Subject: What is Collectivism?
Date: Wed, 8 Nov 95 21:58:58 +0100

Several people have characterized my position in general, and specifically
in relation to the post on recovery of in R &D investment, as collectivist,
but what is "Collectivism?" I am not aware of this term being used
in political science or economics. Looking it up in the dictionary
was not of any help. Can somebody supply a definition (including a citation
of a source)? I am not looking for a example definition,
such as, "the system used in country X", but one based upon other
theoretically valid terms, such as "property", "market economy", etc.
