'''Post-Anarchism''', or '''Post-Structuralist Anarchism''' is anarchism understood not as a certain set of social arrangements, or even as a particular revolutionary project, but rather as a sensibility, a certain ethos or way of living and seeing the world which is impelled by the realization of the freedom that one already has. It suggests that revolution – as a way of thinking about radical political changes – is no longer operational, and proposes the notion of insurrection instead – in which one distances oneself from power, rather than seeking to fight against it directly creating a new rule. | '''Post-Anarchism''', or '''Post-Structuralist Anarchism''' is anarchism understood not as a certain set of social arrangements, or even as a particular revolutionary project, but rather as a sensibility, a certain ethos or way of living and seeing the world which is impelled by the realization of the freedom that one already has.

In layman's terms, Post-anarchism is not a single coherent theory, but rather refers to the combined works of any number of post-modernists and post-structuralists such as Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Lacan, Jacques Derrida, Jean Baudrillard; postmodern feminists such as Judith Butler; and alongside those of classical anarchist and libertarian philosophers such as Zhuang Zhou, Emma Goldman, Max Stirner, and Friedrich Nietzsche. Thus, the terminology can vary widely in both approach and outcome. | In layman's terms, Post-anarchism is not a single coherent theory, but rather refers to the combined works of any number of post-modernists and post-structuralists such as Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Lacan, Jacques Derrida, Jean Baudrillard; postmodern feminists such as Judith Butler; and alongside those of classical anarchist and libertarian philosophers such as Zhuang Zhou, Emma Goldman, Max Stirner, and Friedrich Nietzsche.

Bey argued that [[File:Awaj.png]] [[Anarchism|anarchism]] had become insular and sectarian, confusing the various anarchist schools of thought for the real experience of lived anarchy. In 1994, Todd May initiated what he called "poststructuralist anarchism", arguing for a theory grounded in the post-structuralist understanding of power, particularly through the work of Michel Foucault and Emma Goldman, while taking the anarchist approach to ethics. | ||
The "Lacanian anarchism" proposed by Saul Newman utilizes the works of Jacques Lacan and [[File:Anego.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism|Max Stirner]] more prominently. Newman criticizes classical anarchists, such as [[File:Acol.png]] [[Anarcho-Collectivism|Mikhail Bakunin]] and [[File:Socan2.png]] [[Social Anarchism|Peter Kropotkin]], for assuming an objective "human nature" and natural order; he argues that from this approach, humans progress and are well-off by nature, with only the Establishment as a limitation that forces behavior otherwise. For Newman, this is a worldview that depicts the reversal of [[File:Fishe.png]] [[Authoritarian Conservatism|Thomas Hobbes']] Leviathan, in which the "good" state is subjugated by the "evil" people. | The "Lacanian anarchism" proposed by Saul Newman utilizes the works of Jacques Lacan and [[File:Anego.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism|Max Stirner]] more prominently.

Consciousness contains three fragments: ego, superego, and id.

Deleuze and Guattari being part of the anti-psychiatry movement, say that this is coercion. Not only the superego, ego, and id should be free, but the id shouldn't even be whole. They compare it with the factory of desires, and it is inhabited by many personalities, just like the proletariat should be freed from the factory, those personalities should be freed to live separately, creating each their own desire, in short, every person should become a schizophrenic, however, they don't oppose the formation of "healthy" consciousness, they are against of formation of consciousness through coercive means by the society. As well they believe that all forms of society should be free to practice since telling what is normal and not is a form of fascism, for example, they believe capitalism can be practiced in the post-capitalist society, despite being Marxists in a very orthodox way. | Consciousness contains three fragments: ego, superego, and id.

