Who owns the property in a centrally planned economy?

It is not necessarily fixed as to who has titular ownership of capital in a planned/command economy. Ownership of capital can reside in either private entrepreneurs or in government-owned industries; a number of planned/command economies allowed for a degree of private property ownership. However, the fundamental basis of control, such as decisions about what to produce and the quantity to produce, are vested exclusively in the government. In planned/command economies, the government can literally order private factories to make products that do not have a large market desirability and to avoid producing products that have large demand.


What are the sources of economies of scale?

The economies of scale attainable from large scale production fall into two categories. Internal and External.


What would cause a resurgence of planned economies?

Planned economies rely on centralized government to control all or most factors of production and to make all or most production and allocation decisions. A market economy is an economy in which individuals control production and allocation decisions through supply and demand. Planned economies appeal to people as a solution to a large amount of poverty. They promise a high rate of growth in economic prosperity, an improving quality of life, and a different distribution of wealth than market economies. When the economy fails to improve, and quality of life in the country fails to improve at the pace of market economies, the government tends to relax its control and a market economy develops. Previously planned economies are controlled by oppressive and unaccountable politicians who eventually lose power. If an economy in a nation is characterized by a large number of people in extreme poverty and a high unemployment rate, a planned economy could be used to bring order and to stimulate productivity. Former Soviet Union disbanded due to food shortages in their planned economy, showing poor planning by their leaders. Theoretically in a market economy, when a shortage of a good arises, the prices of that good will rise giving an incentive to entrepreneurial business people to produce more of that product so they can reap the increased profits. Recently, a drought killed a large amount of corn crop, driving the price of beef and other foods up. If there were a severe drought enough to where there is not enough water to grow crops and food needs to be rationed carefully, the government may move towards a planned economy. America has a mix between market and planned economies, in that some economic activity is subsidized while some businesses have regulations. For example, when Enron caused a spike in energy prices beyond a reasonable amount in California, the government forced the company to lower its price. Being the only option for energy needs in areas where Enron provided service, a natural monopoly, Enron could have in a true market economy charged as much as they wanted for electricity and all those involved would have taken great profits.
