Anarchism - a political philosophy that is based on freedom and having the aim of destroying all types of coercion and exploitation of man by man. Anarchism proposes to replace the cooperation of individual power that exists due to the suppression of man by man, and thanks to some privileges to others. This means that, according to anarchists, social relations and institutions must be based on personal interest, mutual consent and responsibility (coming from the personal interest) of each participant, and all types of government (ie, coercion and exploitation) must be eliminated.

Seven basic principles of anarchism:
1. lack of power
2. freedom from coercion
3. freedom of association
4. mutual aid
5. diversity
6. equality
7. fraternity
-Lack of power means that in an anarchist society, one person or group of persons will not impose its opinion, the desire and will of others. It also implies the absence of hierarchy and participatory democracy, as well as authoritarian rule. Anarchism precludes any kind of calls for the construction of the totalitarian society in which all people will be subjected to total control, and all spheres of human life will be standardized until the complete uniformity. On the contrary, Anarchism calls for a maximum development of every individual and personalized approach to solving the problems and needs of individuals, if there is a possibility.
-Freedom from coercion implies the rejection of coercion, of some other people to participate in whatever activity it was, whether it is in the interests of the individual or even the whole society, against his will. Participation in socially significant activities or projects should be carried out by anarchist thought is not under external pressure, but only if manifestations of personal responsibility to the society of which it is.
-Freedom of association implies that in a society organized on anarchist principles may be any kind of association to meet all the needs of society, all public bodies must be freely united people having an equal right to determine the future of society.

I believe that the seat of power should be introduced the principle of real grass-roots initiatives, when the people themselves, would collectively decide social issues, and individually (without harm to others) their personal issues. For the sake of solving any problems that concern society as a whole, as well as projects that affect the wider society, the initiative should be built from the bottom up, rather than vice versa. If there is a need for large organizations, such as waste collection and recycling, development of computer technology, use of natural resources, the organization of industrial production, energy, and then whatever else, I propose to create a federated community from the bottom up, right up to world level, or at confederal basis, with a wide branching horizontal ties. When you create a federalist education offers to them through a system of delegation, with the right of immediate recall of delegates, based on the principle of the imperative mandate. Federation based on the same basic principles, but they act through a representative of the groups. These delegates should not decide for nominating his people, but they must fulfill their obligations (this is the principle of the imperative mandate).
Two subsequent principle are interrelated. Mutual aid - is synonymous with cooperation. When people work together, their activities are significantly more effective than when each works alone. Collective interaction - is a shorter way to achieve the desired result with the least possible expenditure of effort. Diversity - a pledge most fulfilling life of every individual, of which society consists. Fordist-Taylorist organization of production, standardization, mass production, standardization alienates people from each other, contributes to the fragmentation of society into selfish, concerned only with its own interests at the expense of others. These trends, moreover, contribute to environmental destruction. On the other hand, trends in the development of civilization contribute to the development of diversity workflow destandartizatsii and demassifikatsii (which makes anarchism only more urgent the direction of social thought), but because konveyerezatsii horrors of human life, inherently accompany industrialism seem, at least in countries already undergone the process of industrialization, retreating into the past. We can say that diversity - it is more environmentally friendly form of organization, since it implies an individualized approach to production and consumption, and moreover, I believe that public organizations more effectively meet the interests of the people when they have the opportunity to shape their discretion. When human life is based on diversity, humans interact more naturally and directly. In addition, a variety of causes that individuals become increasingly difficult to control. On the other hand you can not romanticize the notion of diversity as it is possible in a capitalist society that gives rise to the notorious "consumer society", which is just the opposite facilitates the exercise of power by the state and capitalism, and, moreover, contributes to more rapid depletion of natural resources.
Anarchism is possible only if the so-called "spatial uncertainty", that is not possible when the total control from above. Unfortunately, the development of modern technology only enhance this control, like not allowing such an order, as anarchism. Meanwhile, in the community of free technology is another uncertainty: between the customer and consumer goods. So in that sense, as a system, anarchism in modern conditions is still possible.
Equality - means there is no hierarchy, equal opportunity for everyone to meet their personal needs in the arts, creativity, product, labor, and equal access to all public benefits, including the latest developments in science and technology.
The Brotherhood - implies that all people are equal, that the interests and needs of one may not be important and / or more valuable than the interests and needs of others.

According to proponents of anarchism, the term "anarchism" and "anarchy" are among those most often presented to the public in a distorted and wrongly used to mean "chaos" or "a mess" - in this case argued that anarchists desire social chaos allegedly and return to the "law of the jungle", or "war of all against all."
In response, the anarchists point out that the Greek αν-prefix in the word «αναρχ
