Anarchism without adjectives

Anarchism without adjectives is an approach that supports cooperation among anarchist schools without prescribing one economic or social model. It treats disagreement over such models as compatible with shared opposition to coercive authority.

Fernando Tarrida del Mármol: A Spanish-Cuban anarchist who promoted cooperation among anarchists despite their differing economic views. He popularized the phrase while arguing that anarchists need not settle economic disagreements first.
Anarchist communism: An anarchist tradition advocating common ownership and distribution according to need. It is one specific economic program that anarchism without adjectives does not require.
Anarchism: A political philosophy and movement opposing imposed hierarchy and advocating social relations based on voluntary cooperation. Anarchism without adjectives is a pluralist approach within this broader tradition.
Anarchist organization: The forms of voluntary coordination anarchists use to pursue shared aims and sustain collective action. A broad doctrinal tent still needs decisions about how groups coordinate and make commitments.
Anselmo Lorenzo: A Spanish anarchist, trade unionist, and writer associated with the early anarchist movement. His debates with Tarrida helped shape the case for unity across anarchist economic positions.
Collectivist anarchism: An anarchist economic doctrine favoring collective ownership and distribution according to work contributed. Its defined distribution principle contrasts with the approach's refusal to mandate one model.
Free association: The principle that people may form and leave voluntary groups without imposed membership. It offers a shared social principle across anarchist schools with different economic designs.
Anarchist movement: The historical network of anarchist ideas, organizations, and campaigns opposing state and hierarchical power. Pluralism has shaped how this movement handles internal doctrinal differences.
Mikhail Bakunin: A Russian revolutionary and anarchist theorist who advocated collectivism and opposed the state. His collectivist position was among the doctrines that pluralist anarchists sought to accommodate.
Mutualism: A social and economic theory advocating voluntary association, reciprocal exchange, and mutual credit. Its distinctive exchange institutions remain possible without becoming universal anarchist requirements.
