Four Types of Property
Municipal Co-ops — major means of production under democratic assembly control
Personal — homes & belongings for personal use
Commons — shared resources for all
Usufruct — shared use without individual ownership (tool libraries, etc.)
Permaculture Zones
Z0 — Core: assembly, daily decision-making
Z1 — Intensive: kitchens, clinic, childcare, homes
Z2 — Semi-intensive: workshops, credit, gardens
Z3 — Productive: farms, energy, orchards
Z4 — Semi-wild: woodland, livestock, land trust
Z5 — Wild reserve: minimal intervention
All Places
Illustrative example synthesised from the book’s chapters on layout, economics (four property types, co-ops, food sovereignty, energy), self-governance (assembly, study circles), and prefigurative institutions. Not a blueprint for any single site — every commune adapts to place, culture, and need.
