Proutism

Proutism, also called Progressive Utilization Theory, or simply PROUT, is a libertarian left, progressive ideology theorized in 1959. It is based off of the ideas of Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar. It opposes both Communism and  Capitalism. It advocates for, among other things, a world government, locally governed and self-sufficient autonomous zones, a bill of rights for humans, plants, and animals, economic democracy, and an economy in which all goods are common property, and distributed in order to maximize the well-being of all living things. It is also based on Sarkar's philosophy of neohumanism.
