Anarchist philosophy

past, problems and prospects

Nathan Jun

pp. 45-66

Abstract

This chapter is concerned with three specific questions. First, has there ever been a distinctive and independent "anarchist" political philosophy, or is anarchism better viewed as a minor sect of another political philosophy — for example, socialism or liberalism — which cannot claim any critical and conceptual resources of its own? Second, if there has been such a distinctive and independent philosophy, what are its defining characteristics? Third, whether there is a distinctive and independent anarchist political philosophy or not, should there be?
