COMMUNISM
Capitalism:An economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit.
Socialism:A political and economic system in which production (factories), distribution, and exchange should be controlled (often by a government).
Communism:A political and economic theory by Karl Marx, advocating class struggle and leading to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs. (Classless society)
COMMUNISM in the 1900s• Because of the influence of the Socialist Revolution in
Russia in 1917, many leaders claimed to be socialist, when really they were not. (they had some features of socialism, but not many)
• These leaders include…– Josef Stalin – the dictator of the USSR– Mao Zedong – the chairman of Communist China– Fidel Castro – the President of Cuba
