Libertarian Municipalism believes in a stateless, classless, society where hierarchy is reduced as much as possible and is organized into eco-communes that participate in federalism, most private property being made communal.

Bookchin would begin his break with [[File:Awaj.png]] [[Anarchism]] with his 1995 work ''[https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/murray-bookchin-social-anarchism-or-lifestyle-anarchism-an-unbridgeable-chasm Social Anarchism or Lifestyle Anarchism]'' in which he harshly criticized what he called [[File:Anin.png]] [[Anarcho-Individualism|Lifestyle Anarchism]]. This break would be cemented in 2002 with ''[https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/murray-bookchin-the-communalist-project The Communalist Project,]'' in which he declared Communalism a unique revolutionary tradition that is distinct from, but takes the best parts of, Marxism and Anarchism. Although not all adherents of Communalism consider it separate from Anarchism and as such consider themselves Anarchists. In 2004, Bookchin had [https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/various-authors-bookchin-ocalan-correspondence#toc6 brief correspondence] with [[w:Abdullah Öcalan|Abdullah Öcalan]], an imprisoned Kurdish revolutionary leader and student of Bookchin, who went on to formulate [[File:Demcon.png]] [[Democratic Confederalism]] as a practical application of Communalism in Kurdistan. However, Bookchin could not communicate much with Öcalan because of a mix of his declining health and Öcalan's solitary confinement, dying in 2006.

 

 

 

This ideology advocates for a social union between french workers, no matter their cultural alignment : in the Municipalist Movement, members can share [[File:Trad.png]] traditionalist and [[File:Prog-u.png]] progressive views, as long as they are not based upon identity politics, and as long as they advocate for a Municipalist ideology and praxis.

This regional tendency considers the possibility of different transitional status inherent to [[File:Socan2.png]] [[Social Anarchism]] and [[File:Libsoc.png]] [[Libertarian Socialism]] before achieving total [[File:GE.png]] [[Gift Economy]]. No matter the form it takes, the economy has to function through the [[File:Directdem.png]] [[Democracy|Direct Democracy]] of the Councils and the Assemblies.

This democracy hegemony can be attained by the creation of multiple democratic and popular assemblies. This can either be done through local elections or through local populations looking for political autonomy.

The main goal is to radicalize the practice of Democracy in order to show to the people that autogestion is not an illusion nor impossible.

*[[File:Demcon.png]] [[Democratic Confederalism]] - My child and an attempt at applying me to the real world.

*[[File:Aneco.png|frameless]] [[Eco-Anarchism]] - We're basically the same ideology, although I'm a bit more leftist.

 

===Mixed===

*[[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism]] - Good analysis, though kind of outdated.

*[[File:Soul.png]] [[Soulism]] - Based views, but you are still too focused on yourself, and you are often sleeping, instead of doing something useful. Why not be at least a communal night shift janitor?

 

===Negative===

*[[File:Anin.png]] [[Anarcho-Individualism]], [[File:Anego.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism]] & [[File:Anpostleft.png]] [[Post-Leftism]] - Lifestylist trash!

*[[File:Deepe.png]] [[Deep Ecology]] - Fake ecology.

*[[File:Tucn-EcoAuth.png]] [[Eco-Authoritarianism]] - Oxymoron.

*[[File:Ecocap.png]] [[Eco-Capitalism]] - Another oxymoron.

*[[File:Illeg.png]] [[Illegalism]] - Worst lifestylist scum, fuck you.

*[[File:Anprim.png]] [[Anarcho-Primitivism]] & [[File:Prim.png]] [[Primalism]] - Your analysis of primitive life is completely ahistorical!
