From its Enlightenment-era origins through Karl Marx's scientific socialism to the 20th-century experiments in the Soviet Union, Cuba, and the Nordic welfare states, socialism has encompassed a vast range of theories and practices united by the conviction that collective organization produces more equitable outcomes than market competition.
