the commune, as a model of government, is generally advocated by some communists, revolutionary socialists, and anarchists. communes are an organizational community with social cohesion derived from a shared culture. as a governing community, a commune often entails some degree of local governance, communal ownership, and cultural cohesion. however, models that do not include all three aspects may still be described as communes. at its core, a commune is just an organization which creates social conditions that prioritize the primacy of the collective over the individual. many different forms of commune-based governments are possible, such as a local and sovereign community which is both a microstate and a nation-state, a federated commune which lacks a degree of sovereignty under the rule of a larger state, or a larger national community which focuses more on aspects of communal ownership rather than communal governance.
