Essay on Communism is Idealistic and Unrealistic
My main understanding of Communism is that it's an ideal society that is unrealistic for humans to maintain. It is a system of social organization
where everything and everyone is equal. The ideology of communism came out of the mind of Karl Marx. He is said to be the father of Communism
and it was his belief that private property was the cause of poverty and therefore came to settle on the idea that no one person should have control over
their own production of goods, land ownership, or the management of funds.
In this system, major resources and means of production are owned by the community rather than by individuals. It's a society without money, without
a state, without property and without social classes. All people would...show more content...
What also injected fear into every level of the American society as well as all government levels was McCarthy's Red Scare, where Senator Joseph
McCarthy made a tremendous amount of accusations towards Communists that neither the police nor the government could keep up with verifying.
The people he accused were "blacklisted", which meant they were assumed to be conversing with the enemy.
Democratic governments depleted as poor conditions ran across the world, furthermore, the Great Depression forced many people to be frustrated with
a democracy. They wanted change and a new era and a quick way out of the economic problems that they faced. This would be accomplished with the
new governments of Nazism, Fascism, and Communism. These new governments all seem rather similar; however have very different views regarding
how society should be. Communism is based on common ownership and production in which the state operates under a one party system. While
Nazism or, National Socialism, has a combination of various theologies and philosophies that centered on nationalism, and does not approve of
Communism.
During the Great Depression, the stock market tanked and thousands of people in the United States lost their jobs. The tranquil, calm minds of the

Communism Essay
I Introduction
Communism: A theory and system of social and political organization that was a major force in world politics for much of the 20th century. As a
political movement, communism sought to overthrow capitalism through a workers' revolution and establish a system in which property is owned by
the community as a whole rather than by individuals. In theory, communism would create a classless society of abundance and freedom, in which all
people enjoy equal social and economic status. In practice, communist regimes have taken the form of coercive, authoritarian governments that cared
little for the plight of the working class and sought above all else to preserve their own...show more content...
Lenin's successor, Joseph Stalin, turned the Soviet Union into a dictatorship based on total state control of the economy and the suppression of any
form of opposition. As a result of Lenin's and Stalin's policies, many people came to associate the term communism with undemocratic or totalitarian
governments that claimed allegiance to Marxist–Leninist ideals. The term Marxism–Leninism refers to Marx's theories as amended and put into practice
by Lenin.
After World War II (1939
–1945), regimes calling themselves communist took power in China, Eastern Europe, and other regions. The spread of
communism marked the beginning of the Cold War, in which the Soviet Union and the United States, and their respective allies, competed for political
and military supremacy. By the early 1980s, almost one–third of the world's population lived under communist regimes. These regimes shared certain
basic features: an embrace of Marxism–Leninism, a rejection of private property and capitalism, state domination of economic activity, and absolute
control of the government by one party, the communist party. The party's influence in society was pervasive and often repressive. It controlled and
censored the mass media, restricted religious worship, and silenced political dissent.

Communism in China Essays
Communism is a system of government, a political ideology that rejects private ownership and promotes a classless, stateless society based on
common ownership of all property and the means of production, where by all work is shared and all proceeds are commonly owned. Communism is
practised in China, North Korea, Vietnam, Laos and Cuba. However most of the world's communist governments have been disbanded since the end
of World War II. Soon after the Japanese surrendered at the end of World War II, Communist forces began a war against theKuomintang in China. The
Communists gradually gained control of the country and on the 1st October, 1949, Mao Zedong announced the victory of the Communist party and the

The arrival of Chiang's armies into many rural areas often indicated theft, rape, and murders to common villagers, while Mao's armies were more
educated and trained to protect the needs of the peasants in order to win their support. Where the landlords and peasants initially supported the
Guomindang, and students and intellectuals looked to the Nationalists for salvation, both sections of the community began to embrace and support the
communist ideals.
As public services such as health and education suffered under the GMD and living conditions in rural areas worsened, civilians rapidly joined the
Communist party. Many soldiers who fought for the Nationals changed sides and began fighting for communism. The essential focus of Mao's
revolution revolved solely around the peasants who made up 85% of the population. His new land reforms meant taking land from rich landlords and
dividing it amongst poorer peasants. Mao also introduced national health care as 95% of individuals in China had never seen a doctor
The PLA rapidly expanded with more peasants joining. In 1947 the Communists captured their new capital, Yan'an and in 1948 they attacked the GMD

