| | Planned economy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A planned economy is an economic system in which government decisions are made by central state economic managers who determine what sorts of goods and services to produce and how they are to be priced and allocated, and may include state ownership of the means of production. | | | A planned economy can serve social rather than individual ends: under such a system, rewards, whether wages or perquisites, are to be distributed according to the social value of the service performed. | | | Supporters of planned economies cast them as a practical measure to ensure the production of necessary goods—one which does not rely on the vagaries of free markets. |

| | A market economy is an economy in which most allocations of resources occur as a result of interactions between buyers and sellers of goods and services. | | | Although market economies are often identified with capitalism, if could be argued that the connection need not be very strong. | | | The key difference between market economies and command economies lies not with the degree of government influence but with how that influence is used. |

| | Economics |
| | Macroeconomics, which examines an economy as a whole with a view to understanding the interaction between economic aggregates such as national income, employment and inflation. | | | Mainstream economics does not assume a priori that markets are preferable to other forms of social organization. | | | There are also those who use the terms economics and political economy as interchangeable. |

| | Lesson 1.1: Types of Economies |
| | Specifically, the economy was not growing, consumers in China faced a barely sufficient food supply, rationed clothing, inadequate housing and a service sector that was inefficient. | | | In a market economy, most economic resources are owned by individuals, not the government. | | | Market economies are most often associated with democratic governments. |

| | Modern Corporation |
| | In much of the economy substitutes for a good are common, alternatives are available, and efficiency is best pursued by trying to match the value of the last unit of the product produced to its cost in terms of resources. | | | Our corporate economy allows large hierarchical organizations to fill those niches in which planning is appropriate, and is thus preferable to alternatives that either leave no role for the market or no role for large organizations. | | | To have a market economy is by and large a good thing: the price mechanism acts as a gigantic social calculating machine to organize our economy and to direct the division of labor and the allocation of production: an invisible hand, as it were (Smith, 1776; p. |

| | Market Economy - Command and Market Economies |
| | Market economies provide no magic solutions, however, and government plays a critical role in helping correct problems that can't be fully solved by a system of private markets. | | | Another key point about market economies is that the prices for shirts, blouses, and other products sold in stores aren't set by a government planning committee. | | | Moreover, market economies are by no means immune to pressing public policy issues in today's global economy -- issues such as inflation, unemployment, pollution, poverty, and barriers to international trade. |

| | Shifting responsibility for social services as enterprises privatize in Belarus |
| | In former command economies, such as Belarus, the process of enterprises shedding their "social assets"is seen as necessary to the transition to a market economy. | | | Firms in market economies respond similarly to the same incentives, and the continuing favorable tax treatment of benefits explains much of their continued importance, in Belarus and elsewhere. | | | Between 1994 and 1995 those benefits, as a portion of employee remuneration in Belarus, were cut by at least twothirds.The economic downturn then contributed to a relative decline in benefits, particularly those involving capital expenditures such as housing construction and maintenance. |

| | Command Economies |
| | The USSR's economy was in bad shape; the annual Budget was never in balance. | | | The CIS economy continues to struggle along, the government heavily dependent on loans from western international bodies like the International Monetary Fund to provide the funds to pay for the restructuring of the economy. | | | Socialism is a type of economic system that allows private enterprise and private property to exist in an economy, but also requires the state to be a major producer and employer. |

| | Lesson 3 - Answering the Three Basic Economic Questions |
| | In a market economy, decisions are left to businesses and individuals and the forces of supply and demand to determine what is produced and its value. | | | In a command economy, the government controls the resources and the means of production and makes the decisions. | | | Write their names on the board and ask students to identify the characteristics of each. In a traditional economy, producers and consumers make choices based on what has been done in the past and often economic choices are handed down from generation to generation. |

| | There was also central economic planning, which meant that the economy was directed by the government rather than by decentralized market mechanisms. | | | Recent income growth and stronger enforcement of tax collection has increased tax revenues, helping to turn the government's 1998 budget deficit into a surplus in 2002. | | | Joint ventures between Russia and foreign companies are one possible way to increase competition and recent legislation has opened the door for firms to invest directly in Russia. |

For example, in the United States there are many laws that suppliers must obey to make sure that their products are safe. | | | Market economies are all about using money to sell and buy in an open market. | | | A market economy answers the four basic questions by what is called "the law of supply and demand." In a market, or "free enterprise," economy, four things are supposed to be true for everyone: |

| | Market Economy - Workers in a Market Economy |
| | Still, for most workers in market economies, the risks of education and training have been well worth taking over the past few decades, and increasingly so in recent years as economies become more technological and complex. | | | People are free to pursue any career they choose, but only those who are able to meet basic performance standards in the jobs they choose will remain on an employer's payroll. | | | But just like firms considering investments in new plants and equipment, workers in market economies bear clear costs and risks in acquiring additional education and training. |

| | Conclusion: Both Market and Centrally planned economies have advantages or benefits and disadvantages or costs that are inherent to their respective economic systems. | | | (6)Centrally planned economies foster economic power for the citizens in a particular country because the majority of the wealth (factories, land, sports clubs, stocks, bonds and other assets) is collectively owned by the people at various levels of society(Federal, State, Local etc). | | | (2)The profit motive that drives economic activities in market economies is not central in the allocation of resources in centrally planned economies. |

| | And since Hungary began implementing economic reforms, the production sectors of the economy funneled through the trade sector a far better supply and variety of goods and services than Hungarians had enjoyed earlier. | | | Hungary's domestic trade sector differed significantly from the cumbersome rationing system that existed in most centrally planned economies. | | | By the late 1980s, Hungary's economy had largely overcome the supply shortages that tormented both producers and consumers in countries with command economies. |

| | There are important technical, moral, and political issues about conversion of this minority into a majority, including whether that would be a good thing, whether it is required by fairness, how much priority should be given to information technology in developing countries especially relative to processes of industrialization, and so forth. | | | Before attempting to think through these metaphors, it is worthwhile to note at the outset that we ``netizens,'' or regular users of the Internet, are only a minority of our fellow citizens, even in societies that have passed through industrialization and are now exploring economies in which information technology has become central. | | | However, given the failure of command economies in real-world tests such as the USSR, Heideggerian inherence dystopianism may recommend itself instead. |
