Le créateur de l'expression est [[Fernando Tarrida del Marmol]], qui l'utilisa en Novembre 1889, à Barcelone. Il dirigea ses commentaires envers les anarchistes communistes et collectivistes, qui à cet époque, en Espagne, tenaient un intense débat sur les mérites des 2 théories. L'''anarchisme sans adjectif'' était une tentative de montrer une plus grande tolérance entre les tendances libertaires et d'être clair que les anarchistes ne devraient pas imposer de plan économique préconçu à qui que ce soit, même dans la théorie.  Anarchists without adjectives tended either to reject all particular anarchist economic models as faulty, or take a pluralist position of embracing them all to a limited degree in order that they may keep one another in check.  Regardless, to these anarchists the economic preferences are considered to be of "secondary importance" to abolishing all authority, with free experimentation the one rule of a free society.

The theoretical perspective known as "anarquismo sin adjetivos" was one of the by-products of an intense debate within the movement of anarchism itself. The roots of the argument can be found in the development of [[anarcho-communism]] after [[Bakunin]]'s death in [[1876]]. While not entirely dissimilar to [[collectivist anarchism]] (as can be seen from [[James Guillaume]]'s famous work "On Building the New Social Order" within Bakunin on Anarchism, the collectivists did see their economic system evolving into free communism), Communist Anarchists developed, deepened and enriched Bakunin's work just as Bakunin had developed, deepened and enriched [[Pierre-Joseph Proudhon|Proudhon]]'s. Communist Anarchism was associated with such anarchists as [[Élisée Reclus]], [[Carlo Cafiero]], [[Errico Malatesta]] and (most famously) [[Peter Kropotkin]].

Anarcho-communist ideas replaced Collectivist Anarchism as the main anarchist tendency in Europe, except in Spain. Here the major issue was not the question of communism (although for [[Ricardo Mella]] this played a part) but a question of the modification of strategy and tactics implied by Communist Anarchism. At this time (the 1880s), the anarcho-communists stressed local cells of anarchist militants, generally opposed trade unionism as were characterized by a degree of anti-organisation. Unsurprisingly, such a change in strategy and tactics came in for a lot of discussion from the Spanish Collectivists who strongly supported [[working class]] organisation and struggle.

Les idées anarcho-communiste remplacèrent le [[Collectivisme anarchiste]] au titre de tendance anarchiste la plus populaire en Europe, excepté en Espagne. Here the major issue was not the question of communism (although for [[Ricardo Mella]] this played a part) but a question of the modification of strategy and tactics implied by Communist Anarchism. À cette époque (les années 1880s), the anarcho-communists stressed local cells of anarchist militants, generally opposed trade unionism as were characterized by a degree of anti-organisation. Unsurprisingly, such a change in strategy and tactics came in for a lot of discussion from the Spanish Collectivists who strongly supported [[working class]] organisation and struggle.  
  
This conflict soon spread outside of Spain and the discussion found its way into the pages of La Revolte in Paris. This provoked many anarchists to agree with Malatesta's argument that "[i]t is not right for us, to say the least, to fall into strife over mere hypotheses." [quoted by Max Nettlau, A Short History of Anarchism, pp. 198-9] Over time, most anarchists agreed (to use Nettlau's words) that "we cannot foresee the economic development of the future" [Op. Cit., p. 201] and so started to stress what they had in common, rather than the different visions of how a free society would operate.  As time progressed, most anarcho-communists saw that ignoring the [[labour movement]] ensured that their ideas did not reach the working class while most anarcho-communists stressed their commitment to communist ideals and their arrival sooner, rather than later, after a revolution.

Similarly, in the United States, there was an intense debate at the same time between Individualist and Communist anarchists. There, [[Benjamin Tucker]] was arguing that anarcho-communists were not anarchists while [[Johann Most]] was saying similar things about Tucker's ideas.  Just as people like Mella and Tarrida put forward the idea of tolerance between anarchist groups, so anarchists like [[Voltairine de Cleyre]] "came to label herself simply 'Anarchist,' and called like Malatesta for an 'Anarchism without Adjectives,' since in the absence of government many different experiments would probably be tried in various localities in order to determine the most appropriate form." [Peter Marshall, Demanding the Impossible, p. 393]
