==History==
Existentialist Nihilism as a philosophy was created around the 19th century. Though not directly stated by Max Stirner, the idea of Existentialism having a grounds for anarchism came about through the writings of Max Stirner and Friedrich Nietzsche. Before the Second World War, when existentialism was not yet in name, [[w:Franz_Kafka|Franz Kafka]] and [[w:Friedrich_Nietzsche|Martin Buber]] were among these thinkers who were also anarchists. Both are today sometimes seen as [[w:Jewish_existentialism|Jewish existentialists]] as well as [[File:Anjew.png|frameless]] [[Jewish Anarchism|Jewish anarchists]]. These philosophers were the leaders in the Existentialist Anarchist movement. In the 21st century, philosophers have introduced the idea of Optimistic Nihilism, which closely represents a view of Existentialism that views we’re not doomed to live in a meaningless universe–it’s that we get the chance to experience ourselves and the universe we share. This 21st century view of not only [[File:Nihil.png]] [[mh:philosophyball:Nihilism|Nihilism]], but Existentialism is becoming increasingly popular, and is shown in the scope of politics through political theorists like Evan Stoller.

*[[File:Anego.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism]] - "It is saying that man is the reality—not even man in the abstract, but the human person, you and I; and that everything else—freedom, love, reason, God—is a contingency depending on the will of the individual. In this respect, existentialism has much in common with Max Stirner's egoism." Herbet Read.

===Literature ===
Existential anarchism doesn't have any devoted theory to it, but has been mentioned by Max Stirner in [https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Ego_and_His_Own.html?id=7EBYAAAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button&newbks=1&newbks_redir=1#v=onepage&q&f=false The Ego and His Own]. Existentialism as a separate theory is explored in the works of philosophers such as the Søren Kierkegaard, who is regarded as being the founder of existentialist thought as a whole. It is important to note however that Kierkegaard himself was not an anarchist and in reality was rather conservative.
