Pluralist_commonwealth
|
The term pluralist commonwealth refers to a systemic model of wealth democratization supported and facilitated by a variety of different institutional forms . Political economist and historian Gar Alperovitz is generally credited for the development this model as a way to resolve socio-economic problems associated with corporate capitalism and traditional state socialism . Expanding upon proposals that focus more narrowly on state - versus worker-ownership or state - versus self-managed enterprises , this `` pluralist '' approach involves large-scale public ownership of corporate equity , worker-owned and community-benefitting enterprises , Community Development Corporations , nonprofit corporations and enterprising state and local public agencies . According to Waheed Hussain : `` A pluralist commonwealth is a free-market society in which the economic returns on productive assets improve the lives of large communities of individuals , rather than a narrow elite .

Le_Corbusier_in_the_USSR
|
Le Corbusier had a short relationship with the Soviet Union , starting with his first trip to Moscow in 1928 , and ending with the rejection of his proposal for the Palace of the Soviets in 1932 . Nevertheless , the short-lived relationship had consequences that went beyond Le Corbusier 's time in the USSR . Before his trip to Moscow , Le Corbusier was already an influential figure within the Soviet field of architecture . In 1922 , Moisei Ginzburg , founder of the Constructivist movement , published materials from Le Corbusier 's `` Towards a New Architecture , '' and in 1924 published his own book , similar to Le Corbusier 's , titled Style and Epoch , which became to a central text to the Constructivist movement . Likewise , Corbusier 's projects were frequently published and analyzed as examples for the young generation of Soviet architects to use as inspiration . When Le Corbusier died in 1965 , the official newspaper of the Soviet Union , Pravda , stated in its obituary , `` Modern architecture has lost its greatest master . '' This statement suggests the importance of Le Corbusier 's architecture and urbanism in the Soviet Union .
