Communism is a political and economic system in which the major productive resources in a society—such as mines, factories, and farms—are owned by the public or the state, and wealth is divided among citizens equally or according to individual need. In its most common usage, the term communism refers to the type of ideal society envisioned by the 19th-century German revolutionary Karl Marx or to forms of government based on Marx's ideas that were established in Russia, China, and other countries in the 20th century. Communism is one form of socialism, which is a system in which the productive resources of a society are publicly rather than privately controlled. Communism was a major force in world politics for most of the 20th century: at one time, about one-third of the world's population lived under communist governments. Today communism is the official form of government in only a handful of countries.

According to communist writers and thinkers, the goal of communism is to create a classless society. Communist thinkers believe this can happen if the people take away the power of the bourgeoisie (the ruling class, who own the means of production) and create a dictatorship of the proletariat (the working class).

Communism is not anti-individualism. However, it does say that decisions should be good for the population as a whole, instead of just being good for one or two people.
