The Non-Aggression Principle (NAP), also called the Non-Aggression Axiom, the non-coercion principle, the non-initiation of force and the zero aggression principle, is a concept in which "aggression" – defined as initiating or threatening any forceful interference with either an individual or their property,[note 1] or agreements (contracts) – is illegitimate and should be prohibited.[1][2] Interpretations of the NAP vary, particularly concerning issues like intellectual property, force, and abortion.
The Non-Aggression Principle is considered by some to be a defining principle of libertarianism in the United States[3] and is also a prominent idea in anarcho-capitalism, voluntaryism, and minarchism.[4][5][6][7][non-primary source needed]