GMD and Communists) to form a joint government in order to fight Japan– America's enemy. They finally cut off all aid to the GMD troops

Essay on Communism
"Communism"
What is Communism? Communism is the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the proletariat. It also can be defined as a conceptualized
system of government in which resources and production facilities are the property of the entire society rather than individuals. In a communist society,
labor is shared equally as well, and the benefits of labor are distributed according to need (Communism.4all 1). No one person shall be ranked higher
than another and there is to be one person in charge of the society in a communism government. There are still to this day many countries that fall under

This division of labor was less time consuming and the worker could make more and a less amount of time. The invention of these machines reduced
the amount of time that the workers had to spend on making the items themselves. This in turn lessened the work for because soon there would be no
need for the workers due to the machines. But, at the same time, they also fell in to the hands of big capitalists, and their workers were deprived of
whatever independence remained to them (Marxists 3).
Communism is viewed also by a religious standpoint. To explain the kind of communism that the early church practiced it is necessary to understand
the sense of brotherhood that the members of the Church had toward each other. It was not, to be sure, an arbitrary communism and bears no relation
to communists of today, but the principal on which it was based was communistic. They held jobs, bought and sold and made profit of their earnings,
much like you would see in an ideal social democracy (Latter Rain 1).
What the Jerusalem church practiced was a voluntary and democratic social communism. The representation of communism in the modern world is

This is the theory of a free market, based on supply and demand to take care of the consumer welfare. Capitalism gives people the freedom to do as
they wish, and allows them the opportunities to work to gain great wealth, or to just survive in the society. While communism sets direct demands on
the work you do and what you need to produce, so others can benefit as well as you from your hard work.
There are many different outcomes and problems that can occur as a result of the different systems. The benefits for communism are set up on a
larger scale that takes time and effort, as for capitalism hard work produces quick gains. Since it is harder for people of communism to see direct
results from their hard work, there can be a tendency of people doing less, but still receiving the same as everyone else. Thus, there needs to be some
type of point system, which makes sure each person does enough work to show for the goods received. If the work is not done then something needs to
be done, such as not giving them their share, jail time, or kicked out of the community, resulting in poorer living standards. Capitalism however, gives
each individual a choice of the benefits they will receive from working hard or not. You still have the chance to be poor, but unlike communism you
have the chance to become rich. In communism the hardest workers receive the same, but in capitalism the hardest workers reap the most rewards.

In the beginning Communism seemed to the people of Russia as a utopian ideal. The promise of the elimination of classes, of guaranteed employment,
"The creation of a comprehensive social security and welfare system for all citizens that would end the misery of workers once and for

first suppress any dissent or protest. Through coercive tactics this new government seized power and in 1917 Lenin came to power. Under his

Lenin believed that Trotsky was the best suitable to take the Communist party to the next level. Trotsky was not all that popular among party members
though and Stalin was in a position as Gen Sek, or General Secretary, to place his people in powerful positions throughout the party. Also, Stalin
worked extremely hard at achieving power whereas Trotsky was rather lazy. Because of these reasons along with Stalin's "zero tolerance"
attitude towards everyone, he was able to seize control.
Once in control, Stalin's first major achievements were the Five Year Plans for industry. Russia had not yet had theirindustrial revolution and were far
behind the other powers of the world. The first Five Year Plan worked as far as industrial output was concerned, but it was at much cost to the
people of Russia. Once the Five Year Plans started to roll, Stalin decided to make some agricultural changes to support the industrialization. In April,
1928, Stalin presented the draft of a new land law. Although the draft failed to become a law, it showed a couple of Stalin's objectives. One was the
rapid and forcible collectivization of the peasants in order to industrialize the country quickly. The other was the liquidation of the kulaks as a class.
Kulaks were seen as industrious or prosperous peasants who were not enthusiastic about the policies of the communist party.
Collectivization was the forcible consolidation of individual peasant farms into

