Libertarian Municipalism

Libertarian Municipalism is a political philosophy advocating for local communities to self-govern directly through participatory democracy. It emphasizes the decentralization of power, encouraging residents to form neighborhood assemblies that make decisions collectively. These local councils can then federate to address broader issues, with the goal of replacing hierarchical government structures with decentralized, horizontal networks. The approach aims to empower communities, foster democratic engagement, and create a more egalitarian society by prioritizing local control and mutual cooperation over top-down authority.
