Best examples of anarchist economic theory and proposals

Great list and thanks for compiling. The only other text I can think of is The Accumulation of Freedom. I haven't read that collection yet, but may be the only 21st century text on anarchists economics?

I actually have that; it's actually a collection of different essays on different topics, and not just about anarchist economics or how exactly a libertarian socialist society would function. It talks about the history of libertarian socialist thinking (Mutualism, Collectivism, and Communism), present-day capitalism (the financial crisis), democratic workplace organization, ways of resisting capitalism, etc. I'm not sure if that's something to include in this list, but I'd still recommend it.

Ah, thanks for the correction. I bought the book for the essays on economics, so that's likely where my confusion comes from.

I haven't read this text, but it and the comment attached to it may be relevant:

Does anyone know which tradition is this close to? Also, is there an English translation of the whole 200p. book?

Novomirsky was close to the French anarcho-syndicalists (especially Pouget) and belonged to the anti-intellectual wing of the Russian anarchist movement (he regarded the intelligentsia as an exploiting class).

There is no English translation of his book, which was republished in Russia in 2013.

Some time ago, I recall some of us had a conversation on the origins of the term "anarcho-syndicalist". It sees to be that Novomirsky was the first to use the phrase in the early 1900s.

Nothing more recent about innovation or consumption?

She isn't necessarily an anarchist, but the late Nobel laureate Elinor Ostrom has an immense body of work that basically dismisses the state/market dichotomy and both theoretically and empirically vindicates democratic management of commons. She is not anti-state or anti-market, it seems, but her work is something anarchists should grapple with.

(and by empirical vindication, I mean she actually spent her life studying democratically managed common resources in the real world)

Yeah Ostrom was an advocate of 'polycentrism', i.e. states and markets and self-governing commons all overlapping and coexisting. But she's definitely worth reading (if a bit dry at times, she's using some neoclassical/game theoretical economics to subvert its usual conclusions), and takes seriously the institutional requirements for commons regimes to succeed. If your anarcho senses bristle at 'institutions', this is basically the norms and rules of self-governing commons. They're summarised in this blog post, and some of them are pretty anarchish:

May I suggest:

The Economics of Anarchy

Anarchist Economics

Also section I of An Anarchist FAQ.

These may also be of interest:

Laying the foundations: Proudhon’s contribution to anarchist economics

Review: The Poverty of Philosophy by Karl Marx

Review: "Democracy at work: A cure for capitalism"

Also section C of An Anarchist FAQ as it critiques capitalist economics.

I'll leave it to others to say whether they count as "best" or not

Haven't given this a read, but it looks relevant: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/wayne-price-workers-self-directed-enterprises-a-revolutionary-program

There is an academic book about 400 pages long called Political Economy from Below: Economic Thought in Communitarian Anarchism, 1840-1914 published by Routledge
