'''Socialism''' is a system of government which asserts that individual volition should be at all times subordiate to the state and society. Whilst Conservatism also stresses the importance of society (as opposed to liberalism, which emphasises the individual), it has very different views on how to promote it. The central value of socialism is equality, which socialists believe is necessary for a healthy society, whereas Conservatives believe that inequality is both necessary and inevitable, instead espusing noblesse oblige. Socialism work from the questionable premise that humans are generally a force for good, and will cooperate with their fellow men.

'''Communism''' is an extreme form of socialism by which the means of production and distribution are tightly controlled by government rather than individuals. This denies the right to [[private property]]. In practice these are commonly undemocratic (as in North Korea, Vietnam and Cuba). China is controlled by a non-democratic Communist party but practices capitalism.
