The soviets did not have an answer for this
Smaller communities in charge of local production
Ahhhh but thatvis a problem when your bread basket areas are needed to feed eveyone
The crimea and unkraine areas priduced most of the grain
Each area makes a count of what it makes and what it needs, and they intertrade. Basic Ricardian economics
And if you cannot distribute efficiently enought people starve
But that does not help when you do not have the transport to get the grain where it need to go
Siberia for example
Thats where the central state steps in
tribalism
Yes and look at how well of a job they did
Or regionalism
did well for germany
As well since they only care about their local groups. Then national defense is out
Just a bunch of fiefdom armies
National defence would be task for the central state
They needed to eat something
So people it was
There wouldnt be one. As they would be to busy with their small fiefs and not care about the central state. As well a central state would nullify communism and breed another stalin, mao, or pol pot
Basically the state would take care of infrastructure, defence, justice and police, and thr regions of production
Stalin existed because he was nessesary
Not very marxist
And again the central being in charge of the defense and infrastructure just means an opening for human nature to want more
Critical theory goes out the window when you have to fight to exist
Even most marxist admitted this during ww2
The wants of the proletariat would be put on the list of needs and evaluate their importance collectivelly
Ie need a new car or need a need tractor, tractor would ve chosen
So heirarchy is ok if it means you have to fight to survive?
Hierarchy is anti communist
You just created a class
one who dictates where resources are better suited
Hierarchy will always be present in society, it's ridiculous to argue against it
A military class whos labor everyone exploits
So how can you have a classless society?
An opening for a bright eyed general to exploit
There would be the worker class, the bureaucratic class, the judiciary class and military (drafted civilians)
So there are not officers in the military?
Officers and lower enlisted
Do drafted armies not have officers?
They would not be drafted
