What do you call it if I don't like capitalism, but also don't think it's even possible for any governing body to remain both competent and non-corrupt for long enough to make a centrally managed system work?

You don't need central management. You just need to have workers keep the proceeds of their labor instead of uninvolved shareholders and "owners".

Central management is still needed to make global plans, like in production or healthcare etc.

Why not local communities that feed up into larger representation groups?

hiw would you call the largest representation group? Isn't it central management?

I wasn't imagining something that just makes decisions that are handed down. They collate and evaluate the decisions and input from below.
