Omniarchy

Omniarchy is the rule of all over all. It is essentially chaos in which any person is permitted to commit aggression against any other person. It is distinct from anarchy, which simply means the absence of the state and can encompass a social order in which people are protected from aggression. It has been noted that the Joker in The Dark Knight favors omniarchy.
