The societies which are self-governed comprise of certain voluntary Institutions. Anarchism is a belief which advocates and intercedes these self-governed societies. It is the belief which proposes absence and abolition of hierarchy and authority in most forms. Some say it is a political philosophy while others have termed it as institutions which are based on non- hierarchical or free associations. It is often morally and pragmatically criticized and is considered utopian by its critics. Free love, libertarian education, and free thought are some ideologies that come under this belief. The anarchist schools of thought support individualism as well as collectivism.
