Analyzing an Economic System
An economic system is characterized by individuals owning their own tools and workshops, and selling the goods they produce directly to consumers in a central marketplace. However, most production is carried out by these individuals or their families, with very little paid employment of others. Based on the core institutional requirements, why would this system NOT be considered fully capitalist?
Arrange the following descriptions of economic systems in order, from the one with the fewest core organizing institutions to the one that represents a complete capitalist system.
An economic system is considered capitalist as long as it includes the institutions of private property, where individuals can own assets, and markets, where goods and services can be freely exchanged.
Match each core institution of capitalism to its primary description.

What is a key feature of capitalism as an economic system?
Consider an economic system characterized by two main features: 1) Individuals and families own their own land, buildings, and equipment. 2) There is a system for individuals to voluntarily exchange goods and services with each other for mutual benefit. Despite these features, most production is done by individual artisans or within family units. Why does this system fail to meet the specific economic definition of capitalism?
