	In a letter to his son, Christopher, Tolkien states that his political views lean to [[Anarchism]] ("''philosophically understood, meaning abolition of control, not whiskered men with bombs''") or to "''unconstitutional''" [[Monarchy]]. In the same letter, he declares: "''I would arrest anybody who uses the word State (in any sense other than the inanimate realm of England and its inhabitants, a thing that has neither power, rights nor mind); and after a chance of recantation, execute them if they remained obstinate! If we could get back to personal names, it would do a lot of good. Government is an abstract noun meaning the an and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people''".<ref>The Letters of J.R.R.
