Anarcho-Communism on the 12 Axes

Anarcho-communism grew out of the anarchist wing of the First International in the 1870s and got its classic form from Peter Kropotkin, whose books The Conquest of Bread and Mutual Aid argued that cooperation, not competition, drives human survival. Errico Malatesta and Emma Goldman spread it through Italy and the Americas, and it was put into practice in parts of revolutionary Catalonia and Aragon in 1936. It rejects both the state and money: communes federate freely from the bottom up and share their output without wages. Unlike Marxism and Leninism, it refuses any transitional workers' state. Unlike anarcho-syndicalism, it treats unions as one tool among many, and unlike mutualism it abolishes markets entirely.

• Anarcho-Syndicalism 88%Anarcho-syndicalism seeks to abolish capitalism and the state through revolutionary labor unions, using the general strike and direct action, so that federated unions run the economy afterward.
• Libertarian Socialism 83%Libertarian socialism is a broad family of ideas that combines social ownership of the economy with radical democracy and personal freedom, rejecting both capitalism and authoritarian state socialism.
• Anarcho-Mutualism 75%Anarcho-mutualism, founded by Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, seeks a stateless market society of self-employed producers and cooperatives, linked by fair exchange, ownership by use and mutual banks offering cheap credit.
• Democratic Socialism 73%Democratic socialism aims to replace capitalism with social ownership of the economy, reached and governed through elections, civil liberties and multiparty democracy instead of revolution or one-party rule.
