In "The Theory of Four Movements" (1808), Charles Fourier describes how he wants to promote voluntary, co-operative communities of associated producers, who live in an organisation called the "Phallanx". This is a superior form of society than Civilisation itself, since civilisation creates poverty by industry and destruction by passion, while Fourier claims that in the Phallanx, all industry and all passions will be for productive ends, turning the play of children into a source of revenue. His ultimate aim was transforming chaos into "Harmony".
In "A New View of Society" (1813), Owen describes how his experiments in New Lanark have caused him to consider that rationally organising society in the way of a communal factory system, with kindergartens, can cause collective benefits to all members involved. He later associated with Josiah Warren, and both of them invested efforts in creating a utopian commune in New Harmony, establishing things such as labour vouchers. Owen was entirely consistent in his vision from 1813 to 1848, especially highlighting the need to prevent crime rather than punish it, leading to the creation of the Metropolitan Police, by influence over Robert Peele. Owen in 1848 promoted the idea that the state should incrimentally invest in these communes, creating a mass confederation across the world over time. Josiah Warren later wrote "True Civilization" (1863) promoting the same model, including labour vouchers, which are also praised by Proudhon in 1847, and Marx promotes labour "certificates" in 'The Gotha Programme' (1875).
Saint-Simon can said to begin his literary considerations with "De la réorganisation de la société européenne" (1814) in which he attempts to define a perfect constitution of government. He concludes that it is the British tripartite structure of constitutional monarchy which is best. He sees that a supernational European Parliament should then rule, so as to defy wars. So, he begins by a plea for an EU. After this we have Simon's "Déclaration de principes, L’Industrie, vol. II (1817) in which he says that industrial society gives shape to a proper order of things, and further writes that since a government is supposedly for the sake of the governed, and they know what is best for them, then the workers ought to rule themselves (although, by a necessary division of labour, between direct producers, managers and scientists). He repeats this sentiment in his 8th "Letter to an American" (1817). I