Marx on the other hand wanted to go for philosophy. He switched to Berlin University after his first year so that he could get a better education.
Marx disappointed his father by not studying law and told his father "I did not read works on jurisprudence primarily to become a lawyer, but rather
to find metaphysical answers." (Padover 49). Marx got a doctorate in philosophy from Berlin with financial help from his mom whom was not well
off financially and lived in a lower–middle class neighborhood. In 1842 Karl Marx started writing for a liberal democratic newspaper called
Rheinische Zietung in Cologne, and at the end of 1842 Marx became the editor for the paper (Padover 29). In the beginning of 1843 Marx was told
by the ministry that at the end of the quarter the paper must cease publication, causing Karl to resign immediately. The summer of 1843 before
heading to Paris to devote his time to studying political economy and the history of the great French Revolution, he married the daughter of Privey
Councillor Von Westphalen in trier named Jenny Von Westphalen. Marx liked to speak his mind in writings, which caused him to be expelled from
France by Guizot in 1845 (Carver 208) . Upon leaving France he went to Brussels and stayed there, pursuing the same studies, until the outbreak of

different ways. Each has distinct aspects that make it what it is. In communism, the government runs everything and there are no social classes. The
government in capitalism doesn't interfere with any businesses and lets the citizens own and operate them. Socialism is basically a mixture of the two

It is the economic system used by a government that regulates only certain businesses for the welfare of the citizens. The government normally only
regulates housing, education, food, and medical issues. Since that is all the government regulates, private citizens are allowed to own businesses.
However, the income of these businesses is controlled thru taxes. The strength of socialism is that the government has more control over businesses
and can regulate what happens in them. The weakness is that people interested in owning a business in the area of housing, education, food, or medical
issues cannot. All the three economic systems are different in unique ways. The most effective out of the three economic systems is capitalism. It is the
most effective for a few reasons. First, people are allowed to own any type of business they want. In socialism they can't own a variety of businesses
because the government runs them. In communism, no one can own a business because the government owns everything. If people are allowed to own
any type of business that they want and keep the profits of the business, they will want to work harder then they would under communism or socialism.
In addition, just because the government doesn't interfere with businesses a lot doesn't mean that the businesses aren't strong. The government still

On June 12, 1987, United States President Ronald Regan issued a speech while at the Berlin Wall to Mikhail Gorbachev, then the general Secretary of

liberalization, come here to this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" (Wikipedia, 2011)
Later, in the fall of 1989, civilians started chipping away at the wall. The growing desire for personal rights, democratic government, and a better way
of life lead to the break up of the Eastern bloc. Citizens were tired of oppression, hunger, censorship, and in essence, life itself being a hardship.
Protestors gathered and a peaceful revolution had started to tear down the wall. By the beginning of 1990, the wall was decimated with a few watch
towers standing as memorials to the fallen that tried to escape to freedom in the West. In December of 1991, the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc

Communism And Its Impact On Society
Communism is perhaps one of the most controversial political ideas in society. When most people think of communism, most likely the first thing
that they will think of is Russia and the Soviets. Yes, the Soviets did have a vast part of the developing of communist ideas, but there is a lot more to
that. Since Karl Marx and his colleague Friedrich Engels first came up with the ideas of communism, it has grown to be one of the most frequent topics
in world history. Communism has died down since its peak in the Fifties and Sixties after World War II, but the impact will be marked in history
books forever. Now what exactly is this complex political idea? Communism describes a society in which every member owns their resources and
wealth and products are equally distributed to every citizen in a society (Thompson 297). Basically, everyone in a communist society is at an equal
economic class, there is no first, second, and third class families as in democracy. Many people also mix up a similar idea known as socialism, and
often use their ideas in interchanging ways. Communism is an extreme version of socialism that refers to an economic and political system ("The
Basics of..."). Socialism is, however, just an economic system. Both socialism and communism have their own ideas, but are relatively similar.

Marx understanding of society shift into modernism lead to develop a form of communism that would come to be known as Marxism, communism is
the economic thought of Marxism. Marx understands that Modernism calls for society to embrace equality for the betterment of society. Part of the
problem with Capitalism comes from its exploitation of the working class; Marx understands this problem to be a vein of Pre–modernism and not a
pillar of Modernism. Marx calls for the working class to rise up over their bourgeoisie oppressors and seize the equality that rightfully belongs to
them. "Society as a whole is more and more splitting up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other – bourgeoisie
and proletariat. (Communist pg. 9)" If society wants to embrace modernism, then society needs to shift its focus from fighting each other and one
exploiting another to a classless society. Marx highly criticizes the bourgeoisie in The Communist Manifesto, and this stems from the problems they
created for themselves and for the rest of society. In their attempt to gain more power, land, and resources, their material conditions, upon the
prominence which their families had been formed, were dissipating due to the lack of foresight and selfish greed. If the Bourgeoisie continues to

food. The system had to be used because the continuous war disrupted normal economic means and relations. Warcommunism was enforced by the
Supreme Economic Council, known as the Vesenkha. Lenin said that "the confiscation of surpluses from the peasants was a measure with which we

