What are they?

• Another thread mentioned anarchocapitalism, there are others as well...
• Minimal state - limited to law enforcement
• Extention to public goods i.e. roads, infrastructure and certain services
• Bureaucratic management of public, economic and even private life 
• State controlling means of production
• Different roles, rights and duties assigned to specific persons (i.e. feudalism, caste system, guilds)
• Communitarian approaches

There are certainly intermediate options as well and people can look at it from different angles using other categories as well.
