</image> <label>Type</label> <label>Effects</label> <label>Source</label> <label>Cost to buy</label> <label>Cost to sell</label> </infobox>Anarchism is a political philosophy that advocates complete freedom from the state and social hierarchy. Anarchists desire a society organized around voluntary and non-hierarchical lines, drawing ideas of legality and economics from anti-authoritarian interpretations of communism, collectivism, syndicalism, mutualism, and participatory economics.

History

Main Article: History of Anarchism

Key Concepts

Anarchy

Anarchy refers to a society, entity, group of people, or a single person that rejects hierarchy.

Direct Action

Direct Action refers to actions and forms of organising that are unmediated by authority.

Mutual Aid

Mutual Aid refers to the voluntary cooperation and giving of resources to others without an expectation of a reward.

Tendencies

*An additional subdivision within individualist anarchism may be the difference between its early American and European branches. Most American individualist anarchists advocated for mutualism, while European individualist anarchists were pluralists who advocated for anarchism without adjectives and synthesis anarchism, ranging from anarcho-communist to mutualist economic types.

Internal Debates and Issues

Anarchism is NOT a unified movement, and perspectives within anarchism can be so conflicting that is often leads to heated arguments and occasionally violence.
