Freedom of association
Mutualist anarchism is concerned with [[Reciprocity (cultural anthropology)|reciprocity]], [[Freedom of association|free association]], voluntary contract, federation and credit and currency reform. Many mutualists believe a market without [[government intervention]] drives prices down to labor-costs, eliminating profit, rent and interest according to the [[labor theory of value]]. Firms would be forced to compete over workers just as workers compete over firms, raising wages.
