The Rally for a Free Society (French reformed: Rassemblement pour un societé libre), abbreviated RFS (RSL), is a Gylian political party, part of the Non-inscrits bloc.
It is an anarchist formation advocating market anarchism.
History
The RFS was founded in 1982, by a group of People Power-Citizens' Movement members who were more sympathetic to market anarchism. It was established as an market anarchist formation in the tradition of Lucretia Pecunia Mercator, and became a sister party to the Union of Independents and Free and Voluntaryist Union.
It entered Parliament in the 1985 federal election, after promising performances in local elections. It provided outside support to the Filomena Pinheiro government.
The party benefited from the non-inscrits' breakthrough in the 1990s, increasing its first preference vote and seats. It took an ambiguous position towards the Mathilde Vieira government, but supported the Decleyre Summit and creation of the Social Partnership Program.
It gained seats in the 2020 federal election after Æþurheim's civil war became an election issue, and provides outside support to the Lena Haidynraix government.
Ideology
The RFS is an anarchist formation. It mainly advocates market anarchism and panarchy. It envisions a decentralised stateless society where all forms of government and economic organisation are practiced and freely chosen by individuals.
Although its advocacy of market anarchism makes it conventionally classified as right anarchist, its championing of organised labour and cooperatives and opposition to big business and monopolies keep it firmly on the left-wing by ordinary standards.
In the market anarchist tradition, the party cultivates an image of androgynous, decadent glamour inspired by Weimar culture, and enjoys fame as a harmlessly eccentric presence in mainstream politics.
Symbols
The RFS uses the colour turquoise as its official colour.
Popular support
The RFS is generally a small presence in federal elections, with somewhat better performances in local elections.
