How has Socialism been defined?

Socialism is a range of economic and social systems characterized by social owenership and democratic control of the means of production, as well as the political ideologies, theories, and movements that aim at their establishment. Social ownership may refer to forms of public, collective or cooperative ownership; to citizen ownership of equality; or to any combination of these. Although there have been many varieties of socialism and there has not been a single definition encapsulating all of them, social ownership is the common element shared by its various forms.

Getting started: Socialist Political movement

Instructions: Read the text to do the activities suggested.

The socialist political movement includes a diverse array of political philosophies that originated amid the revolutionary movement of the mid-to-late 1700s and of a general concern for the social problems that were associated with capitalism. In addition to the debate over markets and planning, the varieties of socialism differ in their form of social ownership, how management is to be organized within productive institutions, and the role of the state in constructing socialism.

Social politics have been both centralist and decentralized; internationalist and nationalist in orientation; organized through political parties and opposed to party politics; at times overlapping with trade unions and at other times independent of, and critical of, unions; and present in both industrialized and developing countries.
