Anarcho-pacifism

Anarcho-pacifism is a way of thinking that encourages peaceful methods of solving problems and protecting people’s rights. It is based on two main ideas – anarchism and pacifism. Anarchism is a political philosophy that opposes any kind of authority, like governments or leaders, because it believes everyone should be free and equal to make their own decisions. Pacifism is a belief that violence isn’t the right or best way to deal with problems, so people who are anarcho-pacifists try to find peaceful solutions. They think that people in communities should work together to help and protect each other, without using violence or authoritative power.
