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. Different types of socialism vary based on the role of markets and planning in resource allocation, on the structure of management in organizations, and from below or from above approaches, with some socialists favouring a party, state, or technocratic-driven approach.

Comunismo A La Tica
''Comunismo a la tica'' (also known in Spanish as ) is a variant of communist thought developed by the Costa Rican politician Manuel Mora Valverde, that he sought to promote a communism different from that imposed by Moscow and the Comintern, and that, on the contrary, was based, according to him, "on Costa Rican democratic, pacifist and institutional principles, traditions and values".

Mora, on the contrary, sought to carry out a socialist reform in Costa Rica through democratic elections and respecting certain Costa Rican traditions such as the Catholic religion. Likewise, according to Mora, his proposal for communism not only supports the existence of a democratic regime, but also defends a deepening of democracy with an economic content. Regarding the e ...

Communist Party
A communist party is a political party that seeks to realize the socio-economic goals of communism. The term ''communist party'' was popularized by the title of ''The Manifesto of the Communist Party'' (1848) by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. As a vanguard party, the communist party guides the political education and development of the working class (proletariat). As a ruling party, the communist party exercises power through the dictatorship of the proletariat. Vladimir Lenin developed the idea of the communist party as the revolutionary vanguard, when the socialist movement in Imperial Russia was divided into ideologically opposed factions, the Bolshevik faction ("of the majority") and the Menshevik faction ("of the minority"). To be politically effective, Lenin proposed a small vanguard party managed with democratic centralism which allowed centralized command of a disciplined cadre of professional revolutionaries. Once a policy was agreed upon, realizing political goals req ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
