Bairdism is a communist ideology developed by Carnish Marxist political theorist, philosopher and revolutionary William Baird that proposes the establishment of a communist society through the creation of democratic people's councils organised under a decentralised, non-partisan union. Built around the theories of council communism and libertarian Marxism, Bairdism is staunchly anti-authoritarian and democratic and is firmly opposed to Devinism and the concept of the revolutionary vanguard party. Bairdism instead proposes that a network of worker councils would be the main vehicle for revolution against the capitilist state.
