“Power is not an institution, and not a structure; neither is it a certain strength we are endowed with; it is the name we give to a complex strategic situation.”

Unique
Writer & Researcher in Political Systems, Institutional Theory, and Global Governance
Unique is the sole author and editor of Parliament of One. Working across themes in political systems, institutional theory, and global governance, the work reflects an ongoing engagement with structure, language, and the forces that shape collective life.
This collection consists of all publication and works of Unique throughout years continuing to publish independently—bridging academic research with public thought.
Parliament of One is an independent editorial project focused on systems, structure, and the written word.
It exists as a space for solitary authorship—where research, theory, and observation are gathered without institutional filters or external directives. This project was created to collect past, present, and developing work in a single place: essays written over years of publishing, academic contributions, and ongoing intellectual inquiries.
At its core, Parliament of One is not a blog or a portfolio. It is a forum for independent thinking—slow, serious, and unconstrained—shared in hopes that it may serve others navigating the same questions.
From the Author
This project began with the desire to gather my work into a space that allows for silence, structure, and focus—qualities increasingly rare in how ideas are shared.
Over the years, I’ve had work published across various platforms, websites, and journals. Since this process began in high school, much of my early, unpublished writing has been lost. Parliament of One is my effort to create an archive of my own: a space without imposed criteria, where I can write with autonomy—my own space, on my own terms.
I write under the name Unique, not to obscure identity, but to shift attention toward the content itself: the arguments, the questions, the form. And perhaps, in quiet nod to the Stirnerian notion: “I am Unique.”
Every text here was written in solitude, but not in isolation. These essays are shaped by study, by public dialogue, and by the persistent sense that thought has weight, even when uninvited.
Parliament of One is where that weight is placed—deliberately, piece by piece.
