Anarchy is a theory that regards the absence of all direct or coercive government as a political ideal. Anarchy proposes the cooperative and voluntary association of individuals and groups as the principal mode of organized society. Instead of having a system ever looming over the people, the people would decide how to deal with situations. A truly circumstance based model that could deal with the fine details, rather than apply vague overstatements blanketed in political concerns. In a state of anarchy the only premise that is followed is an overarching social contract. It is not law, but merely an idea to which all minds are built upon. Each may follow their own path until harm of the mind or body occurs to an unwilling recipient. From there we build upon each other when the time arises within our local region. This region can be as small as family and as large as the globe varying based on the event at hand. With ever advancing technologies such organization can occur with ease. If a new road needs to be built the region affected assembles as it does now to determine the necessary actions. The difference is this assembly is only for the road, only people that care and are affected. The assembly must ensure no one will be harmed by the decisions. New decisions are easily made to accommodate that person and the road is built. Once built the assembly disembarks. The main crimes in an anarchic world are those that cause harm upon others; murder, rape, torture physical damage and forms of psychological damage such as that which could provoke suicide. Again the affected region deals with the crime where there is no judge only a mass jury varying again on region and issue. Since these crimes break the socially accepted contract, the criminals are no longer protected in the society. Two mentionable options to deal with criminals is isolation like prison and termination or death. Punishments can and should vary, some criminal actions affect others for the rest of their life and so should the punishment. There are too many variables to cover here that affect decisions but an assembly can better weigh and understand each one. Some may not automatically see the benefit of such a society that is fluid and without leadership. If you compare Anarchy to systems today it gives the results the others seek. Governments make laws that hinder some, benefit others and are hard to overcome when it’s really necessary. Only those with enough money can afford a lawyer to overcome laws that don’t benefit them. Whereas anarchy is situation based, rulings change for similar cases due to circumstances that make the difference. No one is held to laws which most hinder us, for actions of such laws rarely if ever harm others. As well as the fact laws do no good until someone breaks one and is caught anarchy does not vary. There is no way to prevent bad people from doing bad things, but we can allow good people to act as they wish without harming others. Each may follow their own path until harm of the mind or body occurs to an unwilling recipient.
