| abstract | - The name Eclecticism comes from the word Eclectic, due to the ideology's incorporation and appropriation of a diverse range of ideas, principles and philosophies, and also reflects the ideology's accepting stance and advocacy of collectivism. The symbol most commonly associated with Eclecticism is the Encircled Tree, which represents the many influences of Eclecticism. Eclecticism takes it's main influences from anarchism, pacifism, direct democracy, bohemianism and collectivism, supporting the creation of a society in which each and every individual can express themselves, govern themselves, and ultimately, be themselves. A major tenet of Eclecticism is E-democracy, utilising the internet and communication technologies as a means for the decision making process, creating a universally accessible system where individuals can propose, debate and vote on policies, proposals and initiatives. The use of e-democracy, allows large populations to become involved in the governing process, circumventing people becoming left out of the process. Economically, Eclecticism advocates post-capitalist and post-scarcity system established by the destruction of the market from the bottom-up, rather than top-down, through the use of the internet to circumvent the market's reliance on scarcity by providing abundant information for free. Eclecticism subscribes to the principle that all information is to be free and universally available. Eclecticism advocates the idea of a collective, where resources and responsibilities are shared between members without the need for a managerial hierarchy resulting in self-management.
