: The problem I'm encountering is that I'm coming across too much information for both styles of government and Im having trouble finding the information I need concerning these issues. I was wondering if anyone would be of any help aiding me in finding this information, because I've found myself -completely- lost. I'd appreciate it a lot, and feel free to e-mail me : )RABBLEROUSER:
I would be interested in seeing your conclusions concerning a hybrid between capitalism and communism.
If you mean combining the technogical advances of capitalism with the cooperative care promised in communism I would recommend researching "market socialism" (Though personally I don't envision "market socialism" as a preferable method of socio-economics).
Another avenue you may explore is John Rawls's "Theory of Social Justice,(?)" especially his concept of "the veil of ignorance."
I would also recommend the writings of Emma Goldman, Rosa Luxemborg, and Raya Dunayevskaya, to name a few feminist intellectuals with socialistic/anarchistic perspectives.
Hopefully I've given you at least some helpful information as I'm sure others will contribute to (and critique) the list I've selected.
Good luck - Rabblerouser
However, the problem I see with a "hybrid" of capitalism and communism (at least Stalinistic communism) is that both are coercive forms of government where an oligarchy determines policies with little say from the citizenry it claims to represent.
None.
