Yay Capitalism!

Capitalism: Capitalism is a political and economic system of governance in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state. It is the opposite of communism. Crime and punishment showed a capitalist society as evil, with little to no positive aspects.  Throughout the novel, Doystoyetsky continuously attacks the idea of a capitalist society, and shows affection to  society with more communist-like qualities. This is a major theme in a lot of Russian
literature.
