释义 | capitalism (once / 480 pages) n Capitalism is an economic system featuring the private ownership of business wealth and the free and unfettered operation of trade markets. Capital is usually understood to be money that is put into a business, accumulated by a business, or used in some way to produce more money. In a capitalist economy, the capital is owned by private individuals, as opposed to the government or state (as in socialism or communism). Another important aspect of capitalism is the "free market," where in theory natural competition always leads to innovation and price controls.
