Is there any book which explain the concept of communism, capitalism, socialism n all other important 'isms'? Please hel

I'd look online for a place that sells used college books and first a first year book on political science or philosophy.

That said - start with this: www.politicalcompass.org

It's a very well done (not perfect, but well done) quiz that puts you on a chart against different gradients of political systems. I'll explain the four basics:

DISTRIBUTION OF POWER:

Authoritarianism: The farther up you go, the fewer people have power. Authoritarian means a very strong government and a small number of people or only one person (at the very top) runs the country with no votes or rights for anyone.

Libertarianism: The farther down you go, the more people have power and the weaker government is. At the very bottom there is nobody in charge, and things are decided by individuals or the group - everyone is as free as you can get.

The middle tend to mean you have a strong government that answers to the people.

WHERE THE MONEY IS AT:
Right (capitalist): The farther right you go, the more money there is in the hands of individuals, the less here is in the group. The more right you go you have lower taxes, fewer programs like welfare, and a bigger gap between rich and poor. At the extreme you have no government control over money.

Left (socialist): The more left you go means the money is more and more distributed. At the extreme left everyone makes the same money - no rich or poor.

So let's look at some political ideologies!

Neo-liberal: This is the current political state of the United States and most major world powers. It's halfway authoritarian and very right wing. It means a very powerful government and very little government involvement in the economy.

Authoritarian communism: This is what Russia was. No freedom for the people, but nearly everyone made the same money except for a powerful ruling class who were very rich. It would be all the way at the top, and halfway to the left. North Korea is also like this.

Libertarian communism (anarchism): This is me! Anarchy says that there is no rich or poor (or even money), and that all decisions are democratic done by vote. So leaders are temporary and there is no ruling class. People work for the common good, not for greed.

Democratic socialism: Sweden used to be like this, but it keeps going further right. Very high taxes, but you can stil get rich - just not billionaire rich. Lots of social programs and nobody is poor. Most people are middle class.

There are tons more, but I think if you play with this quiz and read what they have it will really help you understand this kinda stuff. Have fun and remember - I'm biased!

At the top of your computer go to view and click on that a window will open up and go to explorer bars another window will open up go to reseach a side bar will open up with all the reference you could ever need good luck researching your every whim :)

There must be lots of such books - but I haven't seen them. i'm sure Ernie's right and there will be a general primer in most good bookshops. Wikipedia is not definitive but can give good overviews and a useful starting point for further reading. Be aware that the same words can mean very different things in different countries - European and American usage of Socialism, Liberal and Conservative don't have much in common.

Wouldn't that be a good book to have?.... But it would be written by someone who subscribed to one of those 'isms'!
