He was a socialist, but anti-authoritarian, and a strong critic of all forms of Hegelianism including Marxism. He tried (with limited success) to formulate alternate concepts of socialism that weren't authoritarian and had a respect for civil liberties, as he saw that Marxism's various tries at revolution and the Dictatorship of the Proletariat were not only failing to bring socialism, but perverting it into something even worse than capitalism. I'm not a fan of Capitalism at all, but Marxism is even worse.
