Anarchism

[Michiko]

The belief that all forms of goverment are oppressive and therefore undesirable.
The desire to therefore create a Utopia based on free human [cooperation] in which all members of the Utopia are equal without laws, class, prejudice, [militarism] or hierarchy or the need there of.
Recognizing that a [autonomous] community is the embodiment of this Utopia based on emperical examples which have manifested through out the course of history.

[Dave Paprocki]

Belief in the abolition of all government and the organization of society on a voluntary, cooperative basis without recourse to force or compulsion.

[Raeanne Dimick]

the political belief that there should be little or no formal or official organization to society but that people should work freely together

[Zipporah Schumaker]

[Anarchism] is the belief that authority is unnecessary and harmful. Anarchists oppose the unearned privilege of the upper class, the virtual [domestication] of humanity, and the absurd notion that Bush is better qualified than you are to run your own life. Anarchism is generally considered a form of socialism that rejects the state as well as capitalism, but some anarchists, particularly primitivists and post-left anarchists, are hard to classify as socialist, per se.
Anarchism has been given a bad name by its associations with wanton violence, punk music, and so on. However, none of these are inherently tied to [anarchism] (some anarchists have even been pacifists). Nonetheless, the image of the anarchist as a wantonly anti-social rebel has been exploited by many clothing lines and punk bands attempting to cash in on the image.
Anarchism is often confused with ochlocracy, nihilism, objectivism and other forms of [laissez faire capitalism], and Nietzscheanism. However, it should be noted that anarchism is, with few exceptions, socialist and consistantly anti-capitalist. While some anarchists do come off as rather nihilistic, the idea itself is not necessarily part of anarchism. Obviously, as well, Nietzscheanism and anarchism have little in common since Nietzsche was a stauch supporter of hierarchy and a defender of slavery.
Common symbols of anarchism include the circle A and the black flag. Well-known anarchists include [Emma Goldman], Alexander Berkman, and Peter [Kropotkin].

[Tanya Shivari]

A political theory which aims to create a society within which individuals freely co-operate together as equals. As such [anarchism] opposes all forms of hierarchical control - be that control by the state or a [capitalist] - as harmful to the individual and their [individuality] as well as unnecessary.

[Little_Girl]

The name given to a principle or theory of life and conduct under which society is conceived without government-harmony in such a society being obtained, not by [submission] to law, or by obedience to any athority, but free agreements concluded between the various groups, [territorial] and professional, freely constituted for the sake of production and consumption, as also for the satisfaction of the infinite variety of needs and asporations of a [civilized] being.

[PussyCat]

a belief in everyone [living together] peacefully not being controlled by some jackass [money hungry] president who can pay off congress to do wut he wants them to, anarchism is not about [blowin] shit up those people are immature asshole who make anarchists look bad

[Kai]

The idea of a group of people existing without need for law. A sociopolitical [doctrine] [stating] that government is a self serving machine. People that dont necesarily [coexist] but they live for their better tomorrow.
