There are several anarchist thinkers, such as Benjamin Tucker, [Lysander Spooner]? and [Max Stirner]?, who are known as individualist anarchists. They are claimed as part of their tradition by anarcho-capitalists as well as by libertarian socialists, who criticize differently the works of these authors.

Anarcho-capitalists appreciate the emphasis given by these thinkers on individual rights and liberty, and on market-based approaches rather than collectivism; they consider that Proudhon was mistaken on the matter of rent and private property, and that Bastiat's response to Proudhon was successful, which made Proudhon modify his position with time.

Modern individualist anarchists tend to tell both libertarian socialists and anarcho-capitalists to stop arguing just leave each other be, for in a free society, each and every one would live under the system one prefers, and experience would teach every individual which system he personally prefers to live in.
