An ideology based [essentially] on the idea expounded by Karl Marx, that in an ideal society everyone would receive what they needed and would produce [according to] their capacity. From this idea was elaborated a doctrine whereby a Socialist state would be established that would in time subsume the economic structure of society into itself. At this point the State itself would wither and the new ideal Communist society would emerge. It's surely a beautiful idea on paper, and may even work with small tribal bands ... but just try to apply it to a society made of millions of us naked apes and see what happens. Marx incidentally suggested that agrarian societies would be more likely to develop in time along such lines; the adoption of Communist doctrine by [industrial] societies like Leninist-Stalinist Russia may arguably be in itself a perversion of Marx's idea.
