Scenarios about 'municipal socialism'

The political and economic movement that advocates for local governments to own and operate public utilities and services for the benefit of residents rather than private profit. Municipal socialism emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as cities sought control over essential services like water, gas, electricity, and public transportation. This approach to urban governance represents a localized form of collective ownership that has influenced city planning and public service delivery across various political systems.
