History

Proto-Anarcho-Communism

Anarcho-communism was the dominant economy for most of human history, existing in numerous forager economies and ancient civilizations. But as the market economy spread to more parts of the world and people became forced into monetary and statist relationships, the idea of anarcho-communism repeatedly emerged as a distinct philosophy and movement across societies. This emerged as both distinct philosophies advocating for anarcho-communistish societies and practical mutual aid networks. Notable examples of these groups include Taoists, the Cynics, the Stoics, Mazdakism, the Taborites, the Diggers and the Enrages.
