PHILIP SNOWDEN ICKORNSHAW

1st Viscount Snowden. This quotation is particularly interesting in that we have an early 20th century socialist acknowledging that one of the objectives of Socialism is to increase the individual’s dependency on the state. By the late 19th century, few socialists if any saw this as an objective of socialism. However, this dependency objective is one of the attack points of conservatives who assume that this is a result of socialism whether or not it was intended.

1st Viscount Snowden. Nationalization is when a nation or state determines that certain industries of areas of the economy should be reserved for the government to operate. Private companies, if they have been operating a nationalized industry losse their rights to continue in that business and may even lose their physica assets in which case th form is supposed to be paid a fair price. In 21st century America we have very few nationalized industries. One of these is the manufacture of nuclear weapons. Communist counties have many if not most of the economy nationalized. From the 19th century socialism has evolved from a belief that most people will best be served by nationalization of most of th major economic functions. However, over time this did not meet Socialism’s other objectives and nationalism became less popular with socialists. Snowden, a leading socialist, wanted to get rid of the concept entirely, and today there are very few situations where there are calls for nationalis. Even the few remaining communist nations are privatizing (the opposite of nationalizing) some of their economy.
