[edit] Simple Principles for World Revolution
- Eliminate all intermediaries between the individual worker and the society that consumes their labor so that the relation is one living conscious being to another.
- Production for use-value¹ (rather than exchange value) of socially necessary goods and services transparently accounted in a common money based on labor time which working people create themselves.
- A pragmatic transitional Program but one that never compromises the most rapid advancement to the realization of these two end goals (political disintermediation and de-privatisation of the means of production).
So for example the first principle might be worked out at lower levels than provincial or national level before regionally or internationally but from the beginning it should sweep clean private tyrannies and conspiracies at lower levels. And it might not be able to be applied at the local level until there is sufficient understanding of how to do so. But an advancement in understanding is itself a sufficient gain that as it builds up incrementally a simultaneous withering away of collapsing structures of the old society can be anticipated. Similarly the fiat money of the nation-state system can co-exist with the new relegated to its proper sphere.

¹Clarifying also that a bifurcated post revolutionary situation is assumed where the sphere of reproduction is distinct from socially unnecessary production which is relegated to reformulated capital.
[edit] A Religious Definition of Communisms
That spectrum of conceptions of the organization of society, in which it, society as a whole, has effectively reached full self-consciousness, transcending those objectifications of the other vestigial in socialisms and the hallmark of pre-socialist social orders, in a pure relation of the individual to society, not just the nation state, local power elites, revolutionary cadres, etc. but the totality of living beings of at least one's species of origin. 72.228.177.92 (talk) 15:11, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
