Anarcho-Capitalism
Proposes replacing the state with privately supplied law, protection, and other services organized through property rights and contract. Its account of voluntary exchange extends to functions usually treated as public authority.
Reference boundary: A commitment to markets or limited government alone does not establish rejection of all public authority. The anarchist label is contested.
Foundational doctrines
- Private property
- Contractual governance
- Competitive protection
- Abolition of the state
Disagreement and variation
Critics ask whether private protection would reproduce domination by wealth and how people without resources could secure equal protection. Many socialist anarchists reject its inclusion within anarchism because it retains capitalist property and workplace hierarchies.
