This post is not an attempt to address the question fully. Rather, it is a full copy of a specific response, first given on a Facebook thread, to a paper by left-wing market anarchist Roderick T. Long, that casts his position as a mediating and unifying point for the extremes of social anarchism and anarcho-capitalism.
"Overall, this seems to be a fair and broad survey. I knew about 15% of it, and at least that checks out -- the rest of is something that I am glad to learn. Thank you for your research and synthesis.
Main questions :
"What is the State?" -- I realize this is not a question with a uniform answer in "anarchist" history. However, I am interested in your answer.
"What is property?" -- again, I am interested in your answer.
"What is common ownership"? -- ditto.
Other reflections directly on your paper.
"Emma Goldman, undisputedly a communist anarchist" -- I doubt the older Emma Goldman would appreciate the "communist" label.
Was Spooner truly "anti-capitalist"? [I note that you answer this negatively elsewhere]
Ancaps have no consensus opinion on whether anarchism and free markets lead to (let alone, mandate the moral acceptance of) economic concentration and wage labor. In fact, many have speculated the opposite (in fact, you allude to Friedman in perhaps this regard later?). Regardless, it is not a subject of interest to ancaps qua capitalism.
"for ancaps, by contrast, capitalism properly understood is a system of liberty, to which no true libertarian, surely, could be opposed." I provide a different nuance in [C].
(note to self : important point that I will discuss in follow-up so as to not load the discussion here)
ancaps most certainly do not "identify free markets with capitalism (in the sense of economic concentration and a wage system), " and then further they do not claim that the case for the former is a case for the latter!
anarcho-capitalism and libertarianism is not in the lineage of classical liberalism -- rather it represents a break from it (see paragraph "Coming back to the somewhat related subject" on wards in reference [D])
"Rothbard’s call for the return of conquistador-stolen land to the peasants" -- what has this to do with being anti-capitalist?
