Collectivism
• Considering the needs of a group, or the
common good, to be more important then
an individual in the group.
• Collective- A group of people.
• It can refer to a family, nation, race, or any
group of people.
Human Interdependence
• Collectivism is based on the idea that all
humans are dependent on each other to
have society work.
• We need everybody, and their respective
talents, for society to function effectively.
• People are not independent, but get
fulfillment from human interaction.
An Example:
• In Canada we all pay employment
insurance.
• Unless you loose your job, you may never
access this.
• What would an Individualist argue?
• What would a collectivist argue?
Early Collectivist
• Most early humans were collectivist.
• Due to the amount of work needed for
tasks without modern technology, people
had to work together.
Political Collectivism
• Rousseau was one of the earliest collectivist.
• His book “the Social Contract” explains how
each individual is responsible to the group.
• Each individual gives up their own interest for
the will of society.
• All rules apply equally to everybody.
• These ideas have become the basic
foundations for ideologies such as Socialism
and Communism.
Karl Marx
• 1848 political philosopher
published the communist
manifesto.
• Marx, like Rousseau, felt that
capitalism left people poor and a
small segment of the population
rich.
• Marx felt that society should
share all property and resources
for the common good.
Socialism and Communism
• Ideology in which private
property and the distribution
of income controlled by
everyone.
• equal access to resources for
all individuals.
• socialists share the view that
capitalism unfairly
concentrates power and
wealth among a small
segment of society.
Collective Interest
• Can be thought of as a thought or idea that
all members of the group follow in order to
benefit the group.
Collective Interest
• These ideas still work in our society.
• Our action are often determined on what is
best for society over just one person.
• We listen to the majority or the interest of
the majority.
Collective responsibility
• As well as society having collective interest,
we also have collective responsibility.
• Unions will look after the welfare of their
workers, they must also ensure that
workers do the best work.
• A Group may be rewarded or punished for
an individuals actions.
Collective Responsibility
• An Environmentalist perspective:
• If we don’t start recycling and taking care of
our planet in Canada the rest of the world
will suffer, as will the children of the future.
Collectivism in North Korea
• Much different then Canada’s liberal
democracy.
• North Korea is a communist dictatorship.
• Let’s talk about its history.
North Korea
• The state was run by Kim il-sung from 1948
until 1994.
• His son Kim Jong-il has been in control
since.
• They have no taxes and the monthly
income in an average of $47.00.
• They have little to no trade with the outside
world.
North Korea
• Communication with other countries is not
permitted.
• The government owns and filters all media
that is not supportive.
• It is illegal to speak up against the
president.
The Korean War
• a military conflict between
North Korea and South
Korea
• June 25, 1950, pausing
on July 27, 1953.
• The conflict arose from
the attempts of the two
Korean powers to re-unify
• A fight between the US
and China/Russia.

17–54 in the regular armed forces.
Collective Responsibility

state.
• It is illegal to work against, or support
movements, against the state.
Collectivism and Economic
• Industrialization led to great wealth.
• But, workers were not wealthy.
• This, along with the ideas of Marx, led to
collectivism.
Private Property
• The right to own property is key to
individualism.
• However, in collectivist society people
value public property.
• The idea that each person should have
economic equality.
• Workers should collectively own a factory.
Collectivist Argue
• What might a collectivist argue about Public
Property?
• What might an individualist argue?
In Canada…
• We all have private property.
• But, to a lesser extent we also have
collective property.
• The government owns massive lands
known as Crown Lands.
• The sale or rental of these lands gives
money back to the Canadian people.
• We also have crown corporations.
That’s it we are done…
