On the left, a long standing problem is: how do you go about [[Political organisation]]. With very broadly speaking a historical split between [[horizontalism]] (being a more distributed [[anarchist]] approach) and [[verticalism]] (being a more [[communist]] approach with a strong party form).
I first came across the sniping between camps in [[Inventing the Future]] I think. They lay into "folk politics", their name for horizontalism. Kevin Carson gives a lengthy rebuttal of their critique.
See [[critiques of horizontalism]] and [[critiques of verticalism]], but I am most interested in the [[synthesis of horizontalism and verticalism]].
