  Well, anarchism refers to the system where the individuals and communities organize on their own, without the central government body. What economical model these individuals and communities choose to follow locally is up to them to decide. In theory, both anarcho-capitalism and anarcho-communism (and maybe anarcho-other models) can exist. "Anarcho-" refers to the political axis, while "capitalism/communism" refers to the economical axis, and the two are somewhat independent and flexible.
  
  I agree, however, that anarcho-capitalism is very much in the spirit of capitalism. Capitalism states that the individuals and organizations exchange capital on a free market, and the lack of external regulatory body (such as government) interfering in this exchange is simply the logically self-consistent implementation of capitalism.

  I guess it just depends on how we interpret "anarchism." It comes from the greek "an-" (without) and "arkhos" (rulers) so it translates to "without rulers" but in the context it's commonly used, it refers to self-governed societies. A self-governed society would have a government, right? Just a very small one that has sovereignty.

  Yes it is. Anarcho-communism is impossible to achieve if it's humans in the society/community.
