Samuel Edward Konkin III's agorism is a strand of left-wing market anarchism that has been associated with left-libertarianism."Anarchism". In Gaus, Gerald F.; D'Agostino, Fred, eds. (2012). The Routledge Companion to Social and Political Philosophy. p. 227. "Later [left-libertarianism] became a term for the left or Konkinite wing of the free-market libertarian movement, and has since come to cover a range of pro-market but anti-capitalist positions, mostly individualist anarchist, including agorism and mutualism, often with an implication of sympathies (such as for radical feminism or the labor movement) not usually shared by anarcho-capitalists." Anarcho-capitalism has also been referred to synonymously as free-market anarchism{{cite book|last=Carrier|first=James G.|title=Meanings of the Market: The Free Market in Western Culture|year=1997|publisher=Berg|location=Oxford|edition=1|page=[https://archive.org/details/meaningsofmarket0000unse/page/107 107]|isbn=1-85973-149-X|url=https://archive.org/details/meaningsofmarket0000unse/page/107}}Miller, G.

Introduction to Political Theory. p. 243. due to contending definitions of the terms ‘markets’ and ‘capitalism’ which are not used by free-market anti-capitalists.Chartier, Gary. Johnson, Charles H. Markets Not Capitalism: Individualist Anarchism Against Bosses, Inequality, Corporate Power, and Structural Poverty. Brooklyn: Minor Compositions/Autonomedia. pp 60-61. “In order to get clear on the topic in a conversation about ‘Free Market Anticapitalism,’ the obvious points where clarification may be needed are going to be the meaning of capitalism, the meaning of markets, and the meaning of freedom in the market context… market anarchists have spent a lot of time…the possibility of disentangling multiple senses of ‘capitalism’…The meaning of the term is obviously central to any free market economics…Pro-capitalist economists have often suggested such a broad understanding of ‘markets’ even if they have not fully understood…its implications. For example Murray Rothbard….”