A black market emerged in Russia with bartering being the main medium of exchange. Wages were paid with goods rather than money. Coal
production dramatically decreased, and heavy industry had fallen to output levels of 20%. In addition, the grain harvest also decreased in half,
from 80.1 million tons in 1913 to 46.5 million tons in 1920. The experience of ordinary Russians declined during the war communism period.
Workers were migrating from the cities to the countryside, where the chances to feed themselves were higher. This reduced the possibility of
exchange of industrial goods for foods and worsened the population in urban areas. For example, between 1918 and 1920, Petrograd lost 72% of its
population, while Moscow lost 53%. David Christian, author of "Imperial and Soviet Russia", comments on the ineffectiveness Lenin has when
leading Russia as a country, "a government claiming to represent the people now found itself on the verge of being overthrown by that same working
class. The crisis had undermined the loyalty of the villages, the towns and finally sections of the army." There is clear evidence as this when peasants

For example, "The inefficiency of these economies played a large part in the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991," (Ball). This shows that communism
isn't strong enough to maintain countries. Lots of countries have left communism behind for this reason. Throughout history, there have been adverse
effects as well. Although the industrial revolution played a part in the creation of communism, industries have also been badly affected by communism.
For example, during the Russian Civil War, industrial production dropped down to one–fifth of how it was before the war. This caused wages to drop
by two–thirds. Workers decided to stop working because they had been putting just as much effort into their work as they did before the war, yet they
were being paid a lot less (War Communism).
Last but not least, communism also has some benefits. For instance, the ". . . public ownership of the major means of production and distribution
of goods and services. . . principle" (Ball). This shows that a majority of things is fairly shared. People have similar visions of the world around
them because of the less social division. As a result, the absence of social classes has also led to more mingling among people. Poverty is also no
longer much of an issue. As all people put their own part in the workforce, things are equally distributed which prevents a person from becoming poor

Communism And Communism
Communism is a belief that there shall be greater equality and honesty will be granted in the world (Sheldon). There was a huge discrimination
between those living in poverty versus those who are wealthy. In order to end this, people believed that a combat between the two sides was the
only way to do so, causing lots of violence and injury. Despite this, the result of combat was social and economic justice to those who were not
originally given it (Ali). Citizens living in poverty were often paid less money than the wealthy, even if they were doing the exact same task, so when
equality was given to the working class, many people's lives were influenced positively. Communists believed it was their duty to whip out capitalism,
and they did this by targeting the upper–class citizens and formed communist blocs, who were the socialist states who practiced communism (Ali).
There were four major ideas in communism. The first idea was that members believed in both the society and God. The members do not have the

