Formations and their driving forces

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze and compare three systems: capitalism, socialism and digitalism through empirical and theoretical research methods. Its objectives are to describe the uniqueness of each formation, identifying their driving forces and the features used in the process of formation of one or another political-economic system. In defining capitalism, we note its reliance on capitalist capital as the main instrument and engine of expansion. As distinct from the liberals, the socialists declared as their principle the idea of universal equality, using as a catalyst the processes of unification of the working classes of the peoples and the struggle of the enslaved until the total victory of the exploited over the exploiters. Thus, to achieve the paradise of a communist political-economic formation the socialists needed a world revolution and the total suppression of the oppressed against the oppressors. Through studying these systems we can infer that they are similar in purpose and in the means of achieving their goals.
