AO1 Anarchists agree that an ideal society will be without a state. AO2 An idea that unites the different strands of anarchism is that a future society must not have a state. [IJ] We can conclude that anarchists do have a common view of an ideal stateless society. AO1 Anarchists agree that in an ideal society there will be liberty. AO2 All strands of anarchism argue in favour of liberty in an ideal anarchist society. [IJ] We can form a judgement that the consensus on the need for greater freedom in an ideal society shows that anarchists have a common view. AO1 Anarchists agree to reject existing forms of authority and coercive, hierarchical relationships. AO2 Anarchists reject all forms of coercive relationships, and the ideal society for most anarchists is built on freedom and equality. [IJ] We can reach the judgment that anarchists have a common view that an ideal society will be both free and equal.

AO1 Anarchists disagree on the nature of the economy in an ideal society. AO2 There are wide differences between anarchist traditions on what type of economic system there should be in an ideal society, from free-market capitalism to mutualism (Proudhon) to anarcho-communism (Kropotkin). [IJ] We can reach the judgement that the significant differences between anarchists over the economy mean that they do not have a common view on an ideal society. AO1 There is no clear blueprint for the ideal society and anarchists disagree over whether an ideal society should be based on individualism or collectivism. AO2 Although all agreeing that there should be maximum liberty in an ideal society, anarchists are deeply divided over whether this requires a society based on individualism (Stirner) or collectivism (Proudhon, Kropotkin, Bakunin). [IJ] We can conclude that the deep divisions between anarchists over individualism or collectivism mean that they do not have a common view of an ideal society. AO1 The key division is between individualists and collectivists over the individual and liberty. AO2 Individualists (Stirner) are concerned that the individual will be made a slave to the collective whilst collectivists believe individuals are only free in an ideal society through collective work. [IJ] We can form a judgement that the different views anarchists hold towards the importance of the individual and liberty mean that they do not have a common view of an ideal society.