Essay On Communism Is Idealistic And Unrealistic

  • 1. Essay on Communism is Idealistic and Unrealistic My main understanding of Communism is that it's an ideal society that is unrealistic for humans to maintain. It is a system of social organization where everything and everyone is equal. The ideology of communism came out of the mind of Karl Marx. He is said to be the father of Communism and it was his belief that private property was the cause of poverty and therefore came to settle on the idea that no one person should have control over their own production of goods, land ownership, or the management of funds. In this system, major resources and means of production are owned by the community rather than by individuals. It's a society without money, without a state, without property and without social classes. All people would...show more content... What also injected fear into every level of the American society as well as all government levels was McCarthy's Red Scare, where Senator Joseph McCarthy made a tremendous amount of accusations towards Communists that neither the police nor the government could keep up with verifying. The people he accused were "blacklisted", which meant they were assumed to be conversing with the enemy. Democratic governments depleted as poor conditions ran across the world, furthermore, the Great Depression forced many people to be frustrated with a democracy. They wanted change and a new era and a quick way out of the economic problems that they faced. This would be accomplished with the new governments of Nazism, Fascism, and Communism. These new governments all seem rather similar; however have very different views regarding how society should be. Communism is based on common ownership and production in which the state operates under a one party system. While Nazism or, National Socialism, has a combination of various theologies and philosophies that centered on nationalism, and does not approve of Communism. During the Great Depression, the stock market tanked and thousands of people in the United States lost their jobs. The tranquil, calm minds of the American people were replaced with fear and anxiety of what could happen. This not only affected the economy in the United States but also rippled info Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Communism Essay I Introduction Communism: A theory and system of social and political organization that was a major force in world politics for much of the 20th century. As a political movement, communism sought to overthrow capitalism through a workers' revolution and establish a system in which property is owned by the community as a whole rather than by individuals. In theory, communism would create a classless society of abundance and freedom, in which all people enjoy equal social and economic status. In practice, communist regimes have taken the form of coercive, authoritarian governments that cared little for the plight of the working class and sought above all else to preserve their own...show more content... Lenin's successor, Joseph Stalin, turned the Soviet Union into a dictatorship based on total state control of the economy and the suppression of any form of opposition. As a result of Lenin's and Stalin's policies, many people came to associate the term communism with undemocratic or totalitarian governments that claimed allegiance to Marxist–Leninist ideals. The term Marxism–Leninism refers to Marx's theories as amended and put into practice by Lenin. After World War II (1939 –1945), regimes calling themselves communist took power in China, Eastern Europe, and other regions. The spread of communism marked the beginning of the Cold War, in which the Soviet Union and the United States, and their respective allies, competed for political and military supremacy. By the early 1980s, almost one–third of the world's population lived under communist regimes. These regimes shared certain basic features: an embrace of Marxism–Leninism, a rejection of private property and capitalism, state domination of economic activity, and absolute control of the government by one party, the communist party. The party's influence in society was pervasive and often repressive. It controlled and censored the mass media, restricted religious worship, and silenced political dissent. Communist societies encountered dramatic change in the late Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Communism in China Essays Communism is a system of government, a political ideology that rejects private ownership and promotes a classless, stateless society based on common ownership of all property and the means of production, where by all work is shared and all proceeds are commonly owned. Communism is practised in China, North Korea, Vietnam, Laos and Cuba. However most of the world's communist governments have been disbanded since the end of World War II. Soon after the Japanese surrendered at the end of World War II, Communist forces began a war against theKuomintang in China. The Communists gradually gained control of the country and on the 1st October, 1949, Mao Zedong announced the victory of the Communist party and the establishment of the People's...show more content... The arrival of Chiang's armies into many rural areas often indicated theft, rape, and murders to common villagers, while Mao's armies were more educated and trained to protect the needs of the peasants in order to win their support. Where the landlords and peasants initially supported the Guomindang, and students and intellectuals looked to the Nationalists for salvation, both sections of the community began to embrace and support the communist ideals. As public services such as health and education suffered under the GMD and living conditions in rural areas worsened, civilians rapidly joined the Communist party. Many soldiers who fought for the Nationals changed sides and began fighting for communism. The essential focus of Mao's revolution revolved solely around the peasants who made up 85% of the population. His new land reforms meant taking land from rich landlords and dividing it amongst poorer peasants. Mao also introduced national health care as 95% of individuals in China had never seen a doctor The PLA rapidly expanded with more peasants joining. In 1947 the Communists captured their new capital, Yan'an and in 1948 they attacked the GMD army capturing all the major cities– Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. The Americans originally supported the GMD as they wanted China ( the GMD and Communists) to form a joint government in order to fight Japan– America's enemy. They finally cut off all aid to the GMD troops Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. Essay on Communism "Communism" What is Communism? Communism is the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the proletariat. It also can be defined as a conceptualized system of government in which resources and production facilities are the property of the entire society rather than individuals. In a communist society, labor is shared equally as well, and the benefits of labor are distributed according to need (Communism.4all 1). No one person shall be ranked higher than another and there is to be one person in charge of the society in a communism government. There are still to this day many countries that fall under the rule of communism and the ways they were transformed under communist rule is quite interesting....show more content... This division of labor was less time consuming and the worker could make more and a less amount of time. The invention of these machines reduced the amount of time that the workers had to spend on making the items themselves. This in turn lessened the work for because soon there would be no need for the workers due to the machines. But, at the same time, they also fell in to the hands of big capitalists, and their workers were deprived of whatever independence remained to them (Marxists 3). Communism is viewed also by a religious standpoint. To explain the kind of communism that the early church practiced it is necessary to understand the sense of brotherhood that the members of the Church had toward each other. It was not, to be sure, an arbitrary communism and bears no relation to communists of today, but the principal on which it was based was communistic. They held jobs, bought and sold and made profit of their earnings, much like you would see in an ideal social democracy (Latter Rain 1). What the Jerusalem church practiced was a voluntary and democratic social communism. The representation of communism in the modern world is something entirely different.

