[FONT=Arial]Libertarian communism and anarcho-communism can sometimes be taken to be the same concept, but people who draw a line between the two are often referencing "council communism" when they use the word libertarian communism - meaning that under "libertarian communism" there is still a "state." Direct democracy would have control over a geographical area.
However, the line of difference even in this scenario is blurry, because communism is naturally libertarian. The adjective is just showing that you disagree with the more "authoritarian" approaches taken by Hoxha, Mao, Castro, and (arguably) Lenin. All libertarian communists prefer decentralization and federalism over nationalizations.

(Not to nit pick), but what do you mean, arguably Lenin? Lenin was disgustingly "authoritarian". I will only point to the fact that he supported one man management of Industry. Nuff said.

I have no opinion on how the workers revolution should be brought forth on amanaged, only that I feel class revoluation is nessasary. Once the revolution is over then the world would be devided into indivdual communitys, from 10 (rural locations) to 500 (urbanized centers). when each person works he gets 20 work credits per hour, 10 for personal use (private porperty?! idk, i was kind of going for a way to regulate things like milk and shoes) and 10 for the community. the community gathers their credits and buys things like buses and streetlights. Communites will also be put into regions were they share larger things like hospitals. Where the communites and idividuals buy from are the Unions. the way decisions are made is by a jury. Ages from 18 and up get called for a payed (meaning you get work credit for it) jury. They would regulate everything from the price of products to things like injustices in communites. Now if a jury was making all these laws then many people would be off at jury duty, making more availbe jobs. Also cars will be abolished. Communites would buy buses or other means of transporation. When items are bought the work credit is not traded, rather than thrown away, because after all the only way to get working credit is to work.
Sounds like Libertarian Socialism.

"As the world of the spectacle extends its reign it approaches the climax of its offensive, provoking new resistances everywhere. These resistances are very little known precisely because the reigning spectacle is designed to present an omnipresent hypnotic image of unanimous submission. But they do exist and are spreading.", The Bad Days Will End.
"(The) working class exists and struggles in all countries, and has the same enemies in all countries – the police, the army, the unions, nationalism, and the fake ‘socialism’ of the bourgeois left. It shows that the conditions for a worldwide revolution are ripening everywhere today. It shows that workers and revolutionaries are not passive spectators of inter-imperialist conflicts: they have a camp to choose, the camp of the proletarian struggle against all the factions of the bourgeoisie and all imperialisms." -ICC, Nation or Class?
is this Libertarian Communism?
ANARCHO
