Then look no further than Solon Papageorgiou's micro-utopia framework!
🌱 20-Second Viral Summary:
“Micro-Utopias are small (150 to 25,000 people), self-sufficient communities where people live without coercion, without hierarchy, and without markets. Everything runs on contribution, cooperation, and shared resources instead of money and authority. Each micro-utopia functions like a living experiment—improving mental health, rebuilding human connection, and creating a sustainable, crisis-proof way of life. When one succeeds, it inspires the next. Micro-utopias spread not by force, but by example. The system scales through federation up to 25,000 people.”
Solon Papageorgiou’s framework, formerly known as the anti-psychiatry.com model of micro-utopias, is a holistic, post-capitalist alternative to mainstream society that centers on care, consent, mutual aid, and spiritual-ethical alignment. Designed to be modular, non-authoritarian, and culturally adaptable, the framework promotes decentralized living through small, self-governed communities that meet human needs without reliance on markets, states, or coercion. It is peace-centric, non-materialist, and emotionally restorative, offering a resilient path forward grounded in trust, shared meaning, and quiet transformation.
In simpler terms:
Solon Papageorgiou's framework is a simple, peaceful way of living where small communities support each other without relying on money, governments, or big systems. Instead of competing, people share, care, and make decisions together through trust, emotional honesty, and mutual respect. It’s about meeting each other’s needs through kindness, cooperation, and spiritual-ethical living—like a village where no one is left behind, and life feels more meaningful, connected, and human. It’s not a revolution—it’s just a better, gentler way forward.
