I find anarchists (more specifically ancoms) advocate for a very vague gift economy. To my knowledge, there aren’t any good works on how exactly this type of economy would be run.
Meanwhile, I find there are many works for a communist economy, such as Paul Cockshott’s Towards a New Socialism, or @dessalines@lemmy.ml’s summary of it.

Marxist attempts at predicting or describing the future have been very accurate thus far. This is just a very vague answer again.
very bold of you to post such a comment on an anarchist sub lol
Lol, what’s so bold about it?

I think these debates are sort of useful, but I agree. Anarchists and Marxists must put aside their differences and build a better world together; our short-term goals are pretty much 1:1.
If we’re talking about anti-authoritarian marxists, sure. If we’re talking about marxist-leninists or other traditional marxists then no our goals are fundamentally incompatible because they are against self-determination of the people.
Abolishing private property to replace it with State property, and replacing the bourgeoisie with a State bureaucracy full of privileges… that’s not a revolution. But fortunately we’ve had over a century of leninist counterrevolution to think this through and make sure we NEVER repeat the same mistakes that turned the soviet revolution from early 1917 into a State-capitalist hell-hole after october, when Lenin and Trotski started executing the real revolutionaries (i.e. not power-hungry psychopaths like themselves).
Reading Emma Goldman is always a good approach to those topics.
What’s wrong with abolishing private property? That doesn’t mean going after individual possessions such as your bed or your clothes, but rather abolishing the State-mandated religious belief that some resources that would benefit people may not be used because they are “owned” by that remote person who makes not use of it.
I never said there was anything wrong with abolishing private property.
What’s accurate about predicting the system will collapse under its own contradictions for over 150y? Not that i entirely disagree with some marxist analyses, but claiming they can predict the future…
