The basis of socio-economic relations in society is the dominant form of ownership. Property relations have a direct impact on politics and economics. There are several types of property.
It is customary to call property a historically conditioned form of appropriation of material goods by people. It is customary to classify it into private and public. Private property is divided into three main forms. This refers to single, partnership and corporate forms of ownership.
As for single property, it is characterized by the fact that an individual or legal entity is able to realize all property relations. We are talking about farms and similar producers.
Partnership property implies the pooling of capital of individuals or legal entities for the subsequent implementation of common business activities. These are enterprises that were formed on the basis of the share contributions of the founders. Equity contributions are often means of production, money, material values and innovative ideas.
Corporate ownership should be formed on the basis of the functioning of capital. By the way, the capital is formed by the free sale of shares. It turns out that the owner of the shares is the owner of the capital of the joint stock company.
Public property can be classified into three main forms - collective, state and public. Collective property is distributed among the employees of the enterprise collective. The property of all members of society should be called state property. But the implementation of the appropriation of such property is carried out directly by the state apparatus.
Municipal property, along with state property, is one of the main forms of ownership. It is administered by cities, towns and other administrative-territorial units. Objects of municipal property are considered to be non-residential premises, housing stock, property of local government bodies. Public property presupposes the ownership of the public domain to each individual. By the way, the Russian Constitution reliably protects all of the above forms of ownership.
Other forms of ownership include individual, cooperative and joint-stock ownership. The form of individual property is designed to concentrate in one subject such features as labor, disposal and management of income. In Russia, traders, doctors, lawyers, etc. are considered to be individual owners.
The form of cooperative ownership is based on the association of individual owners. Any member of the cooperative has certain rights in the distribution of income. Shareholding is a group of private property that is formed through the issue and sale of securities.
