Leaderless Organizing

Leaderless Organizing is a collective action framework within the study of social movements that, unlike hierarchical or centralized organizing models, operates through decentralized, autonomous groups or individuals who coordinate without formal leadership structures, relying instead on shared norms, consensus-based decision-making, and distributed initiatives to achieve common goals.
