Communist Parties worldwide
Communist parties are political organizations that advocate for communism, a system aiming for a classless society where all property is publicly owned. They seek to eliminate capitalism and promote collective ownership of resources and production. Worldwide, their influence has varied, with historical prominence in countries like the Soviet Union and China. Today, communist parties exist in various forms, from ruling parties to small factions. While their core ideology remains linked to thinkers like Karl Marx, interpretations differ widely, leading to a range of practices from authoritarian governance to democratic socialism.
