I suspect that your anarcho-communitarian could be compatible with
being labeled a libertarian anarchist.
As David Friedman notes more eloquently than I can ("Love Is Not
Enough" in Pournelle's The Survival of Freedom), if you want
something I have, you can obtain it by love (I care for you or your
goals), trade, or force.
A minarchist (small-government libertarian) cedes the necessity of
government but wants it (i.e., the threat or use of force) kept to an
irreducible minimum. A libertarian anarchist rejects the initiation
of force or fraud altogether.
An anarcho-capitalist libertarian (AnCap) says love is fine where it
works, but trade works more often, so let's focus on that.
How would you describe anarcho-communitarian?
