'''Libertarian Socialism''' (Also known as ''' Stateless Socialism''' or '''Free Socialism''') encompasses a wide range of ideologies, but mainly rejects the conception of socialism as a statist form where the state bureaucracy retains centralized control of the economy. Workers within a libertarian socialist society have '''Direct Democratic control '''over the means of production. [[File:Libms.png]] Some types of Libertarian Socialism believe that '''Markets '''can exist within a '''Socialist '''society, as a libertarian form of [[File:Marketsoc.png]] [[Market Socialism]], while others, such as [[File:Libmarx.png]] Libertarian Marxism, and [[File:Ancom.png]] [[Anarcho-Communism]], do not. Some Libertarian Socialists wish to abolish the state altogether, like the aforementioned Anarcho-Communism, while others, such as [[File:Minsocf.png]] [[Minarcho-Socialism]] believe that a small state can exist within a libertarian socialist framework.

Line 226: Line 216:
In the early part of this period, libertarian socialism was equal in influence to both [[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social democracy]] and [[File:Commie.png]] [[Marxism|communism]]. Demonstrating this influence was the formation of the Anarchist International, which drew in many anti-capitalists. Using this new organizational power, they were able to position themselves against both of their ideological rivals for the next 50 years.

Prior to the Russian Revolution, libertarian socialists played a crucial role in campaigning for land reform, and against Tsarist authoritarianism. These campaigns were led by the [[File:Agsoc.png]] [[Agrarian Socialism|Narodniks]], [[File:Esers.png]] [[Democratic Socialism|the Left Social Revolutionary Party]], and various anarchist collectives. These campaigns helped to instigate the Russian Revolutions of 1905 and 1917. Unfortunately, in the latter revolution, when the [[File:Orthlen.png]] [[Leninism|Bolsheviks]] seized control, they purged libertarian socialists left and right, leading to their political irrelevancy in Russia.

In the 1936 Spanish Revolution, the [[File:AnSynd.png]] [[Anarcho-Syndicalism|CNT]] was crucial to the subsequent creation of libertarian socialist communities and collectives within that country. These collectives allowed for delegates to take charge in certain situations, with the caveat of direct recall. Unfortunately for the CNT, when [[File:Franco.png]] [[Francoism|Francisco Franco]] came to power in Spain, the [[File:AnSynd.png]] [[Anarcho-Syndicalism|CNT]] went into a rapid decline.

Similar to [[File:Auton.png]] [[Autonomism|autonomism]], libertarian socialism believes in giving the average person as much freedom as is possible. To do this, [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalism]] must be abolished. It will be replaced with decentralized communities in which the means of production are controlled by the workers. Additionally, workers militias will be formed to help ensure true liberty is attained.

Libertarian Market Socialism (LibMarkSoc) is an economically left-wing, libertarian, and generally culturally progressive ideology who can be described as a more moderate version of [[File:Mutalist.png]] [[Mutualism]]. LibMarkSoc believes in the libertarian principle of limited government combined with the economic view that while the means of production should belong to the workers who use them, goods and services should be provided through a market economy contributed to by worker-owned businesses and co-ops. They support local direct democracy, with a limited, higher level federal government.

Libertarian Marxism (LibMarx) is an economically far-left, libertarian, revolutionary, internationalist and progressive ideology who supports worker ownership of the means of production and eventual transition into a stateless, moneyless and classless society as per typical [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism|Marxist]] thought, however, he supports a decentralized approach where the working class lead the revolution themselves as opposed to acting with the aid of a vanguard party, and strongly emphasizes the libertarian and anti-authoritarian aspects of Marx's writings, specifically in his later work. It is almost always coupled with culturally left leanings.

Basically the epitome of "fuck you, I won't do what you tell me". Annoys other socialists by complaining about how statist they are. Hangs out with other non-capitalist LibLeft ideologies a lot, although she frequently ignores them when they get into debates.

Revision as of 23:19, 9 January 2024

Not to be confused with Social Libertarianism or Liberal Socialism.

"If we don't believe in free expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all."

Libertarian Socialism (Also known as Stateless Socialism or Free Socialism) encompasses a wide range of ideologies, but mainly rejects the conception of socialism as a statist form where the state bureaucracy retains centralized control of the economy. Workers within a libertarian socialist society have Direct Democratic control over the means of production. Some types of Libertarian Socialism believe that Markets can exist within a Socialist society, as a libertarian form of Market Socialism, while others, such as Libertarian Marxism, and Anarcho-Communism, do not. Some Libertarian Socialists wish to abolish the state altogether, like the aforementioned Anarcho-Communism, while others, such as Minarcho-Socialism believe that a small state can exist within a libertarian socialist framework.

History

20th century

In the early part of this period, libertarian socialism was equal in influence to both social democracy and communism. Demonstrating this influence was the formation of the Anarchist International, which drew in many anti-capitalists. Using this new organizational power, they were able to position themselves against both of their ideological rivals for the next 50 years.

Before the Russian Revolution, libertarian socialists played a crucial role in campaigning for land reform, and against Tsarist authoritarianism. These campaigns were led by the Narodniks, the Left Social Revolutionary Party, and various anarchist collectives. These campaigns helped to instigate the Russian Revolutions of 1905 and 1917. Unfortunately, in the latter revolution, when the Bolsheviks seized control, they purged libertarian socialists left and right, leading to their political irrelevancy in Russia.

In the 1936 Spanish Revolution, the CNT was crucial to the subsequent creation of libertarian socialist communities and collectives within that country. These collectives allowed delegates to take charge in certain situations, with the caveat of direct recall. Unfortunately for the CNT, when Francisco Franco came to power in Spain, the CNT went into a rapid decline.

Post-World War II

After the war, the ideology was ostracized from the labor movement, at least in part due to its inability to wrest control over unions from communists, social democrats, or business unionists. Additionally, because of the seeming ease at which reformist unions gained their rights, they felt no need to engage in the radical politics espoused by libertarian socialists.

Beliefs and Theory (WIP)

Similar to autonomism, libertarian socialism believes in giving the average person as much freedom as possible. To do this, capitalism must be abolished.

Variants

Libertarian Market Socialism

Flag of Libertarian Market Socialism

Libertarian Market Socialism (LibMarkSoc) is an economically left-wing, libertarian, and generally culturally progressive ideology who can be described as a more moderate version of Mutualism. LibMarkSoc believes in the libertarian principle of limited government combined with the economic view that while the means of production should belong to the workers who use them, goods and services should be provided through a market economy contributed to by worker-owned businesses and co-ops. They support local direct democracy, with a limited, higher-level federal government.

Libertarian Marxism

Flag of Libertarian Marxism

Libertarian Marxism (LibMarx) is an economically far-left, libertarian, revolutionary, internationalist, and progressive ideology that supports worker ownership of the means of production and eventual transition into a stateless, moneyless, and classless society as per typical Marxist thought, however, he supports a decentralized approach where the working class leads the revolution themselves as opposed to acting with the aid of a vanguard party, and strongly emphasizes the libertarian and anti-authoritarian aspects of Marx's writings, specifically in his later work. It is almost always coupled with culturally left leanings.

Personality

The epitome of "fuck you, I won't do what you tell me". Annoys other socialists by complaining about how statist they are. Hangs out with other non-capitalist LibLeft ideologies a lot, although she frequently ignores them when they get into debates.

Really into punk rock and RATM.
