List of Anarchist Societies: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 18:47, 3 April 2024

A list of societies which follow anarchists models of governance or economics, past and present. (Note: Forager societies, intentional communities, protest camps, co-operatives, and squats are not included). We have categorised these societies into four kinds:

Anarchist Societies are societies built with a anarchist ideology in mind, in that they have successfully abolished coercive hierarchies in their communities.
Anti-Authoritarian Societies are societies that have successfully abolished coercive hierarchies in their communities but do not explicitly espouse anarchist politics.
Participatory Societies are societies that have abolished coercive hierarchies for some of the population.
Autonomous Societies are self-governing societies that have libertarian features but fall short of fully participatory decision-making.
