Etymology

The term 'anarcho' is derived from the Greek prefix 'an-', meaning 'without', and the Greek word 'archos', meaning 'ruler' or 'authority'. Anarcho has its roots in the 19th century when anarchist thinkers like Pierre-Joseph Proudhon and Mikhail Bakunin developed theories advocating for the abolition of hierarchical systems of power. Today, anarcho remains a key concept in anarchist and anti-authoritarian movements around the world.
