^ The sledgehammer, sickles, gear, and guillotine commonly used to represent LeBlancism. ^
LeBlancism is a form of political thought following the teachings, ideas and political theories of [[Russell LeBlanc]], an [[Esmaria|Esmarian]] political theorist and activist. Calling for a broad series of reforms to economics, labor rights and banking, as well as expanded regulations on corporations, it is generally categorized as a downstream from [[Labourism|Labourist]] and [[Avant-Garde]] political theories, as well as possessing a number of populist and nationalistic elements.
Within the [[Coalition]], LeBlancism calls for the restoration of national militaries through the abolition of the [[Global Disarmament Initiative]], allowing the member states of the Coalition to regain their power against unchecked influence of megacorporations and the [[Coalition Forces Authority]]. This, generally, entails a theoretical reform of the CFA as a whole, decentralizing it in favor of a unified command comprised of restored national militaries. Many political parties subscribing to LeBlancist thought are also skeptical of the supranational Coalition itself, believing the CCN to be a vehicle for megacorporate interests that supersede that of the people.
Beyond the [[Federal Renewal Party]] in Esmaria, LeBlancism has influenced a number of political organizations, both on [[Plateia]] and offworld. Some elements of the [[Settlement Independence Forces]] on Vasati subscribe to LeBlanc's ideas, and certain proletarian manifestations of [[Spacer nationalism]] are regarded as indirect manifestations of some of the grievances underlying LeBlancism.
