Socialism: Charting a Path to Equity and Justice
About this ebook
As opposed to private ownership of the means of production, socialism is a political and economic concept that encompasses a wide range of economic and social systems. Socialism is distinguished by the existence of social ownership of these means of production. The economic, political, and social theories and movements that are involved with the implementation of such systems are described in this article. The concept of social ownership can be expressed in a number of different ways, including public, community, collective, cooperative, or private ownership. The numerous different forms of socialism cannot be summed up by a single description, but the feature that is shared by all of them is social ownership. Historically speaking, socialism has been considered to be on the left-wing of the political spectrum. The form of management in companies, the role that markets and planning play in resource allocation, and the various approaches that come from below or from above are all factors that contribute to the development of different types of socialism. While there are socialists who support a party, state, or technocratic-driven strategy, there are also socialists who disagree on whether or not the government is the appropriate organization to bring about change.
