I guess the idea is that centralized organizations aren't required. Once we get rid of private property in the means of production (a result of abolishing the state), in this theory we can spontaneously form a collective community to govern ourselves (because it's private property that divides us). We'd all share everything, as in William Morris' NEWS FROM NOWHERE. But I don't see how it would work. > Your outline seems to work. I defer to you. thanks. It's nice to be deferred to now and then.
