To call this organization an anarchy is a misstatement, though police and judicial agencies across the planet certainly wish it were the case, it would make repressing the Italian criminals far easier.
To call any organization of humans a functional and egalitarian anarchy is probably futile. I am still waiting for an exemplar from RO. Not holding my breath, however.
On a side note, it is way past time for the lumpenbourgeoisie of Latin America to stop leaning on the convenient imperialism of the United States which was not yet a nation when the white Spanish began their exploitation of black African slave descendents and indigenous people in the 16th C and which continues to this day. Yes, Bolivar set out to free the Africans but then like his recently deceased protege set himself up as "president for life." Latin America has had every opportunity to clean up its own dirty house but poverty and racism continue at nearly the same old pace. Clearly, power disparity is a welcome commodity in Latin America as it is in the North except you have the advantage to play the victim card. Boo hoo.
LOL. No doubt your imperialistic and Eurocentric ambitions include cleaning up the mess the ignorant brown savages to your south made of the fine corporate opportunities here. Imperialistic Yankee misadventures in Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador, Columbia, Venezuela, Cuba, Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Panama, Honduras, and Chile certainly won't deter a advocate of "American" exceptionalism like yourself, any more than it deterred yiur European mentors a century ago.
But it is more interesting you worry about the racism here, myself being a mixture of Spanish, German, Maya, Fillipino, East African, Jewish, Moorish Muslim (both from converios) at least and this is typical of the population. And yes all slaves were deemed free men and women for all time as the result of our revolt against the Spanish, a lesson your founding fathers might have learned.
Perhaps you would be better served by using your resources to clean up your own nation, than to steal from us. Your record indicates you do poorly at the latterr, in spite of your best efforts.
(BTW if you do not wish the irony meters to explode, you might look up the definition of lumpen bourgeoisie before you use the term, we generally use it as a term of contempt for a "wannabee" local European.

Lumpenbourgeoisie is a term most often attributed to Andre Gunder Frank in 1972 to describe a type of a middle class and upper class (merchants, lawyers, industrialists, etc.; one that has little collective self-awareness or economic base and who supports the colonial masters. - Wiki
It rather accurately describes the United States version as well, most who pretend they are "leftest" while parroting the Eurocentric imperialistic line. Get a mirror, you can inspect one with it.
And good luck with your Latin American "backyard," your future adventures here will be even more painful and profitless then the last century of missteps have been.
