Eh, it would try to
it's hard to get right apparently
No it won't, it will create a red bureaucracy that becomes the new capitalist class, it could be even worse with the introduction of state capitalism like the USSR and China did. Bakunin foresaw this told Marx and warned about it in his writing and despite all of that it still happened. States are oppressive and the working class cannot be free under one.
Federative, grass roots, direct democratic structures
So we democratize your workplace and then your workplace becomes a political organ for the new commune
you need a large international bureaucratic apparatus to deal with global issues though
perhaps even on a national scale
Not bureaucratic filled with career politicians, but delegates sent and elected from the working class themselves
they would be directly recallbale
Exactly why revolution
And when setting up a new system
You need specialists and state servants that are dedicate tho, you can't run a large apparatus like that without qualified officials
You do not want a large apparatus
the issue of corruption must be tackled effectively through control and transparency
No
yeah you don't want it but you NEED it
How do you need it?
how can your thousands of little councils deal with something like global warming?
something that requires global coordination and action?
or disasters of massive scales
They elect members from those councils to go to a regional council and the regional council elects someone to go to a national council and then they elect someone to go to international councils
but that is in effect a government body, and it needs a bureaucracy to function and implement its policies
A computer determining allocation of resources is not a state
and then you have a global bureaucratic organization run by representatives again
It is not a bureaucracy because people are directly elected and are recallable after the issue is done
computers cannot answer human questions and issues
Meaning they do not hold a permanent title
those people won't be able to do all the work
Then they can open up volunteer positions for working committees
they need expert advisers, bureaucrats to delegate work and research and to draft proposals
and oversee implementation
That can all be done by a working comittee working on one issue that dissolves after the issue
but that is extremely inefficient and disorganized
and you can't deal with urgent issues requiring immediate action well
Not really, it allows for the working class to directly elect who they want dealing with problems
Which issues?
you can't invent new processes and find and vet the right people at any given time easily
you need an institution of some sort i think
it should be controlled by the people of course
You do not vet or find
they come to the working group
