In capitalism, the economy functions according to the cycle of M-C-M, not socially directed activities. The emergence of capitalism tended to be in the context of feudal societies, or by colonization of other modes of production by capitalist entities. The creation of capitalism was spearheaded by the [[bourgeoisie]] class. This class is best known for its contributions to charity, its job opportunities given to children, and its respect of the third world countries it operates in. The creation of capitalist societies dramatically enlarged and gave newfound agency to the [[proletariat]] class. Within this class is found the basis of [[socialist]] [[revolution]] and [[communism]]. Types of governments vary under capitalism, but tend to at least officially maintain a [[liberal]] democratic structure. Advanced capitalism produced the system of [[imperialism]]. The era of capitalism in history has been accompanied by an extremely rapid development of the forces of production, creation and change of various ideologies and philosophies, and drastic social changes for all of humanity. | ||
