    Can anyone point me to some good sources for non-state socialsm? I don’t see how you would protect the society from non-socialist individuals without a state

      I think of non-state socialism as anarchism or syndicalism. Unless they mean post state socialism… but that’s just communism

      I’m personally a fan of Bookchin social ecology, also because is something that we can experiment immediately instead of wishing for a revolution that will create a “good” dictatorship and just hope that the new authoritarian state will give up its power so easily, but there are a lot of other theories if you’re interested :)

          For Bookchin theory I would suggest his “ The Ecology of Freedom: The Emergence and Dissolution of Hierarchy” and any work on the experimentation of democratic confederalism by Kurdish, there is a quite famous Italian cartoonist, Zerocalcare, that made a docu-comic called “Kobane Calling”, if you want something more detailed there are the writings of Abdullah Ocalan
