Stance of socialists on free market
economy
Socialism is a political and economic
theory of social organization which advocates
that the means of production, distribution and exchange should be owned by the
community as a whole.
The socialism
has been derived from Latin word socialis, Which refer to social ownership.
They refused private property. Socialists think that individual is not able to
do something in a better so government should come forward to make economic
policies. They stresses that govt should take the economic authority into its
own hands. They back govt to regulate the economy. In this philosophy of market
economy of socialism, the free market cannot be established as they support
governmental control in the market.
Sociologists
are of the view that the government should have control on throughout economy
of the state. They discourage private economy and enhance that no one should be
claimant of his own property as his property is the property of the state.
According to sociologists there would remain
no poor if govt have control on market economy as they will distribute the
income among all members of the society.
They think
that in this way, to follow the principle of socialism,equality would come and
there will be no difference in people. They added that class system would be
automatically come to an end.
Sociologists
argue that, the poverty take birth by the virtue of rich people who brutally
exploit the poor class. They say that rich people will never support such
policies which could spur danger to their market hegemony. Therefore rich class
always wants to be dominant on the societies.
According to
them to eliminate the differences among the societies has one solution, which
is to to distribute the earned income of market economy in all the people
equally.
If the point
of view would analyzed and compare to the Philosophy of Liberalism, it is quite different. As Liberalism is more
appreciable to implement in societies.
Liberalism has
very clear cut opinion about free market economy while Keeping in view the
welfare of a society. Liberals say that ,Private
economy is the basic right of one. The people of a society should be granted
free market with free competition and freedom of contract should be given. In
this way a man will try to bring the best results. They permit the govt to specific
limit in order to not interfere in basic right of freedom of people. Liberals
give more importance to the welfare of society and stresses on, to create equal
opportunities instead of equal division of wealth as Liberals want freedom with
responsibility and welfare of their society.
In sum, the
stance of Socialism is that they want govt interference and fully backs its
control on the market because they stresses on equal division of wealth, not
equal opportunities.
