Anarchists hold different views as to the economic and legal organisation of society; some favour collectivist anarchism, anarcho-syndicalism or participatory economics while others support market systems like mutualism, agorism, or anarcho-capitalism. Others, such as anarcho-communists and post left anarchists prefer no solid form of organization. According to The Oxford Companion to Philosophy, "there is no single defining position that all anarchists hold, beyond their rejection of compulsory government, and those considered anarchists at best share a certain family resemblance". Anarchist schools of thought differ fundamentally, supporting anything from extreme individualism to complete collectivism. Some anarchists have opposed coercion, while others have supported it, particularly in the form of violent revolution on the path to anarchy or utopia.

What factors contributed to the Red Scare of the 1920s?
The labor strikes during the 20s, especially the Boston Police Strike of 1919, frightened Americans. It was feared that the strikes were being controlled by communist or socialist agitators or anarchists. There was also fear of immigrants during this time period. The Russian Revolution, the violence associated with it, and the take over of Russia by the Communists also added to the fear in American society. Many Americans believed that most immigrants were anarchists, communists, or worse, attempting to bring down the government and values that were the United States. The result of the Red Scare was the Palmer Raids ordered by Wilson's Attorney-General, A. Mitchel Palmer. He ordered the round up of immigrants and known anarchists and suspected communists and socialists and had them deported. Many were innocent immigrants caught up in the fear.
