Llunas believed that the growth of science would promote social equality. At the same time, he was involved with the secret committees of the Regional Spanish Federation of the International Workers" Association (International Water Association) and organized the Typesetters Society of Barcelona in 1879. Two years later, together with Rafael Farga i Pellicer, Anselmo Lorenzo and other prominent anarchists, he helped found the Workers Federation of the Spanish Region (FTRE) and remained on the national committee until 1883.
He was the principal promoter and doctrinal theorist of anarchist proto-syndicalism, which formed the basis of Twentieth Century Catalonian Anarcho-syndicalism. He was also a primary advocate of Collectivist Anarchism. Of special significance in this regard was his role as secretary of the Catalan Athenaeum of the Working Classes, a proletarian cultural center which promoted a type of scientific anarchism.
In 1870, he was a supporter of the First International and in 1872 became a member of the Local Federation of Workers" Societies of Barcelona.