Post-Anarchism, or Post-Structuralist Anarchism is anarchism understood not as a certain set of social arrangements, or even as a particular revolutionary project, but rather as a sensibility, a certain ethos or way of living and seeing the world which is impelled by the realization of the freedom that one already has. It suggests that revolution – as a way of thinking about radical political changes – is no longer operational, and proposes the notion of insurrection instead – in which one distances oneself from power, rather than seeking to fight against it directly creating a new rule.
In layman's terms, Post-anarchism is not a single coherent theory, but rather refers to the combined works of any number of post-modernists and post-structuralists such as Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Lacan, Jacques Derrida, Jean Baudrillard; postmodern feminists such as Judith Butler; and alongside those of classical anarchist and libertarian philosophers such as Zhuang Zhou, Emma Goldman, Max Stirner, and Friedrich Nietzsche. Thus, the terminology can vary widely in both approach and outcome.
History
The term "post-anarchism" was coined by philosopher of 
post-left anarchy Hakim Bey in his 1987 essay "Post-Anarchism Anarchy." Bey argued that 
anarchism had become insular and sectarian, confusing the various anarchist schools of thought for the real experience of lived anarchy. In 1994, Todd May initiated what he called "poststructuralist anarchism", arguing for a theory grounded in the post-structuralist understanding of power, particularly through the work of Michel Foucault and Emma Goldman, while taking the anarchist approach to ethics.
The "Lacanian anarchism" proposed by Saul Newman utilizes the works of Jacques Lacan and 
Max Stirner more prominently. Newman criticizes classical anarchists, such as 
Mikhail Bakunin and 
Peter Kropotkin, for assuming an objective "human nature" and natural order; he argues that from this approach, humans progress and are well-off by nature, with only the Establishment as a limitation that forces behavior otherwise. For Newman, this is a worldview that depicts the reversal of 
Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan, in which the "good" state is subjugated by the "evil" people.
Lewis Call has attempted to develop post-anarchist theory through the work of 
Friedrich Nietzsche, rejecting the Cartesian concept of the "subject." From here, a radical form of anarchism is made possible: the anarchism of becoming. This anarchism does not have an eventual goal, nor does it flow into "being"; it is not a final state of development, nor a static form of society, but rather becomes permanent, as a means without end. Italian autonomist Giorgio Agamben has also written about this idea. In this respect it is similar to the "complex systems" view of emerging society known as 
"Panarchy". Call critiques 
liberal notions of language, consciousness, and rationality from an anarchist perspective, arguing that they are inherent in economic and political power within the capitalist state organization.
Duane Rousselle has approached the term from the perspective of Lacanian psychoanalysis in After Post-Anarchism and Post-Anarchism: A Reader. The journal Anarchist Developments in Cultural Studies has been a key academic journal disseminating post-anarchist theory.
Variants
Deleuzoguattarian Anarchism
Deleuze and Guattari aren't political thinkers but philosophers, still, something prescriptive can be taken from their books Capitalism and Schizophrenia, Anti-Oedipus and A Thousand Plateaus. It is strongly discouraged to read them before you understand 
Sigmund Freud and his successor 
Jacques Lacan. What are those ideas in short:
Consciousness contains three fragments: ego, superego, and id. Its role is to produce desires, the superego attempts to hold those desires back by morality, shame, and critique, and the ego is the judge that tries to make decisions from this dialog. When something goes wrong in those relations person becomes insane, and a psychologist should intervene and through dialog, calm down the id or superego. Deleuze and Guattari being part of the anti-psychiatry movement, say that this is coercion. Not only the superego, ego, and id should be free, but the id shouldn't even be whole. They compare it with the factory of desires, and it is inhabited by many personalities, just like the proletariat should be freed from the factory, those personalities should be freed to live separately, creating each their own desire, in short, every person should become a schizophrenic, however, they don't oppose the formation of "healthy" consciousness, they are against of formation of consciousness through coercive means by the society. As well they believe that all forms of society should be free to practice since telling what is normal and not is a form of fascism, for example, they believe capitalism can be practiced in the post-capitalist society, despite being Marxists in a very orthodox way.

Landian Accelerationism - What happened to Land? You're an embarrassment...
Minarchism - "The problem with the minimal state such as that advocated by Nozick, is that it is never minimal in practice: on the contrary, a state which preoccupies itself with security functions – military and police force – is in fact highly interventionist, intrusive and authoritarian. The libertarian minimal state always ends up as a Leviathan state."
Anarcho-Capitalism - An individual impeded by the hurdles of capital is a free individual.
