After looking into the Free Territories (Or Makhnovia) in Ukraine during the Russian Revolution, I found that many regions were, in fact, money-less societies. If the main idea was to end tyranny from governments AND exploitation of the workers, how was this maintained? What was to stop a person from forming a workplace which did not adhere to workers' self management and traded in currency?

I understand that the Free Territories were plagued by conflict, so there may not have been any systems in place for this purpose, much like how a judicial system was never established. But if that isn't the case, how was their economic system maintained?
