| | SOCIALISM - LoveToKnow Article on SOCIALISM |
 | | All were awake to the evils of the workmens position as described by the social democrats, and they were anxious that the Catholic church should not leave the cure of the evils to be effected without her assistance. | | | Socialism has its allies in the sporadic Christian socialism of the Churches, both Catholic and Protestant, and in the solidarists who would transform the existing system of employment without abolishing private property. | | | Modern scientific socialism was thus about fifty years old towards the end of the first decade of the 20th century. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Socialism |
| | Socialism, then, both in Church and Family, is impersonal and deterministic: it deprives the individual of both his religious and his domestic freedom. | | | The bishops and clergy, the lay experts on social and economic questions, the philosophers, the theologians, and practically the whole body of the faithful are unanimous in their acceptance of the condemnation. | | | It is true that, before the publication of the Encyclical "Rerum novarum", it was not unusual to apply the term "Christian Socialism" to the social reforms put forward throughout Europe by those Catholics who are earnestly endeavouring to restore the social philosophy of Catholicism to the position it occupied in the ages of Faith. |

| | Socialism |
| | From the beginning, however, the concept of socialism shared with that of communism the argument that only through a transformation of fundamental social relations could the evils of poverty and unequal, hierarchical distributions of power and wealth be overcome. | | | Both his plans for socialism and his personal politics would lead some later commentators to see in him an ancestor of 20th Century technocracy. | | | Nevertheless, even these activities were shaped by his belief that reforms could be achieved through the use of existing state power and the development of British trade unionism was strongly influenced by this belief. |

| | Socialism has, naturally, imbibed much of the cultural background of Western religions. | | | “Bolshevism as a social phenomenon is to be reckoned as a religion, not an ordinary political movement...” | | | Marxian Socialism must always remain a portent to the historians of Opinion - how a doctrine so illogical and so dull can have exercised so powerful and enduring an influence over the minds of men, and, through them, the events of history. |

| | socialism alone represents the material heaven of plenty for those who toil and the Socialist Party alone offers the political means for attaining that heaven of economic plenty which the toil of the workers of the world provides in unceasing and measureless flow. | | | The increased discussion of socialism here is very marked, though the study of books and requests for lectures come almost exclusively from people of the prosperous middle classes. | | | Then, again, there are our religious friends who have vaguely, but wrongly, believed that socialism was the enemy of religion. |

| | In the 1840s the term communism came into use to denote loosely a militant leftist form of socialism; it was associated with the writings of Étienne Cabet and his theories of common ownership. | | | Thereafter, revolutionary socialism, or communism, and evolutionary, or democratic, socialism were two separate and frequently mutually antagonistic movements. | | | Because of the collective nature of socialism, it is to be contrasted to the doctrine of the sanctity of private property that characterizes capitalism. |

| | Modern History Sourcebook: Bernstein: Evolutionary Socialism |
| | He was a colleague of Engels, and claimed Engel's support in dismissing with revolutionism, and calling for an evolutionary socialism, or as it is more commonly called "revisionism".. | | | But it is evident that if social evolution takes a much greater period of time than was assumed, it must also take upon itself forms and lead to forms that were not foreseen and could not be foreseen then. | | | In short, Engels is so thoroughly convinced that the tactics based on the presumption of a catastrophe have had their day, that he even considers a revision of them necessary in the Latin countries where tradition is much more favourable to them than in Germany. |

| | Together, Mises and Hayek launched an attack on the feasibility of socialism that seemed at the time unconvincing in its argument as to the functional problems of a planned economy. | | | The system that evolved under Stalin and his successors took the form of a pyramid of command. | | | Whether socialism in some form will eventually return as a major organizing force in human affairs is unknown, but no one can accurately appraise its prospects who has not taken into account the dramatic story of its rise and fall. |

| | As most people use the term "socialism," that would seem to be a contradiction in terms. | | | We hadn't taken these ideas very seriously before -- it didn't seem worthwhile, since "everybody knew" there was no need for alternatives -- and only a minority were affected, since most people hadn't any thoughts about alternatives to begin from. | | | In order to find the basic ideas of anti-government socialism, we have to go back to the period before the Russian Revolution of 1917, when some schools of socialist thought were quite close to anarchism. |
