Anarchy simply means without ruler. It is a form of government without official rules and formal punishments for breaking them. It is a political theory with many schools of thought, ranging from Communist Anarchy, to fully Capitalist Anarchy, to Primitive Anarchy and everywhere in between.

Actually, anarchy (in terms of political science) means a complete lack of formal government. There may be a de facto form of governance occurring, but there is no actual legalgovernment framework. Thus, there are no laws of any sort, and all governance is informal, generally in the form of either complete consensus (as in either a communal or direct democracy style) or authoritarian (via a single or group strongman concept).
