In the 72 days of its existence, the Paris Commune of 1871 was a political and social laboratory where Parisians would experiment with radically democratic urban self-government. Various radical theorists and traditions have claimed the Commune as their own: from the well-known account of Karl Marx and Lenin’s State and Revolution to the anarchists Mikhail Bakunin or Peter Kropotkin, and from the council communists in Germany around the end of the Great War to the soixante-huitards in France.
In Communalism as a Democratic Repertoire Gaard Kets and Mathijs van de Sande bring together historians, sociologists, political scientists, theorists, and philosophers to reconstruct how "the Commune" has continued to serve as a source of inspiration to different movements and tendencies throughout the past 150 years, and how communalist thought and practices help us reimagine what radical democracy may look like today. Divided into three parts, contributors begin by exploring how the Paris Commune shaped political debates and influenced various theoretical oeuvres as well as political practices. Part II develops communalist ideas or strategies in a contemporary context. Part III sheds light on three different contemporary communalist practices in the Middle East, Europe, North America, and Latin America.
Bridging the gap between historical and theoretical accounts of "the Commune," this book will be enlightening for students of democracy and a valuable resource to scholars and activists interested in the problems and possibilities facing democracy today.
Gaard Kets is Assistant Professor of political theory in the Department of Political Science at Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands. His research interests include the theories and practices of past and present forms of radical democracy, workplace democracy, council communism, social movements, and revolution.
Mathijs van de Sande is Assistant Professor in philosophical ethics and political philosophy at Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands. He conducts research into democratic legitimacy and the role of protest and social movements. For this purpose, he draws on various philosophical movements and traditions, such as anarchism, feminism, and Marxism and post-Marxism.
