| Pierre-Joseph Proudhon |
Proudhon was the first person to refer to himself as an
anarchist. He declared in 1849: "Whoever lays his hand on me to govern me
is a usurper and tyrant, and I declare him my enemy."
In What is Property?, published in 1840, he defined anarchy
as "the absence of a master, of a sovereign", and in The General idea
of the Revolution (1851) he urged a "society without authority."
