economic democracy

A socioeconomic philosophy that seeks to equalize decision-making power by giving ownership of businesses to the workers that run them. Allegedly, this will even out the distribution of wealth by shifting power from the minority (corporations) and put it in the hands of the majority (the people). Society will then democratically be able to choose the level of resources allocated to businesses.
