sharing their religious views, so long as it is phrased in the context of what they personally believe, and the freed person does not object to their expression. If a freed person expresses objection to hearing what the personnel says, discussion on the subject should be discontinued immediately.
+++ c. Personnel who choose to share their religious views should be careful to remove themselves from any appearance of coercion, as some freed persons may not be of behavioral status to openly object.
-- 4: Educational and occupational screenings should be performed to determine both a rudimentary work history and education level of the freed person. This may determine what remediational education or what certifications may be necessary for them to perform their trade, or if another course of vocational education may be necessary.
Chapter Two
Article I
Clause 1 - Once a freed person shall be medically and socially cleared, the process of finding them a permanent home shall be the focus.
Clause 2 - If a freed person desires repatriation to their homeland, and it is both operationally and safely possible, it should be done with all haste.
Clause 3 - In the event that Clause 2 is an unsuitable option, the freed person should be offered information on all signatory nations. If the freed person expresses desire to apply for citizenship of another signatory nation, the host nation shall be required to start and follow through the process, making all effort to facilitate patriation.
Clause 4 - If neither Clause 2 nor Clause 3 are desired, the freed peoples may form an organized group of 20,000 or more and may apply for organization into a new nation.
-- 1. A plan or charter must be written, and voted upon by the peoples to be ruled. Definition of who may vote may be defined by the plan, so long as all who vote will be officially moved to the new nation.
-- 2. Once approved by those consented to be ruled, the charter must be ratified by a quorum of not less than five nations. However, for simplicity sake, the quorum must consist of an odd number of nations no matter what the size. The quorum size may be dependent upon how many signatory nations vote. In the event of an even quorum, the vote shall remain open in 24-hour increments to properly allow for a deciding vote.
-- 3. Any nation created under Clause 4 must ratify the Kázmér Doctrine on Patriation of Liberated Slaves, enabling the furtherance of the very mechanism by which they were formed.
Article II
Clause 1 - A central processing facility will be created at Phoenix City, New Alfegos, in the region of Nova Minor. The Fegosian Union will bear the cost and operation of initially setting up said facility.
Clause 2 - Having a central facility created, all signatory nations who encounter liberated slaves shall send said persons to the facility at Phoenix City, excepting those who choose to join the liberating nation under private agreement.
Clause 3 - The FUPF shall provide for internal security and law enforcement of Phoenix City until such time as a competent domestic Law Enforcement force can be fully employed to perform said function.
Clause 4 - The FURRF shall provide for the common defense of the centralized facilities in New Alfegos, and signatory nations shall augment them with national forces as necessary to defend it against invasion. While no concrete standard shall be established for the volume or nature of national forces to be committed in the event of an emergency, all signatory nations have a responsibility to aid the common defense of these facilities as a matter of national honor, in whatever manner necessary to counter the threats to it.
Chapter Three
Article I
Clause 1 - The Board of Phoenix City shall be served by two permanent members reserved for the Fegosian Union, and at least three non-FU members in order to form the odd number 5-or-more quorum required for international proceedings.
Clause 2 - All quorum members of the Board must be in good standing with the "Kázmér Doctrine", having no action pending against them in reference to slavery or any related issues.
Clause 3 - The quorum will have the authority to make amendments to the "Kázmér Doctrine" in order to preserve and sustain the pursuit of it's purposes.
