Mormon communalism was a natural outgrowth of Joseph Smith’s strong reaction against what he saw as excessive pluralism and individualism in a society where old ideas of community were being rent by what Robert N. Bellah called a “flood of geographical, demographic, and economic expansion.” Communalism was a prominent part of Smith’s doctrines in the early 1830s. And it became integral to the Mormon character through historical experience, long affecting the Mormon people whether or not they were living under a communal order. [Author]
