anarchism
For the most part I found this article to be intersting because it contradicted my previous deas of what anarchism was. I thought that it was a sort of chaos in the absence of government. I have come to learn that although anarchists do not beleive in government it is not for the purpose of chaos but for the social harmony of the community and also for a community that lives without force and violence. In theory I think that it is a good goal however I am unsure as to how fesible it would be for there to be a world where everyone could coexist harmoniously while still living on their own individual terms. Anarchism it seems like liberalialism values the freedoms of the individual. However it seems to value the individual before the community and hold the beleif that with satisfied individuals who are not forced by any means to do anything will cause individuals to live as a harmonious community. I am just unsure as to how possible it would be for individuals and a community to always be fully satisfied without some force because of the nature of communities some form of comprimise is necessarry and as a result there are going to be people who want what they want and will do anything at the cost of others to get it which is a force that I feel anarchists are not fans of so for these reasons I don;t think that an anarchist society could every exist just because of the nature of the ideology itself.
