The terms left anarchism and left-wing anarchism distinguish collectivist anarchism from laissez-faire anarchism and right-libertarian philosophies.[1][2] They refer to philosophies which posit a future society in which private property is replaced by reciprocity and non-hierarchical society.[3][4] The term left anarchism is sometimes used synonymously with libertarian socialism,[5] left-libertarianism, or socialist anarchism.[6] More traditional anarchists typically discourage the concept of "left-wing" theories of anarchism on grounds of redundancy, that it lends legitimacy to the notion, in their view the misconception, that anarchism is compatible with capitalism[7][8] or nationalism.[9][10]

Ulrike Heider, a syndicalist, categorized anarchism into left anarchism, right anarchism (anarcho-capitalism), and green anarchism.[11][page needed] Her work has been strongly criticised by anarchist academics including Bryan Caplan and Murray Bookchin for what they see as the poor quality of its research and presentation.[12][13]
