1) IMO, the right of transit and hospitality are missing. You would need
this to go from community A through B to C, where A may be a
green-socialist community and B klingon-warriors.
2) Will community A survive when B decides they need more space? Who could
possibly hinder them?
3) Most of us already live in such a system. Pluralistic societies consist
of many different subcultures. They only share the same room, but one can
easily live in only one world without seeing much of the others. On a
higher level, the Charta of the United Nations, the Universal Declaration
of Human Rights and several other international conventions go exactly in
your direction. Unfortunately, both plans only work when everyone observes
the rules...
