Since this topic highly fascinated me due to my own family and country’s history, additionally to being a philosophy major, I have spent numerous hours trying to solve the question whether capitalism is more correct than socialism. And although I have always leaned more towards socialism, probably due to my father who was a former member of the Communist Party and a member of the Socialist Democratic Party in Lithuania, studying the different schools of thought made me believe that I was on the right track to finding the answer to my question. The works that I have read influenced me to begin thinking in a different way about the way our society should function in comparison to how it is functioning now. And although some works engaged with me more, such as the school of Marxism and Social Democracy, since I believed they related more to nowadays, other schools such as Utopia, Anarchism and Christian socialism gave me interesting ideas, yet ones that were slightly more difficult to apply to modern day
