      Interesting but it barely touches on anarchism. Not sure this answers my question—unless the answer is that anarchists later gravitated towards this idea and were not involved at the start?

        I don’t think there is a definite answer on this as I think the anarchists involved in the early phase of solarpunk intentionally avoided the term to not over-politizise it. But if you are aware of the concepts and jargon it is hard to not see it shine through here and there in most of the influential solarpunk texts.

        @LibertyLizard - I think it was a bit the other way round. Solarpunk started as an idea. Just the “I’m tired of dystopian scifi. I want utopias that address pragmatic concerns and show us a way out of this current situation.”

        Then folks started to collate ideas on how to make that work and found that various anarchic philosophies already addressed it.
