Labourism is a movement and political system centered around the unionization of workers, characterized by a proletarian ownership of the means of production. Its most mainstream currents are centered around the theories of Vesto-Guibard philosopher Charles Willem (698-774 S.C.), whose critiques of bourgeoisie capitalism would become central to Labourist movements onward. While many of his theories regarding resource allocation and distribution were rendered obsolete by space colonization and contemporary interplanetary economics, many movements derivative of his ideas still exist today. Ideologies such as Avantgardism, LeBlancism and Prostasism are regarded as descendants of, or at the very least influenced by, Willemite Labourism.
In the present, Labourism has seen a resurgence, brought on by a number of aggravating factors, such as overreaches of megacorporate authority and the diminished power of unions.
