Market anarchism,^[1] also known as free-market anti-capitalism,^[2] is the branch of anarchism that advocates a free-market economic system based on voluntary interactions without the involvement of the state. A form of individualist anarchism^[3] and libertarian socialism,^[4] it is based on the economic theories of mutualism and individualist anarchism in the United States.^[2]

Samuel Edward Konkin III's agorism is a strand of left-wing market anarchism that has been associated with left-libertarianism.^[5] Anarcho-capitalism has also been referred to synonymously as free-market anarchism.^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]
