Although "laissez-faire" has been commonly associated with capitalism, there is a similar economic theory associated with socialism called left-wing or socialist "laissez-faire", also known as free-market anarchism, free-market anti-capitalism and free-market socialism to distinguish it from "laissez-faire" capitalism. Critics of "laissez-faire" as commonly understood argue that a truly "laissez-faire" system would be anti-capitalist and socialist. American individualist anarchists such as Benjamin Tucker saw themselves as economic free-market socialists and political individualists while arguing that their "anarchistic socialism" or "individual anarchism" was "consistent Manchesterism".
