«O banqueiro anarquista» is the philosophical tale by Fernando Pessoa, published by Nova Ática in paperback (78 pages, in Portuguese).
A wealthy banker argues, in a reasoned dialogue, that his fortune is the only coherent way to practice anarchism: only those who possess money can escape the social conventions that subordinate them. The plea becomes a satire on logic, society, and human contradictions.
The text first appeared in May 1922 in issue 1 of the magazine Contemporânea.
