Foundation of our worldview

Our struggle unites people of different worldviews: we see the world and

the role of a person in it in different ways, as well as we evaluate the

course of history in different ways, adhere to different philosophies

and treat religion differently. However, in different ways we came to

the same result. We all consider universal libertarian values, detailed

below, and recognize the revolutionary struggle for their implementation

as one of the most important tasks of humanity at the present stage of

its existence.

Self-government

Our goal is the abolition of public authorities. Instead of them we will

create boards which will unite people by the place of their residence.

These boards will organize meetings and during these meetings people

will make decisions concerning all issues of local life and allocate

working groups for their execution.

General meetings at the place of residence will also resolve issues that

go beyond the area or settlement in which their participants live. In

order to coordinate the interests of residents of different areas,

settlements and regions, people at general assemblies will appoint

delegates and supply them with instructions. The decisions of the boards

will be coordinated at the delegates’ meetings, where they will exchange

decisions made at general meetings and look for a solution that would

suit everyone. The delegates then return to their collectives for final

approval of these decisions.

Individualism and collectivism

A false understanding of individualism and collectivism, as well as the

speculative opposition of a person and society, is a product and tool of

a hierarchical society.

We are collectivists, because we advocate the organization of society on

the principles of solidarity, mutual trust and mutual responsibility.

Overcoming the alienation between people and introducing the principles

of brotherhood / sisterhood into social practices is the urgent task of

mankind.

At the same time, we are individualists, because we insist on the

equality of all members of any team, mutual respect for each individual

and his or hers personal autonomy. We stand for the possibility of a

person to build their life path independently and realize the freedom of

choice.

All questions relating only to a person themself will be decided by him

or her individually, all issues affecting the collective — jointly, with

all members of the collective.

Living space

It is very important to reorganize the living space of a person. The

modern look of our habitat has been formed as a result of the

centralization of the economy and administrative functions in the

megalopolis — it is uncomfortable and traumatic for humans and not

adapted to the harmonious existence of the human community, in addition,

it is hostile to natural complexes.

An important task is the humanization of the human environment — the

creation of smaller settlements, in which modern infrastructure will be

combined with a creative approach to architecture and landscape

organization, as well as a careful attitude to nature. The

reorganization of human settlement will be facilitated by political and

economic decentralization.

Economy

In the economic sphere, we intend to seek public ownership of the means

of production and consumption. Instead of private property, the free use

of the products of labor by all members of society will be introduced,

and, at the same time, personal property will also be preserved.

Distinctive feature of personal property is that it is only for personal

use without making profit. The basis for production planning should be

the actual requests of people expressed through orders. Monetary

turnover in that case will be replaced by direct movement of product and

service from manufacturer to customer. It means a rejection of all

cornerstones of a capitalis market economy. It is a refusal to focus on

solvent demand.

The economy of libertarian communism focuses on the needs of all groups

of the population, including those that need special conditions (people

with severe disabilities, the elderly, etc.), social security for

everyone, the free accessibility of any kind of necessary services

(education, medicine, transportation , housing and other).

Culture

The spiritual world of man will be freed from the domination of the

media, popular culture, fashion and all that hinders their independent

self-realization. Instead of the passive consumption of capitalist

pseudo-culture, the free creative expression of each person should be

affirmed.

Human and nature

We are supporters of minimizing damage to the environment from human

activities. We support harmonious coexistence of society and nature. The

need to humanize production and rationally overcome the centralization

and specialization of labor is obvious for us.

Internationalism

We are supporters of internationalism, the union of the oppressed. We

are opposed to nationalism and other ideologies that assert the

superiority of some people over others, dividing nations and hardening

them against each other.

Denying nationalism, at the same time, we believe that any person has

the right to their ethnic, cultural or other identity, if she or he does

not consider other human communities to be worse than their own.

Antimilitarism

We are opposed to any wars unleashed by states, regardless of the goals

that the governments of these states declare. Wars benefit only the

privileged strata of society; for all others, they only bear cruelty,

death and destruction.

Against discrimination

We are supporters of the real provision of equal opportunities for men

and women in everyday life, study, work. We stand for the joint struggle

against any inequality and oppression, for the complete equality of

people regardless of their age, gender, race, sexual orientation and

attitude to religion.

Revolution

The implementation of the project outlined above is possible through a

social revolution. We understand the social revolution as the entry of

revolutionary forces into direct confrontation with the system of

oppression and exploitation — with the state and capital — and as we

defeat them — the creation of new public institutions corresponding to

libertarian principles. In all likelihood, a revolutionary confrontation

will not go without a military clash, due to the desire of those in

power to maintain their privileges by all means.

More important than confrontation is the creative aspect of the social

revolution — the creation of a new society. We are aware that the

libertarian institutions cannot be created in a single-step and

directive manner. However, we set ourselves the task of introducing them

into life as soon as possible. In the territories liberated from

oppressors, the revolutionary forces bear the responsibility of being

the main initiators and organizers of social and economic

transformation.
