January 5, 2016 Communism & Socialism:
Communism and Socialism are interchangeably used a lot, it 's mostly because they are similar. They both want to promote equality & to remove social classes from society. They also, have the same ideology. Communism and Socialism at first can sound very appealing with everyone in the community doing their duty and completing their responsibilities toward the same communal goal. However, some countries have tried it like China, Cuba, North Korea, and Vietnam, many if not most have failed in the past and or have become dictatorships, which made reforms in the countries nearly impossible to complete. Although,

Furthermore, if one discovers the amount of advancements that takes place in socialist and communist countries. One can see that there is very little advancements being accomplished because of how the workers expect their basic needs to be given by the community. This causes the required work to be achieved, but no more progress is obtained than what is needed. Which makes advancements be limited, since they are receiving what 's necessary, so that makes them see no point in moving into other activities. This is portrayed in the novel, Animal Farm, when snowball tries to assemble committees because he wants to tame the wild animals so, he can educate the animals by teaching them how to read and write. He also wants to help organize a new movement of advancing into multiple projects for each animal group but, the committees end up being unsuccessful. Like it exclaims in that," On the whole these projects were a failure" (Orwell 20). The attempt to tame the wild creatures, or instance, broke down almost immediately. They continued to behave very much as before, and when treated with generosity simply took advantage of it." The animals in animal farm don’t have inspirations to do anything else than to focus on harvesting so their need of having plentiful of food can be met.
Furthermore, socialism and communism can be easily comparable to each other when one examines their standards on equality. They both want to either eliminate or narrow down social
In Outliers, Gladwell attempts to answer, What makes some people successful while others cannot seem to realize their full potential? In U.S. society, people are considered successful when they have traits and characteristics: self-sacrifice, intelligence, talent. However, He says that the conditions and circumstances surrounding our lives are the significant influential factors that determine our success, not our inner ability or talent. These talents and abilities allow these people to be separate from society.
Hispanics who own a Lowrider have always been frowned upon within the United States. Lowriders have been around since the 1920’s and still live strong today. Lowriding is a lifestyle that privileged Hispanics are able to be apart of. It is a way for Hispanics to express their culture through their vehicles with custom paint jobs, lowered suspension, hydraulics, murals, and rims. Lowriders have been around since the 1920’s, but did not include hydraulics or custom rims until the 1950’s. There are 794 registered Lowrider car clubs with the National Lowrider Club Registry to date. (National Lowrider Club Registry) There is a large population of Hispanic gang members
There are many important elements of the book, The Scarlet Letter, but the five most important scenes start with Hester being set free from prison with Pearl. Then the second scene is Roger Chillingworth, Hester’s husband, coming to town to seek revenge. The next is the scene where the governor threatens to take Pearl away from Hester. The fourth is Hester removes the letter off her chest in the woods. So, the last scene is Dimmesdale reveals his sin on the scaffold to the entire town. All of these significant scenes in the book helped show the moral of the story, which is to be who you are, be true to yourself, and show it to others.
This is not doable without violence as the bourgeoisie are unlikely to give up power easily. On the other hand the evolutionary road think that the road to socialism is peaceful and will happen naturally without any sort of violent trigger. To sum socialists think that socialism inevitable no matter what road they support, where they differ is how socialism is achieved and the levels of violence required.
There is a vast difference between the economic systems of capitalism and socialism. While both are ways to govern a country’s market, they vary tremendously when looked at in depth. Capitalism is more effective and it encourages business growth and economic risk.
It is considered to be the transitional phase between the capitalism and communism. Thus, you would find all communists advocating for socialism because it lays the foundations for communism. It advocates an egalitarian society where everyone shares equal wealth and power. There is a considerable disagreement over how the distribution should take place. Hence, socialism can be said to be between extreme capitalism and extreme communism with it being nearer to communism.
Socialism and communism are ideological principles that have many distinguishing features in addition to many shared characteristics; however, it is complicated to distinguish the accurate differences between them, as various societies have tried embarking on the dissimilar nature of both systems in innumerable forms, thereby, making many zealous supporter of ideology with different agendas defining both systems in a biased term.
After the destruction of the American society, we must rebuild our government, taking extreme caution not to make the same mistakes as past societies. For the new government, our best choices are capitalism and communism. In theory, capitalism gives the opportunity to work hard in order to succeed, while communism makes everyone equal and therefore happy. However, both of these government systems have many flaws in practice. We all grew up in a mostly capitalist society that contained small elements of socialism, a government that focuses on giving everyone equal opportunities to succeed in life, but to a lesser extent of communism. However, socialism often morphs into communism in theory, and we will not include it as a starting government
The major differences between the two are their preferred styles of government, capitalism and communism. The major difference between the two is their view on economic production. In Communism, the central government controls all production and determines what goods the economy should produce, as well as the price of those goods. Meanwhile, Capitalism allows the market decide what goods should
More specifically, the main principle of Capitalism is a crane, and the main principle of Communism is a skyhook. Capitalism promotes the concept of equal opportunity, and feeds off of the notion that some people will, by design, be better than others. Communism, however, promotes a society in which all people are socio-economically equal no matter how hard they
Socialism is the underlying motivation behind communist movements in history. Socialists believe that it is unjust for a small amount of people to own the biggest portion of the wealth in society. This idea lead to the concept of a communist society, in which the existence of private property is eliminated in favor of government-owned property being shared among all it’s people. The government would provide jobs and care for all people equally. The idea was that through communism, there would be no social classes, thus eliminating alienation for any of the people in the society.
There are many different outcomes and problems that can occur as a result of the different systems. The benefits for communism are set up on a larger scale that takes time and effort, as for capitalism hard work produces quick gains. Since it is harder for people of communism to see direct results from their hard work, there can be a tendency of people doing less, but still receiving the same as everyone else. Thus, there needs to be some type of point system, which makes sure each person does enough work to show for the goods received. If the work is not done then something needs to be done, such as not giving them their share, jail time, or kicked out of the community, resulting in poorer living standards. Capitalism however, gives each individual a choice of the benefits they will receive from working hard or not. You still have the chance to be poor, but unlike communism you have the chance to become rich. In communism the hardest workers receive the same, but in capitalism the hardest workers reap the most rewards.
Therefore, they need to work harder to avoid being thrown away. Instead of questioning the unfair treatment, the animals rather think less and do more work. Common animals are naive working class, who are unable or unwilling to question authority, condemning themselves to suffer the full extent of the ruling class’s oppression.
What is Communism? Communism is the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the proletariat. It also can be defined as a conceptualized system of government in which resources and production facilities are the property of the entire society rather than individuals. In a communist society, labor is shared equally as well, and the benefits of labor are distributed according to need (Communism.4all 1). No one person shall be ranked higher than another and there is to be one person in charge of the society in a communism government. There are still to this day many countries that fall under the rule of communism and the ways they were transformed under communist rule is quite interesting.
In the novel Animal Farm by George Orwell, the character Old Major dreams of creating a utopian society in which his people, or animals in this case, are free from the oppression of a ruling class. In this society, the animals would work together to ensure that they have plenty to eat, experience leisure time, and could even enjoy the comforts of an electric windmill. These beautiful ideas serve as an allegory for the beliefs of philosopher Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles, as they hoped to eradicate the control of a ruling class, which would ultimately lead to a classless society. As Marx and Engels explore in their writing Capital Volume 1,the lack of social classes can yield economic freedom that allows individuals to be able to create commodities that are meaningful to them. When a person resides in a society free from social and economic restrictions, he or she has the autonomy to produce valuable and original works that may inspire others to also create valuable products.
