The original communes are not "stateless" or "businessless", they're just outside that, more like a monestery. But they can easily interact with states and businesses - those'd just be outside the commune.

Lots of communes work quite well in small scale.

Many family or tribal groups are basically communes (not all though), some companies or workplaces work kindof like that too. They're using (cheap) trust and fair shares within the bounds of the commune, instead of (expensive) lawyers, ownership and micro-contracting. Though of course you can have personal property within a commune.

But scale up beyond easy observability, and beyond the effectiveness of tit-fot-tat justice (and the power of things like shame) and you get similar problems to all larger scale human societies. The situation diminishes from a repeated "prisoners dilemma" with observability, to a one-shot "game".
