Argument Research Essay My topic for this paper is communism. My opinion on this topic is that although the idea of communism appears good as a theory, if it were to be put into practice, to run a society, or promote the system to other countries, it would not be as effective as it appears in theory.

There was no real reason that more fascist regimes could not have sprung up after the war. Instead, people looked at countries such as Japan and Germany that were still smoldering in ruins from the destruction caused by fascism. This killed the ideology not only materially, but also mentally. Communism on the other…
systems such as Capitalism, Socialism, and Communism. During the time of Feudalism, societies rebelled against monarchies, rid monarchies of power, and developed new economic systems. These new economic systems were based on what the changing world needed to become a utopian society; free of problems such as crime and poverty.
