 | | The term "Communist state" originated in the West from the fact that most of such states are or were run by Communist parties, the remainder being run by soviets. |
 | | Most of these states called themselves socialist, such as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, since in Marxist political theory, socialism is the intermediate stage in reaching communism. |
 | | Libertarian socialists and communists, Trotskyists, left communists and anarchists often use terms such as "state socialism", "denegerated workers' states", "state capitalism" or "bureaucratic collectivism". |
