Pantarchy


Pantarchy is a social theory proposed by Stephen Pearl Andrews in the 19th century. Andrews was considered the "American rival of Comte," because of his work on an all-encompassing philosophy of universology, and his political proposals had similar scope, combining elements of the individualist anarchism of Josiah Warren, whose works Andrews had edited, with a strong belief in natural hierarchy.
Andrews scheme of pantarchy was discussed in a series of "Weekly Bulletins" in the pages of Woodhull and Claflin's Weekly. The American Section 12 of the International Workingmen's Association adopted some of Andrews' proposals.
