Communitarianism can be defined as the polar opposite of libertarianism. It places an emphasis on societal values and needs in order to shape economic policy. It holds that state regulated industries, unrestricted welfare, and cuts in taxes can both be counterproductive. The solution proposed is to support economic mobility and full employment in order to fulfill what local communities need in order to function. The policies of communitarianism may not have a deep critique of modern capitalism, but it can exist outside of the duality of liberal and conservative.
