In answer to your question, "What makes you think another form of government would arise if we didn't have any government? A few centuries ago, quite a few people would believe another form of slavery would arise if we didn't have slavery."
Hmm, kind of a false equivalency. Slavery has a definition that is rather rigid involving the trafficking of people against their will. While government has a much more open definition of being the way people are managed through disciplinary practices and economic models. My point is that even if you could magic away the current government something would arise even it is was just basic tribal governance.
Thaq wants Ack's apple.
Thaq is bigger than Ack so Thaq takes Ack's apple.
Ack doesn't like that so Ack gets together with Gack to make sure they have enough force to prevent more apple stealing.
Poof the first whiff of government.
No, it isn't an airtight proof or anything just a rudimentary thought on how governments are formed. People bump into factors of production then protect them, or freely share them, whatever these are all distribution models and protecting those factors of production are disciplinary measures that must needs arise from the existence of egos and factors of production.
What do you mean by anarchy?
Do you mean freedom from government?
How could the state of freedom from government be maintained?
If I missed the mark please elucidate (In English).
How would anarchy handle externalities from production?
How would anarchy prevent strong gangs (A form of government) from forming?
