Morphology

voluntaryist = voluntary (transparent) = voluntary + ist

Formed by adding the agent/ideological suffix '-ist' to the adjective 'voluntary', yielding 'supporter of voluntaryism' which follows regular English derivation.

Etymology

Voluntaryist comes from voluntary meaning 'by choice' and the ending -ist meaning 'one who', the same root you see in volunteer. So a voluntaryist approach is about using free, agreed actions and not government force.
