 Municipalism  (social movement)   | |
|---|---|
Municipalism is a social movement and political theory that envisions local communities as the foundation for an ecological society, where citizens actively manage social and economic affairs directly rather than relying on representatives.
Municipalism is about people collectively imagining their lives, acting locally and thinking globally, trying to live beyond crisis and structural oppression – many ways to co-create a good life for all.
In a world dominated by the crises of capitalism and nation states, degrowth and municipalism are gaining momentum. Both are movement multipliers – spaces where political causes intersect.[1]
