“...withering away of the state”
Communism?
Yes. Marx taught that the state is to wither away, and Lenin agreed and elaborated on this.
The theory is that initially, when people are still not properly configured to communist worldview, there will be people who cling to private property or don’t work without compensation. For that reason, the state is necessary in the stages leading to communism, but communism itself is a society where there is no need for the state. Light moral correction is provided fraternally in the society of likeminded people, and serious immorality is not possible because the society already offers everything a reasonable person might want.
Don’t laugh.
