'''Existentialist Anarchism''', also known as '''Anarcho-Existentialism''' or '''AnEx''', is a [[File:Anpostleft.png]] [[:Category:Post-Left|Post-left]] ideology that believes a truly [[File:Indiv.png]] Individualist society is only possible through the realization of existentialist philosophy. It could be seen as a reflection of [[File:Annil.png]] [[Anarcho-Nihilism]] that has a more positive outlook on life.

==Variants==
===[[File:Sartre.png]] Satrean Existentialism===
====Philosophical stances====
Sartre Advocated Atheist Existentialism. According to him, human is not a creation made by God's plan, but is an existence incidentally thrown away. Thus there is no pregiven essense nor determined objective to be realized for human.

Sartre, for these reasons, say that human is an existence that is condemned to be free. It is because human who has nothing predetermined must make their own life by making independent choice every moment. In other words, it makes their own essense through existence. Sartre expressed this as quote "existence preceeds essense."

Although human has a freedom to choose, it cannot choose freedom itself. In other words, human have no choice but to be free regardless of whether it wants it or not. Consequently free man fundamentally cannot avoid responsibility related with his choice. And this situation of exisstence including freedom and responsibility causes us agnst.

Human who has fallen into angst of existence escapes from free choice, which Sartre saw as bad faith. Bad faith is an attitude which denies freedom and independence and conform to [[File:Trad.png]] established custom, [[File:Sec.png]] fixed law or principle, or [[File:Religious.png]] existence such as God. Thus he emphasized life which the man escapes from bad faith by making independent choice, and is responsible to his own choice.
====Political stances====
Sartre became a communist activist after the Spanish civil war. He supported [[File:Lpop.png]] popular revolutions as he saw it as a realization of true freedom.

He participated in [[File:RedAntifa.png]] resistance movement during World War Two. After the war, Sartre supported concept of [[File:Violentprog.png]] progressive violence and [[File:Stalin.png]] Stalin regime. He advocated [[File:Activm.png]] comitted literature which the writer actively participate in political issues. After Khrushchev repressed Hungarian revolution, he disowned French Communist Party and Soviet Union. He supported many socialist leaders such as [[File:Nasser2.png]] Nasser, [[File:Guevara.png]] Guevara (who he called as 'the most complete human being of our age') and ect. He supported [[File:Cball-Algeria.png]] Algerian independence from France which led him an assasination attempt. He rejected and criticized Nobel Literature Prize. He supported [[File:Mao.png]] Maoism during 60's and 70's as a protest against [[File:AES.png]] Actually Existing Socialism. After American envolvement in Vietnam War, he along with [[File:BertrandRussel.png]] Bertrand Russell [[File:Pac.png]] opposed the war and staged Anti-War protests. During the protests of 68, he advised young people to actively participate in politics. He suddenly became blind in 1973 and died in 1980.
===[[File:Camus.png]] Absurdism and Midday Thought ===
====Absurdism====
Camus advocated Absurdism. According to Camus, absurdity is not inherent in human nor the universe, but in the relationship between it. We expect rationality and morality in the universe, but it is simply not true. [[File:Absurd.png]] Every attempts for absolute or definite knowledge is inherently futile, and there is no unconditional reward or punishment for our actions.

Camus considers three posibilities for our situation. The first possibility is [[File:Nihil.png]] despair, which we stop fighting for our objectives and kill ourselves. The second possibility is [[File:Religious.png]] hope (which he calls it as 'philosophical suicide' in other words), which we stop percieving reality as it is and fall in blind belief that the universe will eventually be as we desire it to be. The third possibility is rebellion, which we acknowledge that the situation is hopeless, but still continue to fight for what we believe in. Camus rejects despair and hope, as these posibilities give up the struggle against absurdity, and instead accepts rebellion.

In his advocation of life and rebellion, he affirms libertine way of life, as the way still values life and not despair and suicide.

He mentioned the myth of Sisyphus, which the Sisyphus had the punishment of having to endlessly roll up a rock to the top of the mountain. He argued that one must never give up struggle even in the most hopeless situation, thus "one must imagine Sisyphus happy".

