A group of individuals hit upon an idea, each in his own place and from his own experiences, analyses and vision. They eventually learn of the existence of each other, their respective ideas and innovations. They establish contact with each other and star communicating about their respective work. Then they come together and agree to establish an organisation founded on their shared vision. One of the central principles of the newly established organisation however is that the membership will be determined by the existing members only and not by any institution that it has spawned to conduct its affairs. In essence therefore, they have established an exclusive club, institutionalised by statutes established by itself, for itself, whilst claiming to be pursuing the best interests of others on whom it depends for its success.
