Anarcho-Syndicalism on the 12 Axes

Anarcho-syndicalism took shape in France in the 1890s around the General Confederation of Labor, whose Charter of Amiens (1906) declared unions the basis of the future society. Fernand Pelloutier and later Rudolf Rocker set out its theory, and its largest movement was Spain's CNT, which collectivized factories and farms in Catalonia and Aragon during the Spanish Civil War. Workers organize by industry, make decisions in assemblies, and refuse electoral politics in favor of strikes, boycotts and sabotage. After the revolution the same unions would coordinate production. It differs from De Leonism by rejecting parties and elections, and from anarcho-communism mainly in method: the union, rather than the commune, is the core organ of struggle and of the new economy.
