Question

These speakers are debating the form of government their country should take: Speaker 1: The government must have absolute power to enact whatever policies are needed to make the country safe and stable. Speaker 2: All governments oppress their people; there should be no government at all. Speaker 3: The government should be fairly powerful, as long as its powers are clearly laid out in a governing document. Speaker 4: No government should have more power than our most respected religious leaders. Which speaker is advocating for anarchy in the country?

Answer 1

The speaker is defending anarchy in the country is number 2.

Anarchy is a political concept that preaches the elimination of any form of compulsory government.

Anarchy, contrary to popular culture, has nothing to do with the absence of order. But the absence of coercion. That is, anarchists are basically against any hierarchical order that is not freely accepted. The mistaken notion of the movement was promoted by political opposition and religious movements throughout the twentieth century. In the same way, anarchism is mistakenly accused of being a movement without solidarity, whereas, in fact, anarchism has as basic precept the mutual assistance between men.