  • 5. Communism vs Capitalism Essay Capitalism vs. Communism Throughout history, there have been many systems developed in order to have a better society. Two of the most analyzed, and debated systems that have tired to change an economy for the best are communism, and capitalism. Communism, and capitalism have been compared on many levels, such as why they will or will not work, and which one works better. Throughout this essay I will concentrate on the differences, and similarities of how each operates, along with the benefits, and problems that each of them produces. Both of these economic systems theories came about around the same time, in the late 17th to mid18th centuries. One of the main contributor for...show more content... This is the theory of a free market, based on supply and demand to take care of the consumer welfare. Capitalism gives people the freedom to do as they wish, and allows them the opportunities to work to gain great wealth, or to just survive in the society. While communism sets direct demands on the work you do and what you need to produce, so others can benefit as well as you from your hard work. There are many different outcomes and problems that can occur as a result of the different systems. The benefits for communism are set up on a larger scale that takes time and effort, as for capitalism hard work produces quick gains. Since it is harder for people of communism to see direct results from their hard work, there can be a tendency of people doing less, but still receiving the same as everyone else. Thus, there needs to be some type of point system, which makes sure each person does enough work to show for the goods received. If the work is not done then something needs to be done, such as not giving them their share, jail time, or kicked out of the community, resulting in poorer living standards. Capitalism however, gives each individual a choice of the benefits they will receive from working hard or not. You still have the chance to be poor, but unlike communism you have the chance to become rich. In communism the hardest workers receive the same, but in capitalism the hardest workers reap the most rewards. Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Essay on Communism In the beginning Communism seemed to the people of Russia as a utopian ideal. The promise of the elimination of classes, of guaranteed employment, "The creation of a comprehensive social security and welfare system for all citizens that would end the misery of workers once and for all." Lenin's own interpretation of the Marxian critique was that to achieve Communism there would first have to be a socialist dictatorship to first suppress any dissent or protest. Through coercive tactics this new government seized power and in 1917 Lenin came to power. Under his "rule" Russia underwent radical changes in it's economic doctrines adopting a mixed which was termed the New Economic Policy, also referred to as NEP. This...show more content... Lenin believed that Trotsky was the best suitable to take the Communist party to the next level. Trotsky was not all that popular among party members though and Stalin was in a position as Gen Sek, or General Secretary, to place his people in powerful positions throughout the party. Also, Stalin worked extremely hard at achieving power whereas Trotsky was rather lazy. Because of these reasons along with Stalin's "zero tolerance" attitude towards everyone, he was able to seize control. Once in control, Stalin's first major achievements were the Five Year Plans for industry. Russia had not yet had theirindustrial revolution and were far behind the other powers of the world. The first Five Year Plan worked as far as industrial output was concerned, but it was at much cost to the people of Russia. Once the Five Year Plans started to roll, Stalin decided to make some agricultural changes to support the industrialization. In April, 1928, Stalin presented the draft of a new land law. Although the draft failed to become a law, it showed a couple of Stalin's objectives. One was the rapid and forcible collectivization of the peasants in order to industrialize the country quickly. The other was the liquidation of the kulaks as a class. Kulaks were seen as industrious or prosperous peasants who were not enthusiastic about the policies of the communist party. Collectivization was the forcible consolidation of individual peasant farms into Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Karl Marx and Communism Essay Karl Marx and Communism Were Karl Marx ideas on communism moral? It is quite obvious that some societies do or did believe that communism was a good way of life. Even though there are many drawbacks to communism there are still some advantages. Karl Marx is a man of intrigue he only did what he wanted to and not what others wanted him to do. Upon completion of my research I feel that Marx was a very bright man. His ideas may not be all together but a man that can introduce communism to the world and actually get people to follow Marx ideas is powerful to me. In my research paper I would like to tell you a little about the life and times of Karl Marx, and how is ideas effect the economy today. Karl Marx was born at 2 am on May...show more content... Marx on the other hand wanted to go for philosophy. He switched to Berlin University after his first year so that he could get a better education. Marx disappointed his father by not studying law and told his father "I did not read works on jurisprudence primarily to become a lawyer, but rather to find metaphysical answers." (Padover 49). Marx got a doctorate in philosophy from Berlin with financial help from his mom whom was not well off financially and lived in a lower–middle class neighborhood. In 1842 Karl Marx started writing for a liberal democratic newspaper called Rheinische Zietung in Cologne, and at the end of 1842 Marx became the editor for the paper (Padover 29). In the beginning of 1843 Marx was told by the ministry that at the end of the quarter the paper must cease publication, causing Karl to resign immediately. The summer of 1843 before heading to Paris to devote his time to studying political economy and the history of the great French Revolution, he married the daughter of Privey Councillor Von Westphalen in trier named Jenny Von Westphalen. Marx liked to speak his mind in writings, which caused him to be expelled from France by Guizot in 1845 (Carver 208) . Upon leaving France he went to Brussels and stayed there, pursuing the same studies, until the outbreak of the February Revolution. Marx still could not keep his ideas to himself and was asked to leave Brussels, He was Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Communism, Capitalism, and Socialism Essay Three different types of economic systems used by governments are Communism, Capitalism, and Socialism. Each type of system is unique in different ways. Each has distinct aspects that make it what it is. In communism, the government runs everything and there are no social classes. The government in capitalism doesn't interfere with any businesses and lets the citizens own and operate them. Socialism is basically a mixture of the two economic systems. The government runs certain businesses, but citizens run the rest. The three economic systems are different in the way they run things and regulate things. Communism is an economic system developed by Karl Marx. Communism, also called Marxism, is an economic system used by...show more content... It is the economic system used by a government that regulates only certain businesses for the welfare of the citizens. The government normally only regulates housing, education, food, and medical issues. Since that is all the government regulates, private citizens are allowed to own businesses. However, the income of these businesses is controlled thru taxes. The strength of socialism is that the government has more control over businesses and can regulate what happens in them. The weakness is that people interested in owning a business in the area of housing, education, food, or medical issues cannot. All the three economic systems are different in unique ways. The most effective out of the three economic systems is capitalism. It is the most effective for a few reasons. First, people are allowed to own any type of business they want. In socialism they can't own a variety of businesses because the government runs them. In communism, no one can own a business because the government owns everything. If people are allowed to own any type of business that they want and keep the profits of the business, they will want to work harder then they would under communism or socialism. In addition, just because the government doesn't interfere with businesses a lot doesn't mean that the businesses aren't strong.

Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" (Wikipedia, 2011) Later, in the fall of 1989, civilians started chipping away at the wall.

Citizens were tired of oppression, hunger, censorship, and in essence, life itself being a hardship. Protestors gathered and a peaceful revolution had started to tear down the wall. By the beginning of 1990, the wall was decimated with a few watch towers standing as memorials to the fallen that tried to escape to freedom in the West.

  • 12. Communism And Its Impact On Society Communism is perhaps one of the most controversial political ideas in society. When most people think of communism, most likely the first thing that they will think of is Russia and the Soviets. Yes, the Soviets did have a vast part of the developing of communist ideas, but there is a lot more to that. Since Karl Marx and his colleague Friedrich Engels first came up with the ideas of communism, it has grown to be one of the most frequent topics in world history. Communism has died down since its peak in the Fifties and Sixties after World War II, but the impact will be marked in history books forever. Now what exactly is this complex political idea? Communism describes a society in which every member owns their resources and wealth and products are equally distributed to every citizen in a society (Thompson 297). Basically, everyone in a communist society is at an equal economic class, there is no first, second, and third class families as in democracy. Many people also mix up a similar idea known as socialism, and often use their ideas in interchanging ways. Communism is an extreme version of socialism that refers to an economic and political system ("The Basics of..."). Socialism is, however, just an economic system. Both socialism and communism have their own ideas, but are relatively similar. Communism is followed today in countries in Asia and ninety miles south of Florida in Cuba.

