Foundational Principles
This platform is built on anarcho-syndicalist principles that promote direct democracy and worker self-organization.
Horizontal Organization
Non-hierarchical structures where all members have equal say in decision-making.
Worker Self-Management
Workers directly control their organizations without bosses or external authorities.
Delegate Accountability
Delegates are directly accountable to their base assemblies and can be recalled.
Privacy & Security
Protection of member privacy and organizational security is paramount.
Rotating Responsibilities
Administrative roles rotate to prevent power concentration and share skills.
How It Works
Local Assemblies
Members meet in local assemblies to discuss issues, make decisions, and select delegates when needed.
Proposal Development
Proposals are drafted and refined through collective discussion, with clear documentation of decisions.
Delegate Selection
When needed, delegates are selected with specific mandates to represent the assembly at higher levels.
Section Congresses
Delegates from local assemblies meet at section congresses to coordinate and make decisions that affect the entire section.
Ratification Process
Decisions made at congresses are sent back to local assemblies for ratification, ensuring true bottom-up democracy.
International Coordination
Section delegates participate in international congresses for global coordination while maintaining local autonomy.
This federated structure ensures decision-making remains in the hands of the workers while enabling coordination at all levels without creating hierarchies.
