Libertarians generally want a minimal state (for things like courts, police, national defense), while anarchists want to eliminate the state entirely. There are also different kinds of anarchists—some are anti-capitalist, while others (like anarcho-capitalists) overlap more with libertarian ideas. linkfedilink
