“Extra Credit” Governmental systems in practice: ‘Communist States vs Socialist States’
Research Assignment Week 8: “Extra Credit” Governmental systems in practice: ‘Communist States vs Socialist States’
Dear Students: Through the years of my academic teaching experience I found it very important for my students to get a clear understanding between the political systems/ideology of ‘Socialism and Communism’.
Through qualitative research explore your critical thinking in analytical way to distinguish and compare the Communist system vs Socialist system.
Is there a limited line of similarity or just main differences on the systems? Can we project that Communist states have more tendency to become socialist systems with consolidation of democratic principles or become revolutionary regimes and fail under coup d’etats? Think of Russia under Yeltsin and earlier years of Putin vs China today under Xi as a case study comparing Democratic Socialism vs Communism in the 21st Century.
Mission: Please evaluate and define the institutional principles of these two nations as they developed their political systems. Through your own critical and comprehensive analysis you can make a comparison and detect the similarities and differences that these two nations have in their political and governmental institutions and how they were able to hold on to their political governmental systems.
Guidelines to Consider for your Research:
Consider the spread of Communism under USSR and the how different is from China’s Communist ideology; why?
Consider the first transition of USSR Communism Regime as a Democratic Socialism of Russia during Yeltsin and early years of Putin.
Consider nations such as Finland, Brazil, Venezuela who have adopted Socialism and even integrated Socialist democratic policies are there any similarities of difference or even hopes for China’s transformation from Communism to Socialism?
