	AUTONOMOUS COMMUNITIES
		Unlike communal movements, in their theories and practices there is no place for thinking about the good life in the here and now, because in so doing the revolutionary consciousness of the members would be undermined.
		Unlike predecessors like the nineteenth-century communities and the communes of the 1960s and 70s which always had problematic relationships with society as a whole, co-housing is not an alternative lifestyle, but one deemed appropriate for a wide majority of people.
		Although the ideals of the institutionalised communities differ from those of commune-members who want to change society radically, what all people living in intentional communities have in common is their wish to live together in a more or less alternative way, in a reaction against the dominant values of neo-liberal society.
