Communist Party Of Chile Politicians
Communism (from Latin la, communis, lit=common, universal, label=none) is a far-left sociopolitical, philosophical, and economic ideology and current within the socialist movement whose goal is the establishment of a communist society, a socioeconomic order centered around common ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange which allocates products to everyone in the society.: "One widespread distinction was that socialism socialised production only while communism socialised production and consumption." Communist society also involves the absence of private property, social classes, money, and the state. Communists often seek a voluntary state of self-governance, but disagree on the means to this end. This reflects a distinction between a more libertarian approach of communization, revolutionary spontaneity, and workers' self-management, and a more vanguardist or communist party-driven approach through the development of a constitutional socialist st ...

Anti-corporate Activists
Anti-corporate activism refers to the idea of activism that is directed against the private sector, and specifically against larger corporations. It stems from the idea that the activities and impacts of big business are detrimental to the public good and democratic process, and is often a tool to reframe corporate activities in the public eye. Disagreements with corporations Activists argue that corporate globalization has caused a displacement in the shift from an industrial economy to one where international trade and globalization has spurred financial deregulation. As an increasing number of economies have embraced a free-market approach, regulation has been rolled back and corporations have grown in power and autonomy. Opponents of corporate globalization believe that the government needs greater powers to control the market, that income inequality is rising, and that corporations have gained too much power. Typically coming from the political left, activists again ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Its founder was the lawyer, politician and law professor Jaime Guzmán, a civilian allied with Augusto Pinochet. Guzmán was a senator from 1990 until his murder by communist guerrillas on April 1, 1991.
