All Autonomist And Council Communism

Marxist currents emphasizing workers' direct self-organization in factories and communities outside party and trade union hierarchies, running from early twentieth century council communism's break with Bolshevik party discipline through the later Italian and French autonomist and operaist theory of the workers' and social movements of the later twentieth century. This group gathers theorists who share a common emphasis on autonomous, self-organized working class power against both capitalist and party bureaucratic control, distinguishing them from the party-centered Leninist tradition gathered elsewhere in this atlas's Marxist and critical theory group.
