'Theoretical'
[edit]Do we really need to have it be 'theoretical economic systems' instead of just 'economics systems'? I guess this is a reference to these economic systems not having been done on a large scale, but (most? all?) have been conducted to a certain extent, and all 'economic systems' are theoretical, so this seems unnecessary to me and cumbersome. I think we should drop the 'theoretical'. Byelf2007 (talk) 17 November 2012
Scope
[edit]What is the actual scope of this article? It currently contains a mishmash of concepts loosely connected to how anarchists think about money, goods, and trades, and mostly copied from the ledes of other articles. It ultimately reads like a retread of Anarchism, introducing a bunch of different schools of thought and then barely touching upon its "economic" functions. czar 16:22, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- Wow aye, scope creep has done a number on this article hasn't it. Seems like this is another one of those "everything but the kitchen sink" articles where anything with even a marginal relation to the subject has been thrown in. The lead summary thing is quite bad, including information that has already failed verification and been removed from their main articles.
- There's definitely a version of an anarchist economics article that could be helpful. The Accumulation of Freedom alone would provide a better skeleton than... whatever this article currently is.
- I may get around to culling this article at some point in the future. Right now it's basically unreadable. -- Grnrchst (talk) 15:31, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
- My assessment is that this doesn't cohere into a cogent topic. Even with The Accumulation of Freedom, it's a bunch of essays on anarchist systems of exchange and not a coherent "anarchist economics", hence the article we have, which is essentially the lede section of every article at the intersection of anarchism and a system of exchange. Further condense it, remove the peripheral concepts, and the existing Anarchism § Schools of thought section—with its overviews of mutualism, anarchist communism, and collectivism—is sufficient at conveying whatever overview there is to know about proposed anarchist systems of exchange. Open to further discussion, of course, but redirecting there seems like the best approach for the lack of coherent overview. czar 15:43, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
“Anarcho Distributism”
[edit]Are we able to polish, or perhaps strike, the section on anarchist distributism? It is completely unsourced, and full of grammar and spelling mistakes.
I would find the original contributor(s) and ask for clarification but I’m not terribly experienced as a wiki editor 8.19.56.179 (talk) 19:14, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- I've gone ahead and removed this, didn't see any reason worth keeping it. -- Grnrchst (talk) 17:52, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
