"It is the well-being, not of individuals, but of the community which makes a State great"

Communitarianism is a non-quadrant political philosophy and ideology emphasizing the wellbeing of and the importance of the community as the primary social unit.

Communitarianism generally advocates Syncretic positions on economics and social issues. He will typically stress the idea that the left-right binary of politics is holding politics back, as well as arguing that policies from both sides of the spectrum are complementary and necessary to benefit the community. Many ideologies that are traditionally socially right-wing and economically left-wing without straying into outright Collectivism could be considered Communitarian in nature.

Communitarianism can be contrasted with Collectivism, with whom he is often compared, in that Communitarianism usually stresses cohesion and outward wellbeing rather than submission to a collective. He may view individual and collective interests as ultimately complementary, as it is in the best interest of individuals to participate in and align their lives with society. In this way he is not fundamentally anti-individualist, but rather believes absolute individualism is harmful when it contradicts with the common good.

Communitarianism as placed on a Nolan Chart, considered the meeting point of community-based social and economic alignment.

The modern theories of Communitarianism were elaborated in the 1980s by several political philosophers of the Radical Centrist school of thought, based primarily on descriptive statements on the perceived falsehood of Classical Liberal conceptions of society as a purely voluntary and rational association arising from individual choice. After a brief two decade-long life in academia, the ideology has largely fallen out of favour as a strict philosophy.

Frenemies

  • Nouvelle Droite - Big fans of my social theories, but racism tears us apart.
  • Cultural Nationalism - You talk a lot of sense from time to time, immigrants can threaten our society but diversity can also be a strength and you do divide our society just like how immigrants do.
  • Multiculturalism - And you have the exact opposite problem, we can't just let anyone come in we need to integrate so that our community is whole.
  • Socialism - Your economy for all not just the few sounds good but you tend to divide the community between the proletariat and the bourgeoise, we all need to get along and work together.
  • Localism - Sounds good, but what about larger scale communities like the nation, cities and the world?
  • Third Way - In theory you are really great, merging conservatism with socialism, but in reality you just merge him with him.
  • Progressivism - The march for black lives begins with all of us, as a community, but your identity politics is quite divisive.
  • Traditionalism - Traditions only have value when they uphold the common good, or else they are just an excuse to exclude members of the community.
  • Social Democracy - In practice you tend to implement my vision the best, but I still find you too individualist like him.
  • Conservative Socialism - Generally good but I am not a fan of your embrace of conservative idpol and divisive socialism. Why can't you be like him?

Enemies

  • Anarcho-Egoism - Society is good, dammit!
  • Anarcho-Individualism - Selfish prick.
  • Illegalism & Avaritionism - Absolute menaces to the community. I can only hope that these bastards get caught before they cause more damage.
  • Conservative Liberalism - Disgrace to the conservative name, you divide society and sell entire countries off to the highest bidder.
  • Neoliberalism - Just the above but even worse because you support mass immigration and social permissiveness without Socdem's responsibility.
  • Marxism–Leninism - I get the appeal of a strong state to protect the working class but your hateful, destructive revolutionism and genocide divides communities along class lines.
  • Capitalism - Sorry but the community is more important than profit.
  • Syndicalism - Owners, managers and the unemployed are also part of our community.
