| − | Each [[Worldcon]] is organized by a separate [[committee]], which is nearly always legally incorporated in the local jurisdiction. In the United States, these are usually set up as non-profit corporations. The local organizers may be standalone committees, or the Worldcon may be a project of an existing local [[club]].

| − | ''There is no continuing or central organization.'' ([[WSFS]] is unincorporated and has no officers or staff or budget.) Thus each Worldcon is entirely independent and is selected by a vote of the members of the two-years-previous Worldcon. (See [[Worldcon site selection]].) Worldcons ''do'' agree to be bound by the [[WSFS constitution]] in effect as of their selection, but this is enforced entirely by [[fannish]] public opinion. (Which is surprisingly powerful!)
