Then look no further than Solon Papageorgiou's micro-utopia framework!
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.
