ISBN978-1-84064-519-4. «Socialism is a system based upon de facto public or social ownership of the means of production, the abolition of a hierarchical division of labor in the enterprise, a consciously organized social division of labor. Under socialism, money, competitive pricing, and profit-loss accounting would be destroyed.»
Pierson, Christopher (1995). Socialism After Communism: The New Market Socialism. Pennsylvania State Univ Press. p. 96. ISBN978-0-271-01478-4. «At the heart of the market socialist model is the abolition of the large-scale private ownership of capital and its replacement by some form of 'social ownership'. Even the most conservative accounts of market socialism insist that this abolition of large-scale holdings of private capital is essential. This requirement is fully consistent with the market socialists' general claim that the vices of market capitalism lie not with the institutions of the market but with (the consequences of) the private ownership of capital...»

Communist, in spite of the distinction that had been made in the 1840s, was very much less used, and parties in the Marxist tradition took some variant of social and socialist as titles.»

ISBN978-0-87548-449-5. «By 1888, the term 'socialism' was in general use among Marxists, who had dropped 'communism', now considered an old fashioned term meaning the same as 'socialism'. [...] At the turn of the century, Marxists called themselves socialists. [...] The definition of socialism and communism as successive stages was introduced into Marxist theory by Lenin in 1917. [...] the new distinction was helpful to Lenin in defending his party against the traditional Marxist criticism that Russia was too backward for a socialist revolution.»
Williams, Raymond (1983). «Socialism». Keywords: A Vocabulary of Culture and Society (revised edición). Oxford University Press. p. 289. ISBN978-0-19-520469-8. «The decisive distinction between socialist and communist, as in one sense these terms are now ordinarily used, came with the renaming, in 1918, of the Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party (Bolsheviks) as the All-Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks). From that time on, a distinction of socialist from communist, often with supporting definitions such as social democrat or democratic socialist, became widely current, although it is significant that all communist parties, in line with earlier usage, continued to describe themselves as socialist and dedicated to socialism.»

Consultado el 14 de noviembre de 2020. «El socialismo francés ha ejercido la mayor influencia sobre el desarrollo intelectual de Marx, pero de todos los escritores socialistas de Francia es P. J. Proudhon quien más poderosamente influyó en su espíritu. Hasta es evidente que el libro de Proudhon ¿Qué es la propiedad? indujo a Marx a abrazar el socialismo. [...] Marx no solamente había sido influenciado por las ideas económicas de Proudhon, sino que también se sintió influido por las teorías anárquicas del gran socialista francés y en uno de sus trabajos de aquel período combate al Estado en la misma forma que lo hiciera Proudhon».
