¹ - These individuals have not applied the label "anarchist" to themselves, perhaps because they predated its popular usage (as with Thoreau), because they dislike catch-all labels, or for a variety of other reasons. However, their ideas hold many similarities to anarchist thinking and they have been associated with anarchism by others.
² - These are anarcho-capitalists, whereas most others are anti-capitalist
