I don’t need to answer at length here, because the “Antistate” channel did it for me in a post titled “Why Panarchy is Ancap”. In general, this is the reason why I, being an ancap, write quite a lot about panarchy.
To what is stated in the article, I can only add the following consideration. Panarchy as a system where everyone is under their own governments, but governments compete for citizens, and entry and exit are free, is an unstable state of society. Quite quickly, a significant number of people will accumulate who have not entered into client agreements with any governments at all. They cannot be forced to go under someone’s wing; all that remains is to try to sell them some services. Thus, panarchy will gradually become pure ancap for many, where absolutely all goods and services are offered on a free competitive market. I would say that this could lead to the development of government service aggregators, where everyone can pick an option for themselves, or perhaps do without it entirely.
