Traditionally, "libertarian" was a term coined by the French libertarian communist and "Le Libertaire" editor Joseph Déjacque to mean a form of left-wing politics that has been frequently used to refer to anarchism and libertarian socialism since the mid- to late 19th century. Sébastien Faure, another French libertarian communist, began publishing a new ' in the mid-1890s while France's Third Republic enacted the so-called villainous laws ("lois scélérates") which banned anarchist publications in France. "Libertarian" was further popularized by the libertarian socialist Benjamin Tucker around the late 1870s and early 1880s.
