Max Stirner's economic views

[Smash Monogamy]

What kind of economic system did he support? How did he view capitalism and property?

In ABC's of Anarchism I think Berkman lumped Stirner with 'mutualists' and said he supported private property.

Stirner mentioned in "The Ego and It's Own", that he opposed communism because he believed that the individual can only be free if, through economic strength, he or she could seize property and make money from it. Although he didn't say "I'm a Mutualist", he had idea's similar to it.

I think perhaps you have misunderstood Stirner. If be interested in you providing the sector where you read that. Also, the way he conceived of property was different and he also despised the economy etc... I mean, there are a lot of reasons why what you're saying here seems wrong to me.

Btw Stirner did not support private property.

Yes, I remember this. However to readers of Stirner that is in no way a support of markets, the economy, capitalism, etc...
