anarcho-communism

[redcannon]

that anarcho-communism is

1) the same as libertarian-communism (if not please tell me why)

and

2) anarcho-communism is very nearly the same as anarchism while still holding the idea "from each according to his ability to each according to his need"

if i'm wrong, please tell me why, i'd hate to go around thinking i'm something im not.

[Kropotkin Has a Posse]

Libertarian Communism and Anarcho-Communism seem to be the same thing to me. I may be mistaken too but I certainly hope not.

As far as how it is organised, it is anarchism wherin all property is owned by "everyone in general and no one in particular." There is no form of money at all, and goods are, as you say, distrubuted along principles of "from each according to his ability to each according to his need." There is no one leader, and organisation comes from voluntary associations etc. It's an anti-coercion and anti-hierarchy idea.

In reallity no one has a monopoly on terminology, all what really matters is if its the workers themselves who seize the economic instruments, neighbourhoods, place all means of production in-common, abolish social-classes, abolish capitalism and distribute resources equally, and abolish private property-- if this is what abolishes the state, then thats great. Ofcourse we should work toward getting rid of discrimination and money-- this will take time. It's cultural and needs to become unigrained.

Be weary of political parties who seize state power in the name of the masses.

Meh, revolutionary sociology will help tremendously with ridding the workers of capitalist attitudes.

That has been proven even by "lesser" revolutionary movements. Take the United States and its revolution. The American Revolution changed people's views drastically and in fact, before Shea, people where energized to go to the local town center and debate over laws.

Yes, they're closely related though not all libertarian communists are necessarily anarchists.

Anarcho-communism is a form of anarchism that stresses a classless and egalitarian communal society devoid of a state.
