Prefigurative politics are modes of organization and social relationships that strive to reflect the future society being sought by a group.[1] In practice, they involve building a new society "within the shell of the old" by living out the values and social structures the group desires for the future.[2] According to Carl Boggs, who coined the term, prefigurative politics aims to embody "within the ongoing political practice of a movement [...] those forms of social relations, decision-making, culture, and human experience that are the ultimate goal," thus aligning the means and the ends of social change.[3] Prefigurative politics are sometimes justified based on the premise that the ends a social movement can achieve are "fundamentally shaped by the means it employs."[4] Prefigurativism is the attempt to enact prefigurative politics.
