<p>Imported article (minus the slanted parts).</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;State socialism&#039;&#039;&#039; is a nebulous political and economic concept which involves the [[socialist state|state ownership]] of the [[means of production]] on behalf of the [[proletariat]] with the ultimate goal of transitioning to a more [[democratic socialist]] system of control. The term [[state capitalism]] is sometimes used interchangeably with this concept, however if there is a difference to be made, then state capitalism refers to state ownership without the intent to transition to [[socialism]] later on. [[Democratic socialism|Democratic]] and [[libertarian socialism|libertarian socialists]] in particular tend to use these words interchangeably, as they generally tend to view state socialism as actually just partially socialist. In contrast, it may be said that workers in state socialist nations have genuine control over the means of production through institutions such as trade unions, and thus state socialist nations in practice really are essentially socialist.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> *[[Socialist state]]<br /> *[[State]]<br /> *[[Anarchism]]<br /> [[Category:Issues]]<br /> [[Category:Socialism]]<br /> [[Category:Tendencies]]</div>
