'''Council Communism''', also called '''Dutch-German Left Communism'''<ref>https://libcom.org/files/dutchleft.pdf</ref>, or simply '''Councilism'''<ref>https://marx200.org/en/marxismus-denkt-ein-zwei-viele-marx/councilism-1920s</ref>, is a particular strain of left communism that emphasizes the role of worker's councils in organizing both the revolution itself and as a foundation of post-capitalist society. This direct proletarian control over production and distribution (Where the councils take control over the economy) is seen by Council Communists as the true character of the dictatorship of the proletariat.

Council communists differ widely on the specifics, but they all agree that, generally, the association of free and equal producers can only be achieved by the system of workers councils.

Council Communism, like the name, implies really likes councils and will usually insist other leftists to get into a Council together before deciding anything.

*[[File:Trot.png]] [[Trotskyism]] - We consider Trotsky the most able spokesman for Bolshevism, and he should have been Lenin’s successor. By his revolutionary fervor Trotsky captivated all the dissidents that Stalinism had thrown out of the Communist Parties, and in inoculating them with the Bolshevik virus it rendered them almost incapable of understanding the great new tasks of the proletarian revolution.
