Anarchism is a political theory holding all forms of governmental authority to be unnecessary and undesirable. True or False?

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not Applicable
• D. Not Sure

Answer: (A)

Anarchism is the belief that government authority is unnecessary and undesirable, advocating a society organized without a state and based on voluntary cooperation and mutual aid. Because the statement mirrors that core idea—that all governmental authority is unnecessary and undesirable—it is true. The other options don’t fit because they don’t reflect a defined political theory: saying it’s not applicable or not sure doesn’t address the question of whether a recognized theory holds a stance on government, and saying it’s false would contradict anarchism’s fundamental claim about the role of government.
