Socialism
Socialism is a left-wing economic philosophy and movement encompassing a range of economic systems characterized by the dominance of social ownership of the means of production as opposed to private ownership. As a term, it describes the economic, political and social theories and movements associated with the implementation of such systems. Social ownership can be state/public, community, collective, cooperative, or employee. While no single definition encapsulates the many types of socialism, social ownership is the one common element.

Oğuzhan Müftüoğlu
Oğuzhan is a common masculine Turkish given name. "Oğuzhan" is composed of two words, "Oğuz" and "han"; Oğuz is a given name, while "han" means literally " khan". Thus, "Oğuzhan" means "Oğuz khan". The modern name derives from the name and title of Oghuz Khagan, a legendary Turkic leader. There are various theories on the meaning of "Oğuz". The most prominent explanation is that it is composed of "ok" and "z". In modern Turkish as well as Proto-Turkic, "ok" means "arrow". However, in Proto-Turkic, "ok" also means "clan" or "nation". Again, only in Proto-Turkic, "-z" is the plural suffix. Therefore "okz" means "clans", "nations", or "arrows" in Proto-Turkic. In modern Turkish, "-z" is not the plural suffix anymore, having been replaced with "-lar" and "-ler". "Oğuz" was used both as given names and as names of some of the Turkish clans. Oghuz Turks are the southwestern branch of Turkish clan system. "Gökoğuz" was a group of Oghuz Turks who migrated to northwest and ...
