Five Pillars Of Anarrchism

A utopia is a place of ideal perfection. However, according to the Merriam-Webster, it is also an impractical scheme for social improvement. Though dating back to the earliest days of U.S. history, utopian communities became a part of American thought by the 1840s. Various groups that were struggling because of urbanization and industrialization, challenged the traditional norms of American society with a desire to create a world without capitalism, immigration, and the tension between communities. However, these attempts failed due to individualism, materialism, the lack of growth, and little balance.

Parsons believed that anarchy was liberty which is the absence of force, or compulsion or violence. In an article written in 1887 Parsons explained what anarchism meant to him. He went on to say in this

Utopia, according to Google, is defined as an imagined place or state of things in which everything is perfect. The biggest concept to understand as a person analyzing literature is that a utopia cannot ever exist, there is always going to be flaws and they will often be destructive. In Brave New World, Aldous Huxley uses the utopian society archetype to show that the citizens give up their identity and give into conformity. Through this, Huxley reveals that in any society we assimilate to the social norm of society to be happy, thus compromising our identity for happiness.

Government is an essential part of civilization in modern and historic times. This crucial element of society has been observed in different forms. There are three main systems of governments: autocracy, oligarchy, and democracy. Which system a government belongs to is determined by who hold the sovereignty, meaning who has the supreme power and authority (“Sovereignty”). This leads to there being major differences between autocracies, oligarchies, and democracies.

Every person has their own personal vision of utopia. My utopia may be filled with libraries and cats, while yours would probably look very different. In Frankenstein, Shelley gives us Victor Frankenstein, a man who envisions a world where he will never feel the pain of losing someone he loves again. He devises a way to cheat

We talked about anarchy means no central authority and there is no world police force. In class we talked about anarchy and how it related to International Relations. In the real world every country feel insecure and the only way for surviving is relying on themselves; self-help. We said in class, it is difficult to trust anyone because everyone is looking for self-interest in the anarchy system. As a result, that led to security dilemma that is actions taken by countries in order to secure themselves from other countries. Increasing its military strength or making alliances, for instance. The book talked about anarchy in general and how countries such as USA, Germany, and China would interact with one another under anarchy system. On the other hand, the book talked about how diplomatic communications can lessen or inflame tensions between countries or actors as well as clarify or obscure a county’s intentions. So not only military can help you to protect yourself but also

A person’s perception of Utopia varies depending on their life experiences and what they hope to expect of the society in which they live. It's an ideal place where equality, serenity, protection, and freedom are essential qualities.

According to Merriam-Webster, Utopia is an imaginary place where laws and social positions are perfect. William Golding’s novel, Lord of the Flies, was published in 1954 and shows that anyone who decides to be a leader must be fair or their society will fail. Through the novel, it is shown that a true Utopian society can not exist because names are forgotten, corruption occurs after creation, and you can get lost in thoughts and dreams.

In Anthem and Julius Caesar, it is shown that authoritarianism ruins the control a government system or leader needs to successfully run a society. “And if the Councils had decreed that you should be a Street Sweeper, how dared you think that you could be of greater use to men than in sweeping the streets?” (Anthem by Ayn Rand pages 71-72) The apparent government system in Anthem would be the Council. They enforce many things that restrict each persons’ own freedom to do things or even think things for themselves. This quote shows that the government chooses the job each person will be responsible for. Equality is a Street Sweeper and when he decides to think for himself and discover the lightbulb, the Council immediately shuts down his ideas with massive

Totalitarianism is a type of political system in which the government controls everything. There are no limits to the government’s authority as it strives to keep everything and everyone equal. Totalitarianism plays a big role in the novel Anthem, where everyone is restricted and ruled by the government with no opinion or way out. People who are determined do their best to outsmart the government but most fail because they eventually just give in. However, this is tested when the main character in Anthem, Equality, starts realizing what the government is doing to them is wrong. He starts building on a mind of his own, educating himself in order to surpass the limitations imposed by his government. He works in secret to discover new ways to improve the way they live. He is able to work in secret for a significant amount of time, but his actions are eventually discovered. Once this happens his ideas are judged and threatened with destruction because they pose a threat to the uniform order of the society. Ayn Rand analyzes the concepts of uniformity, individuality, and rebellion throughout her dystopian novel Anthem to argue that totalitarianism is harmful the population.

They state that Social Anarchy is primarily used by people in higher offices, but the need for big authorities gives them the chance to put their ideas into practice. Most times the use of violence goes hand-in-hand with those ideas.

Anarchy- it is when government is absent from freedom and their rights but not with a political ideal

Anarres is a society of anarchists. The society was formed after a revolution and war against the centralized government and plutocracies of Urras. On Anarres every one was created equal because

Philosophers have struggled with determining the proper role of government. In the absence of government and laws, people could do whatever they wanted, and some of them would try to slaughter others and steal their property. This is the state called anarchy. People have realized that the safety of the people and the country would be in jeopardy in such a state. Thus, it is necessary for a country to have a government and/or ruler. However, a ruler must not have absolute power nor lack authority. But the protection of the people and the country alone is not enough for a country to prosper. The property and the natural rights of the people and the government must also be protected. Thus, the proper role of government is to protect the

As anarchy is one of the most debated cases in the International Relations study, many philosopher and scientist argue about the word ‘Anarchy’. In Wendt’s journal “Anarchy is what states make of it”, Alexander Wendt conveys that anarchy does not by chance lead to a self-help system (Wendt A. , 1992). The term anarchy comes from the Greek, 'anarchia', which means 'absence of authority'. Generally, we can define Anarchy as the condition where there is no sovereignty, the rules that disappeared because of the absence of authority. The Cambridge English Dictionary defines the word anarchy as ‘a situation in which there is no organization and control, especially in society, because there is no effective government’. George C. Lewis states that “Anarchy is one of the vaguest and ambiguous words in language” .
