Agorism is a free-market anarchist philosophy founded by Samuel Edward Konkin III that aims to achieve a voluntary society through "counter-economics." Instead of voting, agorists advocate for peaceful noncompliance, utilizing unregulated black and grey markets to render the state obsolete and irrelevant.As detailed in Konkin's New Libertarian Manifesto, the core tenets and strategies include:Counter-Economics: The sum of all non-violent, untaxed, or state-prohibited economic activity. This includes off-the-books labor, bartering, and using alternative currencies to deprive the state of tax revenue and regulatory control.The Agora: The ultimate goal is an open, free-market society where all human interactions are voluntary and mutually beneficial, free from coercion, theft, or monopolies.Rejection of Politics: Agorists strongly oppose traditional political engagement, viewing state structures as inherently coercive. They argue that participating in elections or lobbying legitimizes the state's authority.For a deeper dive into the revolutionary mechanics of the philosophy, you can read the full text of The New Libertarian Manifesto.
