Anarchism stands for liberation of the human mind from the dominion of religion; the liberation of the human body from the dominion of property; liberation from shackles and restraint of government. It stands for social order based on the free grouping of individuals.

This defines anarchism as freedom on three fronts: thought released from religious authority, bodies released from ownership and property claims, and people released from government restraint. In its place it proposes an order made by individuals choosing freely to associate, not by rulers imposing structure.
