'''De Leonism''', occasionally known as '''Marxism–De Leonism''', is a form of unionist Marxism<ref>https://www.marxists.org/archive/deleon/works/1909/3.htm</ref> developed by Daniel De Leon. De Leon combined the rising theories of American unionism in his time with [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism|orthodox Marxism]]. According to De Leonist theory, militant industrial unions (specialized trade unions) are the vehicle of class struggle. Industrial Unions serving the interests of the proletariat (working class) will bring about the change needed to establish a socialist system. |

However, in difference from other lib-left ideologies, De Leonism also believes in a political party that should, if possible, get to power by democratic elections and when in power, the unions and workers will take control of society peacefully through the passive revolution - a revolution that will be bloodless, because there isnt a state opposing this revolution. When this happens, the state will pretty quickly be unnecessary and will disintegrate itself. |
