Council Democracy

A model where sovereign political power rests with a network of directly elected, recallable, and grassroots councils (like workers' councils in factories or community councils in neighborhoods), which federate upward to larger coordinating bodies. It rejects both liberal parliamentarism and vanguard party dictatorship, aiming for a bottom-up, delegate-based system. It’s the political structure championed by libertarian socialists and council communists, who saw it in the brief flowering of the Paris Commune or the early Soviet councils before Bolshevik centralization.
*Example: The short-lived Bavarian Soviet Republic (1919) attempted to implement Council Democracy. Factories and city districts elected councils that sent recallable delegates to a central congress, aiming to administer society without a separate, professional bureaucracy or party hierarchy. It was crushed by Freikorps and central government forces.*