  • 15. Communism : Communism And Communism Marx understanding of society shift into modernism lead to develop a form of communism that would come to be known as Marxism, communism is the economic thought of Marxism. Marx understands that Modernism calls for society to embrace equality for the betterment of society. Part of the problem with Capitalism comes from its exploitation of the working class; Marx understands this problem to be a vein of Pre–modernism and not a pillar of Modernism. Marx calls for the working class to rise up over their bourgeoisie oppressors and seize the equality that rightfully belongs to them. "Society as a whole is more and more splitting up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other – bourgeoisie and proletariat. (Communist pg. 9)" If society wants to embrace modernism, then society needs to shift its focus from fighting each other and one exploiting another to a classless society. Marx highly criticizes the bourgeoisie in The Communist Manifesto, and this stems from the problems they created for themselves and for the rest of society. In their attempt to gain more power, land, and resources, their material conditions, upon the prominence which their families had been formed, were dissipating due to the lack of foresight and selfish greed. If the Bourgeoisie continues to exploit the proletariat then society will head to conflict, as is expected of Pre–modernism, but if the Bourgeoisie cease its exploitation and relinquish its power for the group, Get more content on HelpWriting.net

According to Soviet historiography, this policy was adopted by the Bolsheviks with the goal of keeping towns and the Red Army stocked with weapons and with food. The system had to be used because the continuous war disrupted normal economic means and relations. Warcommunism was enforced by the Supreme Economic Council, known as the Vesenkha.

A black market emerged in Russia with bartering being the main medium of exchange. Wages were paid with goods rather than money. Coal production dramatically decreased, and heavy industry had fallen to output levels of 20%. In addition, the grain harvest also decreased in half, from 80.1 million tons in 1913 to 46.5 million tons in 1920. The experience of ordinary Russians declined during the war communism period. Workers were migrating from the cities to the countryside, where the chances to feed themselves were higher. This reduced the possibility of exchange of industrial goods for foods and worsened the population in urban areas. For example, between 1918 and 1920, Petrograd lost 72% of its population, while Moscow lost 53%. David Christian, author of "Imperial and Soviet Russia", comments on the ineffectiveness Lenin has when leading Russia as a country, "a government claiming to represent the people now found itself on the verge of being overthrown by that same working class. The crisis had undermined the loyalty of the villages, the towns and finally sections of the army." There is clear evidence as this when peasants refused to co–operate in producing food, and in February 1921, the Cheka reported 118 separate peasant uprisings alone.

Communism is an ". . . economic doctrine that aims to replace private property . . . with public ownership . . . of at least the major means of production" (Ball).

For example, "The inefficiency of these economies played a large part in the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991," (Ball). This shows that communism isn't strong enough to maintain countries. Lots of countries have left communism behind for this reason. Throughout history, there have been adverse effects as well. Although the industrial revolution played a part in the creation of communism, industries have also been badly affected by communism. For example, during the Russian Civil War, industrial production dropped down to one–fifth of how it was before the war. This caused wages to drop by two–thirds. Workers decided to stop working because they had been putting just as much effort into their work as they did before the war, yet they were being paid a lot less (War Communism). Last but not least, communism also has some benefits. For instance, the ". . . public ownership of the major means of production and distribution of goods and services. . . principle" (Ball). This shows that a majority of things is fairly shared. People have similar visions of the world around them because of the less social division. As a result, the absence of social classes has also led to more mingling among people. Poverty is also no longer much of an issue. As all people put their own part in the workforce, things are equally distributed which prevents a person from becoming poor (Ball). In all, communism is built upon the principle of equal opportunity and it has its pros and cons. Do you think the pros are worth Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 19. Communism And Communism Communism is a belief that there shall be greater equality and honesty will be granted in the world (Sheldon). There was a huge discrimination between those living in poverty versus those who are wealthy. In order to end this, people believed that a combat between the two sides was the only way to do so, causing lots of violence and injury. Despite this, the result of combat was social and economic justice to those who were not originally given it (Ali). Citizens living in poverty were often paid less money than the wealthy, even if they were doing the exact same task, so when equality was given to the working class, many people's lives were influenced positively. Communists believed it was their duty to whip out capitalism, and they did this by targeting the upper–class citizens and formed communist blocs, who were the socialist states who practiced communism (Ali). There were four major ideas in communism. The first idea was that members believed in both the society and God. The members do not have the freedom to believe in whatever they would like, which the United States allowed.
