    • Anarcho-capitalism, a political philosophy that advocates the elimination of the state in favor of individual sovereignty, private property, and open markets. (Many anarchists dispute this as a form of anarchism and argue it is a mis-use of the term)
    • Left-wing market anarchism, a political philosophy that strongly affirms the classical liberal ideas of self-ownership and free markets, while maintaining that, taken to their logical conclusions, these ideas support "anti-capitalist" positions
