Socialists come in many varieties: anarchists, Marxists, Marxist-Leninists, left communists, council communists, social democrats, democratic socialists, mutualists, syndicalists… to name just a few. Each socialist political philosophy has different ideas on how to achieve the goal of creating a socialist society or communist society (communism being a type of socialism). In other words, each one has different ideas about strategy.
These strategies can be divided along two spectrums:
►revolutionary vs. non-revolutionary
►authoritarian vs. libertarian (aka state vs. anti-state)
The divisions along these two spectrums create four broad categories of socialists:
►Revolutionary state socialists
►Revolutionary libertarian socialists
►Non-revolutionary state socialists
►Non-revolutionary libertarian socialists
Arguably there’s also a fifth category since some types of revolutionary socialists cluster in the middle of the authoritarian vs. libertarian spectrum.
The result is the Socialist Political Compass. This video discusses the five main categories of socialist political philosophies and gives an overview of their differing strategies for creating a socialist society.
