Marxism and European anarchism are often treated as original political theories, but in reality, they borrow heavily from Indigenous and non-Western social structures. Concepts like communal land, mutual aid, anti hierarchy or dialectical and historical materialism weren’t invented by Marx, Engels, or Bakunin. These systems already existed and endured in Indigenous societies across the world.