====Midday Thought====
He defined the rebel as a person who says both 'yes' and 'no'. He says 'yes' to [[File:Humanismpix.png]] inherent human dignity and 'no' to the situation in which the dignity is oppressed. For Camus, [[File:Antiexistentialism.png]] unlike existentialists, existence do NOT precede essense, and essense (human dignity) precede existence.

However, when the rebel forgets his original causes and stops saying both 'yes' AND 'no', the rebellion soon corrupts into meaningless bloodshed. For Camus, both unconditional 'yes' and unconditional 'no' is equally [[File:Nihil.png]] nihilistic.

During his critique of both metaphysical rebellion and historical rebellion ― such as [[File:Marquis_de_Sade.png]] Sade, [[File:Romanticism.png]] Romanticist Movement, [[File:Stirner.png]] Stirner, [[File:Nietzsche.png]] Nietzsche, Surrealist Movement, [[File:Rousseau.png]] Rousseau, [[File:Redterror.png]] Jacobins, [[File:Hegel.png]] Hegel, [[File:RussianNil.png]] Russian Nihilism, [[File:Lenin.png]] Lenin ― he criticized [[File:Marxflag.png]] Marxism the most for it's dogmatism and ongoing consequences.

He advocated 'Midday Thought' which [[File:Pac.png]] denies all sorts of violence and retains the origin of rebellion. Although he acknowledges that there is a situation where the violence is essentially unavoidable, he still advocates that there must be a limitation and condition for violence.
===[[File:Borges.png]] Borgesism===
Jorge Luis Borges is an Argentine [[File:Postmodernicon.png]] post-modern writer. His works usually involves around labyrinth, infinity, fantasy and challenges essentialist viewpoint.

He opposed communism, arguing that the mechanic view of humanity which is the basis of communism leads to totalitarian oppression.

==History==
Existentialist Nihilism as a philosophy was created around the 19th century. Though not directly stated by Max Stirner, the idea of Existentialism having a grounds for anarchism came about through the writings of Max Stirner and Friedrich Nietzsche. Before the Second World War, when existentialism was not yet in name, [[w:Franz_Kafka|Franz Kafka]] and [[w:Friedrich_Nietzsche|Martin Buber]] were among these thinkers who were also anarchists. Both are today sometimes seen as [[w:Jewish_existentialism|Jewish existentialists]] as well as [[File:Anjew.png|frameless]] [[Jewish Anarchism|Jewish anarchists]]. These philosophers were the leaders in the Existentialist Anarchist movement. In the 21st century, philosophers have introduced the idea of Optimistic Nihilism, which closely represents a view of Existentialism that views we’re not doomed to live in a meaningless universe–it’s that we get the chance to experience ourselves and the universe we share. This 21st century view of not only [[File:Nihil.png]] Nihilism, but Existentialism is becoming increasingly popular, and is shown in the scope of politics through political theorists like Evan Stoller.

==Personality and Behavior==
Specializing in aggressively pensive stares, Existential anarchism doesn't utilize any emotions other than a quiet depression.

While they enjoy debate they strictly only do so on a respectful and peaceful level, usually opting out almost immediately if the other side becomes aggressive.

Existential Anarchism strives to find their own individual meaning and tends to love profound talks about life. ExAn also tends to be quite philosophical and can be seen giving lessons to people about the philosophies of [[w:Abraham_Maslow|Maslow]], [[w:Friedrich_Nietzsche|Nietzsche]], [[w:Albert_Camus|Camus]], or [[w:Jean-Paul_Sartre|Sartre]].

*[[File:Anego.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism]] - "It is saying that man is the reality—not even man in the abstract, but the human person, you and I; and that everything else—freedom, love, reason, God—is a contingency depending on the will of the individual. In this respect, existentialism has much in common with Max Stirner's egoism." Herbet Read.

==Further Information==
===Literature===
Existential anarchism doesn't have any devoted theory to it, but has been mentioned by Max Stirner in [https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Ego_and_His_Own.html?id=7EBYAAAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button&newbks=1&newbks_redir=1#v=onepage&q&f=false The Ego and His Own]. Existentialism as a separate theory is explored in the works of philosophers such as Søren Kierkegaard, who is regarded as being the founder of existentialist thought as a whole. It is important to note however that Kierkegaard himself was not an anarchist and in reality was rather conservative.
