  Socialism is termed as an economic political and social philosophy covering an assortment of social and economic frameworks characterized by social ownership of the means of production and the self-control of enterprises by workers. It incorporates the political movements and theories related to such systems. A social obligation may be mainstream, collective, collaborative, or equitable. 
  Socialism and communism are described fundamentally as economic principles that promote the public in place of private ownership, primarily in a system of factors of production, distribution, and exchange of products and services that aim at making money. Both elements are poised for resolving the rising problems they consider to be created by a series of misguided industrial policies.  
  The complex evolution of socialism reflects the broad variety of definitions and interpretations of socialism across the political landscape and the absence of a common consensus of what socialism is or how it appears to look in the practical realm.  
  Even so, within countries around the globe, socialist party outfits and concepts continue to shape policy matters. And the prevalence of socialism contributes to the universal appeal of seeking a more egalitarian social implementation.

  The Nature of the Future -...

  Large corporations, big governments, and other centralized organizations have long determined and dominated the way we work, access healthcare, get an education, feed ourselves, and generally go about our lives. The economist Ronald Coase, in his famous 1937 paper “The Nature of the Firm,” provided an economic explanation for this: Organizations lowered transaction costs, making the provision of goods and services cheap, efficient, and reliable. Today, this organizational advantage is rapidly disappearing. The Internet is lowering transaction costs-costs of connection, coordination, and trade-and pointing to a future that increasingly favors distributed sources and social solutions to some of our most immediate needs and our most intractable problems.As Silicon Valley thought-leader Marina Gorbis, head of the Institute for the Future, portrays, a thriving new relationship-driven or socialstructed economy is emerging in which individuals are harnessing the powers of new technologies to join together and provide an array of products and services. Examples of this changing economy range from BioCurious, a members-run and free-to-use bio lab, to the peer-to-peer lending platform Lending Club, to the remarkable Khan Academy, a free online-teaching service. These engaged and innovative pioneers are filling gaps and doing the seemingly impossible by reinventing business, education, medicine, banking, government, and even scientific research. Based on

  Steppe Nomads The: The History...

  Though history is usually written by the victors, the lack of a particularly strong writing tradition from the Mongols ensured that history was largely written by those who they vanquished. Because of this, their portrayal in the West and the Middle East has been extraordinarily (and in many ways unfairly) negative for centuries, at least until recent revisions to the historical record. The Mongols have long been depicted as wild horse-archers galloping out of the dawn to rape, pillage, murder and enslave, but the Mongol army was a highly sophisticated, minutely organized and incredibly adaptive and innovative institution, as witnessed by the fact that it was successful in conquering enemies who employed completely different weaponry and different styles of fighting, from Chinese armored infantry to Middle Eastern camel cavalry and Western knights and men-at-arms.  
  	Geographically the Tatars descend from several parts of Asia, particularly Central Asia, but the Crimean region has been the nexus of several great power rivalries and numerous conflicts. Yet the Crimean Tatars endured through many of these, aligning themselves with a number of larger powers and developing a reputation as fearsome warriors. Today the Tatars are mainly linked with and live in the Volga region of the Russian Federation. Indeed, Tatarstan is a republic in modern Russia. The “Volga Tatars” are perhaps the best known of the peoples known as Tatars and today number about 5 million people.  
  	Before the Mongols rode across the steppes of Asia and Eastern Europe, the Cumans were a major military and cultural force that monarchs from China to Hungary and from Russia to the Byzantine Empire faced, often losing armies and cities in the process. The Cumans were a tribe of Turkic nomads who rode the steppes looking for plunder and riches, but they rarely stayed long after they got what they wanted.
