Theoria et praxis anarchismi hodierni Aevo Illuminationis, ut videtur, inceptum habuerunt. Sunt autem qui constant omnes homines voluntatem libertatis habere, et multas societates priscas sine civitate nec auctoritate floruisse. Nihilominus, inter res novas Francicas theoria anarchismi primum enuntiata est. Antea verbum "confusio" vel "licentia effrenata" significabat.
Gulielmus Godwin conditor philosophiae anarchismi dicitur. Liber eius anno 1793 scriptus, cuius titulus est Enquiry concerning Political Justice, and its Influence on General Virtue and Happiness ('Quaestio de iure politico quod virtutem et felicitatem impellat'), dicit omne regnum malum esse.
