Exam Paper, Political Theory: Is there a false dichotomy between socialism and capitalism?

In this exam paper, I examined logical inconsistencies within the debate between capitalist and socialist scholars. I focused my argument on Milton Friedman’s defence of capitalism and Gerald E. Cohen’s defence of socialism.

I argued that it does not make sense to compare capitalism with socialism because, as theories, they are theories which serve entirely different purposes. I focused this argument to Cohen and Milton to keep this argument more grounded and comprehensible.
