A framework that applies anarchist principles—anti‑authoritarianism, decentralization, voluntary association, mutual aid—to logic and knowledge. It rejects any single, centralized standard of rationality, arguing that epistemic authority reproduces political hierarchy. Anarchist logico‑epistemology favors horizontal, consensual knowledge practices, local and context‑sensitive reasoning, and the rejection of gatekeeping institutions (journals, universities, peer review as imposed authority). It draws on thinkers like Bakunin, Kropotkin, and contemporary anarchist epistemology, promoting epistemic self‑governance.
