in this video we're going to look at a

simple explanation of Communism as well

as an explanation for private property

examples of Communism and lastly the

pros and cons of communism

communism is a political and economic

ideology that advocates for the

establishment of a classless society in

which all resources and wealth are owned

and controlled by the community as a

whole

the goal of Communism is to create a

society in which the means of production

are owned by the people and goods and

services are distributed according to

the needs of the community

in this system there is no private

property and all individuals work

together to create a society that is

free from economic and social inequality

private property is a fundamental

concept within the Communist ideology

and it is one of the main issues that

distinguishes communism from other

economic systems in communism private

property refers to the means of

production such as factories land and

Machinery which are typically owned and

controlled by individuals or

corporations

Communists believe that private property

leads to economic inequality and

exploitation as the owners of these

means of production can use them to

extract profit from the labor of others

they argue that private property is a

form of theft as it allows individuals

to take the fruit of others labors

without contributing anything themselves

in a communist system private property

is abolished and the means of production

are owned and controlled by the

community as a whole this means that

everyone has equal access to resources

and wealth and that the community

collectively decides how resources are

allocated and how work is organized

however it is important to note that the

concept of private property within

communism does not necessarily mean that

individuals cannot own personal

possessions for example individuals may

still own their own homes clothing and

personal items the distinction is

between personal property which is owned

for individual use and private property

which is owned for the purpose of

extracting profit from the labor of

others

the origins of Communism can be traced

back to the writings of Karl Marx and

Friedrich Ingles in their book The

Communist Manifesto published in 1848

they laid out the basic principles of

Communism arguing that the capitalist

system was inherently flawed and would

eventually be replaced by a socialist

system which would in turn lead to

Communism

according to Marx and Ingles capitalism

created a society in which the wealthy

controlled the means of production while

the working class was exploited and

forced to sell their labor for low wages

they argued that this system was

unsustainable and that the only way to

create a truly just Society was to

abolish private property and create a

system in which the means of production

were owned by the people

in a communist Society the government

controls all aspects of the economy and

resources are distributed based on need

rather than profit this means that

everyone has access to the basic

necessities of life such as food housing

and Health Care regardless of their

social status or wealth

however the implementation of communist

policies has been controversial and has

often led to authoritarian regimes the

Soviet Union for example was a communist

state that was founded in 1922 and

collapsed in 1991. while the Soviet

Union was initially successful in

industrializing the country and

improving the standard of living for

many people it eventually became bogged

down by corruption and efficiency and a

lack of innovation

similarly China has been governed by the

Chinese Communist Party since 1949 while

the party has implemented a number of

communist policies including the

collectivization of Agriculture and the

nationalization of Industry it has been

criticized for its political repression

human rights violations and

environmental degradation

despite these challenges communism

remains a popular ideology in many parts

of the world particularly in countries

with a history of colonialism and

imperialism
supporters of Communism argue that it is

the only way to create a truly just

society in which resources and wealth

are distributed fairly everyone has

access to basic necessities and promotes

a sense of community and Collective

responsibility

however critics argue that communism is

inherently flawed and that it leads to

authoritarianism the violation of

individual freedoms lack of incentive

and economic inefficiency
