'''Agorism''', shortened to '''A<sup>3</sup>''' ('''Anarchy, Agora, Action'''), is an Anarchist, economically right-wing and anti-copyright ideology.
 
First proposed by Samuel Edward Konkin III, Agorism is generally more about the means than the ends. It, in short, states that the best way to achieve a free society is peaceful, through participation in all forms of trade (legal or illegal) which do not violate the Non-Aggression Principle.
 
To this end Agorism promotes Grey and Black markets, while advocating against Red markets. Grey markets are those which are which are legal but outside the framework of the state, Black markets are those which are illegal but not violent, and Red markets are those which are violent (ie those which violate the NAP). The focus of Agorism is on counter-economics, which are defined as the sum of all non-aggressive Human Action which is forbidden by the State.

Konkin abruptly opposed intellectual property rights and wrote an essay called "Copywrongs" about it<ref>Konkin III, Samuel Edward. [http://users.aol.com/vlntryst/wn20.html "Copywrongs"]].

Some agorists distinguish pink markets. Pink markets (legal and immoral from libertarian's perspective) are synthesis of red (illegal and not ethical) and white (legal and ethical). Into red markets belongs taxes, conscription and so on.
