RE: How Collectivism Can Be Voluntary

in #anarchism7 years ago

Another great post. I used to identify with libertarian municipalism/democratic confederalism but ended up drifting more in the direction of the Lange-Lerner model of socialism. And I like the Fabian Society socialists and Eduard Bernstein's "evolutionary socialist" model of social democracy. I want land and industry to be collectively owned (with land value tax as ground-rent to the community and corporate tax as the communal share of industrial profits), with all members of society getting a social dividend, and police replaced by communal security services that focus on restorative justice (recompensing victims of crimes through insurance). Also, I want to replace the military with a confederation of militias. And move towards direct democracy, integrating digital direct democracy and deliberative democracy when possible.
