    Anarchy is a situation where there is no real government, or no one in charge, so order falls apart. In news and history it often means a country after the state has collapsed: no police you can trust, no clear rules.

    Anarchyanarchy is a situation是指一種狀況 where there is no real government, or no one in charge沒有真正的政府,也沒有人在管事, so order falls apart所以秩序完全瓦解。In news and history在新聞和歷史裡 it often means它常常是指 a country after the state has collapsed一個國家在政府垮台之後的樣子: no police you can trust沒有你能信任的警察, no clear rules也沒有清楚的規則。

    In everyday talk, people also say a classroom or a workplace is anarchy when it is just noisy and nobody is listening. Though actually, that everyday use paints a picture of a mess; it is not a political plan.

    In everyday talk在日常說法裡, people also say大家也會說 a classroom or a workplace is anarchy一間教室或一個職場是anarchy when it is just noisy and nobody is listening當它只是很吵、沒人在聽的時候。Though actually不過其實, that everyday use paints a picture of a mess這種日常用法講的只是一片混亂的畫面; it is not a political plan不是在講什麼政治主張。

    There is a related idea called — the belief that we would be better without the state — and that is a belief people argue about, not the same thing as the government has fallen. One is a hope or a theory; the other is a crisis.

    There is a related idea called還有一個相關的概念叫 anarchismanarchism — the belief that we would be better without the state也就是「沒有國家我們會過得更好」這種信念 — and that is a belief people argue about而這是一種大家會爭論的信念, not the same thing as the government has fallen跟「政府垮台」不是同一回事。One is a hope or a theory一個是希望或理論; the other is a crisis另一個是危機。

    The word feels serious in and a bit dramatic when you use it for a noisy room.

    The word feels serious in politics這個字在政治語境裡感覺很嚴肅 and a bit dramatic when you use it for a noisy room但用在形容吵鬧的房間時就有點誇張。

anarchynoun/ˈæn.ə.ki/

  • 1

    The state of a society being without authorities or an authoritative governing body.

    • La propriété et la royauté sont en démolition dès le commencement du monde ; comme l’homme cherche la justice dans l’égalité, la société cherche l’ordre dans l’anarchie. Anarchie, absence de maître, de souverain, telle est la forme de gouvernement dont nous approchons tous les jours, et que l’habitude invétérée de prendre l’homme pour règle et sa volonté pour loi nous fait regarder comme le comble du désordre et l’expression du chaos.
    • Oui, l’anarchie c’est l'ordre; car, le gouvernement c’est la guerre civile.
  • 2

    rareThe political theory that a community is best organized by the voluntary cooperation of individuals, rather than by a government, which is regarded as being coercive by nature.

    • Своею полемикою против них мы довели их до сознания, что свобода или анархия, т. е. вольная организация ра­бочих масс снизу вверх, есть окончательная цель общественного развития, и что всякое государство, не исключая и их народного, есть ярмо, значит с одной стороны порождает деспотизм, а с другой рабство. Они говорят, что такое государственное ярмо-диктатура есть необходимое переходное средство для достижения полнейшего народного освобождения: анархия или свобода — цель, государство или дикта­тура — средство. Итак для освобождения народных масс надо их сперва поработить.
    • Libertarianism is the view that each man is the absolute owner of his life, to use and dispose of as he sees fit: that all man's social actions should be voluntary: and that respect for every other man's similar and equal ownership of life and, by extension, the property and fruits of that life, is the ethical basis of a humane and open society. In this view, the only — repeat, only — function of law or government is to provide the sort of self-defense against violence that an individual, if he were powerful enough, would provide for himself. If it were not for the fact that libertarianism freely concedes the right of men voluntarily to form communities or governments on the same ethical basis, libertarianism could be called anarchy.
  • 3

    A chaotic and confusing absence of any form of political authority or government.

    • And each dweller, panic-stricken, Felt his heart with terror sicken Hearing the tempestuous cry Of the triumph of Anarchy.
    • Anarchy still reigns in this new country;—not only have the miners to defend their persons and their acquisitions against the incursions from Indian tribes; not only are crimes and offences common (lynch law maintaining a permitted existence instead of laws and police); but every one appears to hold his property by right of first comer: a miner choses the spot he likes best; a strong arm and a carbine, with a steady eye, are his title deeds. To seize upon a rich "placer" from a miner too weak to resist, is called in the slang of the district, to "jump a claim." The President of the United States himself, stated in his last message, that "The mineral lands should remain free to every citizen;" and the Secretary of State has added, "that the right of occupancy should be submitted only to such laws as the miners themselves thought fit to make."
