World Economic Systems Questions
A planned market socialist economy is an economic system that combines elements of both planned and market economies. In this system, the government or a central planning authority plays a significant role in planning and directing economic activities, while also allowing for some degree of market competition and private ownership of businesses. The government typically sets production targets, allocates resources, and determines prices for certain goods and services. However, there is still room for market forces to operate, such as supply and demand dynamics and profit incentives. The goal of a planned market socialist economy is to achieve both economic efficiency and social equity by combining planned economic coordination with market mechanisms.
