some do, but not in the maxist, take take over the governent sort of way.

often anarchists (well the punk sort) want a decentralized local democratic process put in place ( like what the zapatistas are doing in the chiapas).

there are anarco-leninists and other anarchists who want anarchist parties so their methods differ. basically anarchy is like socialism/communism in the sense that is is not a unified movement - so to ask what do anarchists want is a very general question and the movement is very diverse.

im sure they want a better future and revolution is one way to attain that.

I think you'll find that they do, and not only that they will need it because if other Countries remain Capitalsit the Anarchists wouldn't stand a chance.

Yes, they all want a world revolution.

There aren't any Anarcho-Leninists, there are Platformist-Anarchists who are about as close to parties as they'll get.

this is thing about anarcism, if they ever actually got it world wide and everyone was TRULY free, everyone would be killing each other to gain a power that anarcism isnt about.

its a bit like a bee, it can be happy flying around annoying and scaring people, but if it ever actually stings someone its dies lol

"everyone would be killing each other to gain a power "

sigh, well i see that the general level of understanding hasnt changed since i was last around.

No kids, theory being that power, for what it's worth, is shared ammoungst the community, that there is an equal stake for all people.So if someone starts a'causeing a ruckus, everyone has a vested intrest in stoping them.
So no killing each other because in a real sense the power doesnt exist to seize and in another because 100 to a 1000 (i'm being generous) cant fight the world.

Unless they have really big bombs.

Actually, there are a small minority of anarchists who don't advocate revolution. Evolutionary anarchists believe that the current system can be gradually dismantled through building alternative institutions like cooperatives and intentional communities.
