  • More about Decolonial Communism, Democracy and the Commons


The article discusses the development of a decolonial communism model in the 1960s and 1970s, based on the experiences of Yugoslavia, Portugal, Chile, and Cuba. It highlights the importance of radical and egalitarian self-managed relations within a real socialist system, and argues that these relations can only mature if they are not isolated in one country.

Against the backdrop of deepening inequalities with the introduction of "market socialism" in the mid-1960s, worker and student protests erupted against a lack of respect for socialist values and for self-management rights. Distinguished contributors review past and present experiences and reconsider discussions in the light of current thinking.

In Yugoslavia, past and present, through the lens of Commons. In Portugal and Chile, and Cuba in the 1970s, as essays in workers' control. Catherine Samary uses a "decolonial framework" to consider relations of domination that can involuntarily mark political and intellectual relations, including those identifying with Marxism. Radical and egalitarian self-managed relations can mature only if they are at the heart of a real socialist system and are not isolated in one country only.
