Agorismethumb|Le triple A, symbole de l'agorisme. thumb|Drapeau de l'agorisme dans lequel le motif représente l'anarchie et les couleurs représentent le marché gris et le marché noir. L’agorisme se réfère à la philosophie politique établie par Samuel Edward Konkin III, auteur du , en 1980. Cette philosophie s'apparente à l'anarcho-capitalisme, ou anarchie de marché libre, et vient du grec agora qui signifie marché ouvert.
Egoist anarchismEgoist anarchism or anarcho-egoism, often shortened as simply egoism, is a school of anarchist thought that originated in the philosophy of Max Stirner, a 19th-century philosopher whose "name appears with familiar regularity in historically orientated surveys of anarchist thought as one of the earliest and best known exponents of individualist anarchism". Max Stirner's philosophy is usually called "egoism".
Issues in anarchismAnarchism is generally defined as the political philosophy which holds the state to be undesirable, unnecessary and harmful as well as opposing authority and hierarchical organization in the conduct of human relations. Proponents of anarchism, known as anarchists, advocate stateless societies based on non-hierarchical voluntary associations. While anarchism holds the state to be undesirable, unnecessary and harmful, opposition to the state is not its central or sole definition.
Homestead principleThe homestead principle is the principle by which one gains ownership of an unowned natural resource by performing an act of original appropriation. Appropriation could be enacted by putting an unowned resource to active use (as with using it to produce some product), joining it with previously acquired property or by marking it as owned (as with livestock branding). Proponents of intellectual property hold that ideas can also be homesteaded by originally creating a virtual or tangible representation of them.
Natural-rights libertarianismNatural-rights libertarianism (also known as deontological liberalism, deontological libertarianism, libertarian moralism, natural rights-based libertarianism, philosophical libertarianism or rights-theorist libertarianism) is the theory that all individuals possess certain natural or moral rights, mainly a right of individual sovereignty and that therefore acts of initiation of force and fraud are rights-violations and that is sufficient reason to oppose those acts.
Consequentialist libertarianismConsequentialist libertarianism, also known as consequentialist liberalism or libertarian consequentialism, is a libertarian political philosophy and position that is supportive of a free market and strong private property rights only on the grounds that they bring about favorable consequences such as prosperity or efficiency. What consequentialist libertarians advocate is derived through cost–benefit calculation, taking a broad account of consequences.
Lew RockwellLew Rockwell (nom complet : Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.), né le 1er juillet 1944 à Boston, est un économiste et commentateur politique américain de philosophie libertarienne. Lew Rockwell est le fondateur et président du Ludwig von Mises Institute et vice-président du Center for Libertarian Studies en Californie. Il publie le Journal of Libertarian Studies pour le Mises Institute ainsi que le site politique Lewrockwell.com, site libertarien qui se définit comme « anti-État, anti-guerre et pro-marché » (« Anti-state, anti-war, pro-market »).
PropertarianismPropertarianism, or proprietarianism, is a political philosophy that reduces all questions of ethics to the right to own property. On property rights, it advocates private property based on Lockean sticky property norms, where an owner keeps their property more or less until they consent to gift or sell it, rejecting the Lockean proviso. Closely related to and overlapping with right-libertarianism, it is also often accompanied with the idea that state monopoly law should be replaced by market-generated law centered on contractual relationships.
Counter-economicsCounter-economics is an economic theory and revolutionary method consisting of direct action carried out through the black market or the gray market. As a term, it was originally used by American libertarian activists and theorists Samuel Edward Konkin III and J. Neil Schulman. The former defined it as the study or practice "of all peaceful human action which is forbidden by the State". The term is short for counter-establishment economics and may also be referred to as counter-politics.
Private defense agencyA private defense agency (PDA) is a theoretical enterprise which would provide personal protection and military defense services to individuals who would pay for its services. PDAs are advocated in anarcho-capitalism as a way of enforcing the system of private property. A PDA is distinguished from a private contractor employed by a state which is usually subsidized. Instead, such agencies would in theory be voluntarily financed primarily by competing insurance and security companies.
