Question

What is an Anarchist? How did this idea and other government ideas drive the Red Scare of the 1920'?

Answer 1

Answer:

Anarchism is the political movement whose objective is to achieve a society in which people live without a higher power or authority, such as a government. As a political movement, the modern anarchist movement emerged around 1860 as an offshoot of socialism. The main difference between the two currents is that anarchism, even after the revolution, rejects any form of central authority, while socialism seeks to establish a popular government. Many anarchist movements agree that the means of production should be collectively owned, but managed collectively and not by a central entity. As it rejects all forms of political organization, it was seen as one of the many political movements that caused the red scare in the 1920s, along with communism and socialism.
