"What is Anarchism?"

Anarchism is a political philosophy that advocates for the abolition of all hierarchical authority and government, emphasizing voluntary cooperation and self-managed communities. It seeks to create a society based on equality, mutual aid, and collective decision-making, without coercive structures like police or rulers. Anarchists believe that people can organize themselves freely and responsibly, fostering social harmony without centralized control. While diverse in thought, all anarchists share the goal of reducing or eliminating oppressive institutions to promote individual freedom and social justice.
