While I have often been a critic of those in the punk movement who subscribe to the ideal of anarchy, my research thus far has helped me reevaluate my own position as a participant in both punk and mainstream societies. Anarchy under the punk movement is not, as it may appear, grounded in the proposal of a lawless, chaotic statelessness. It may be strange for a person who has participated heavily as a punk for nearly a decade to write this, but I just got anarchy. It is critical to distinguish the punk proposal of anarchy as the removal of compulsory laws which are created in a non-participatory environment (such as the current constitutional republic of the United States).
