I merely scanned over it, but it seems to correspond to the basic tenets of socialism, not libertarian socialism or democratic socialism per se. I think even Marxist-Leninists (nominally) advocate this.

In my opinion, the term "democratic socialism" is redundant. If the system is not completely democratic, then there is nothing "socialist" about it. While on the other hand "democratic capitalism" is but an oxymoron.
I have skimmed through it and it sounds to me what Howard Zinn advocated for. Which was a form of "democratic" socialism that borrowed all the positive tendencies from Marxism, anarchism, and so on. The only problem is that it is open to such a wide range of interpretation and is bound to create 50 more tendencies within itself.
