Arathorian Anarchism

Arathorian anarchism is a political theory endemic to the Arathi Highlands, deriving from the broader nascent anarchist movement and traditional Highlands culture. Combining the ideal of individual freedom and communal ownership of property with Arathorian notions of hus and Kin, hypothesized ancient clan quasi-democracies, and elements of the recent attempt by certain tyrannical elements of the government to implement a form of socialized welfare, Arathorian anarchists typically believe in the need for a decentralized government taking the form of local political assemblies.

These local assemblies - which differ in hypothesized form among the collectivist, communist, and traditionalist factions - would consist of all willing peoples in an area. Being based on voluntary association, individuals would have the capability to leave any given assembly and join or form an alternative assembly. In an ideal state, this freedom of association, when coupled with freedom from hunger and poverty, would serve to allow for the necessary flexibility in society to prevent conflict over association with any given assembly.
