    When different municipal groups need to coordinate together with another group for something, let’s say foreign trade, how is this accomplished under anarchism?

    I am an anarchist in an ideal world but we don’t have anything resembling that. Just trying to learn.

      Kropotkin used Europe constructing its international railways as an example in Mutual Aid. Basically one party sends a delegate with a proposal, the second party either accepts it or revises it and sends it back. And back and forth until a consensus is reached. I want to emphasize before someone says “that wouldn’t work.” Thats how it works now, except the organizations rn are hierarchical and profit-driven, while we want them horizontally organized and need-driven.
