     [ "Anarchism" ]

    1:  The belief that all forms of goverment are oppressive and therefore undesirable.

      * e.g.,  ... Examples of Anarchism are all around us. Like when a stop light goes out and the all drivers take turns crossing the street, during a mosh pit at a punk show when all those in the mosh pit help someone up who has fallen instead of trampling them or at a dinner where all those eating divide the duties of the meal up equally. Anarchism is basically voluntary human cooperation. It's mutual trading out of respect for each other as oppose to trading based on the forces you can bring to bare on each other. It's order without oppression and Democracy without goverment. 


     [ "Anarchism" ]

    2:  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.

      * e.g.,  ... Those who are uneducated about the history of Anarchism will tell you that it will never work. In all actuallity it does work to varying degrees. Burning Man, the E.Z.L.N, the Spanish Revolution, the Paris commune and African tribes are just some of the many examples to name a few. 


     [ "Anarchism" ]

     [ "Anarchism" ]

    1: The belief that the state is an unecessary oppressive institution that infringes upon the personal liberties of the individual. Anarchists believe that if the state were to collapse, and all means of social and economic organization were left up to the individual, people would associate freely amongst each other and practice more efficent or more favorable socio-economic organizational tactics without the intervention of an external coercive authority.

      * e.g.,  ... Proponents of anarchism include Proudhon, Goldman, Chomsky, and Bakunin who are among some of the most famous anarchist philosophers. 

     [ "anarchism" ]

    1: 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.

      * e.g.,  ... If you want the truth, I suggest you look into the books on anarchism, such as Kropotkin's Conquest of Bread. 


     [ "anarchism" ]

    2: Anarchism has been given a bad name by its associations with wanton violence, punk music, and so on.

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" ]

    3: 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.


     [ "anarchism" ]

     [ "Anarch" ]

    2: Anarch is a self-given title, the analogue of a Monarch -but as a self-ruled, ("self-mastered") individual free- will... also conferred as a description of one so self-possessed and intent to define themselves Unruled... {-Perhap not even by/for themselves, -in the Zen way: rather as mastering the enslaving aspects of all exerted intention and control; thus by 'mediating' rather than 'governing' one's 'Fate'. The Destiny of Free Will.} {{Personally, i highly recommend such methods as "the Eightfold Way" path of the chakra-yogas, best partially in modern dialect & jargon.}}

      * e.g.,  ... :: A paraphrase of biblical latin in Genesis, for "In the beginning was the Word!", rendered {by the addition of the first 'AN' in 'an@rche',} as "In the before-the-beginning was the Logos!" 


     [ "Anarch" ]

    3: Also,: 1: "Master of Chaos" (ie: ", of-:2"); or 2: "an anarchic state or event, (of indulgence and decadent disorder, or-) of unrestrained revelry &-or riotous rampage"; -these usually used disparagingly.

     [ "anarchism" ]

    1: 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.

      * e.g.,  ... For all the people who decide to bash anarchism go away. Anarchy means no government It does not mean lack of order! 

     [ "Anarchism" ]

    1: The belief that all forms of government are oppressive and should be abloished. It's also a belief that many people are too close-minded, ignorant, and governmentally dependent too actually sit back and think about on a regular basis. It's more than a "circled A" or kicking over political signs (contrary to popular belief.) It's people realizing that we're all equal, and noone is wise enough to rule over his fellow man, no person is better than another! So the next time you say "anarchy is dumb and it'll never work" or "it's so immature", pull your head out of your arse and think about it.

      * e.g.,  ... no, i don't shop at hot topic, nor do i like all those poser bands so many enjoy. hot topic is overpriced crap and it's very contrdictary to buy anarchy merchandise there becasue it has sales tax which goes to the government. MAKE YOUR OWN CLOTHES AND JEWELRY!
