Description (From nationalanarchism.com)

National Anarchism is a radical, anti-capitalist, anti-Marxist, anti-statist, political and cultural ideology which emphasizes ethnic tribalism. As a prelude to an anticipated racial civil war and a collapse of the capitalist system, National-Anarchists seek to establish autonomous villages for völkisch communities, which have seceded from the state's economy and are no-go areas for unwelcomed ethnic groups and state authorities.

(From Wikipedia.org)

The term National Anarchism dates back as far as the 1920s. [1] However, it has been primarily redefined and popularized since the 1990s by British  author Troy Southgate  to promote a synthesis of ideas from the Conservative Revolutionary movement ,Traditionalist SchoolThird PositionismNouvelle Droite , and various anarchist schools of thought . [3] National-Anarchists therefore argue they hold a syncretic political  or metapolitical  stance that is "beyond left and right" because the conventional left–right political spectrum  is obsolete and should be replaced with a centralistdecentralist  paradigm. [4]

The few scholars who have studied National-Anarchism counter that it represents a further evolution in the thinking of the radical right  rather than an entirely new dimension. [5] [6] [7] National-Anarchism has elicited skepticism and outright hostility from both left- and right-wing critics. The former accuse National-Anarchists of misappropriating a sophisticated post-left-wing anarchist  critique of problems with the modern world  only to offer ethnic and racial separatism  as the solution, while the latter argue they want the militant chic  of calling themselves anarchists without the historical and philosophical baggage that accompanies such a claim.

Highly nationalist anarchism... Is it just me, or does that seem like a very, very bad idea?

Probably the worst ideology in existence. Just think about it. Tribes living in villages without any contact with each other. Would lead us back to the stone age I think.

They would have contact to each other, it would be in the best interest of all the tribes to stay in contact to form alliances and trade hubs, they talk about that in the manifesto.

Yes it IS a very bad idea in theory, and I dread the idea of seeing it in practice. I see it more as the National Bolshevism of Anarchism, much worse than AYNarcho-Capitalism and a attempt by Neo-Nazis to hijack and twist the Anti-Statist stance of anarchism for their own benefit.
