Democratic socialism is defined as having a socialist economy in which the means of production are socially and collectively owned or controlled, alongside a democratic political system of government. For Hain, this authoritarian and democratic divide is more important than that between reformists and revolutionaries.

Explanation:
The Soviet Union was very powerful for most of the 20th century. From political to military and economic strength.But the economy of the Soviet Union would eventually collapse, due to certain reforms to decentralise the economy.
The Soviet Union's economy was controlled totally by the government. The communist party coordinated the planning of production, distribution and institution of regulations and economic targets. The economy had a rapid growth at first but as the economy became increasingly complex, the average GNP growth started slowing.
Reforms like the sovnarkhoz, implemented in the late 1950s attempted to decentralise economic control. Restructuring reforms called the porestroika were also implemented but these could not compete at the global stage and therefore failed.
I’ll give you a few to choose from:
-There were plenty of jobs (but low-paying) in America
-Gold Rush
-America had an open door policy (at least until the immigration act)
-Social mobility was possible (unlike restrictive social classes in England)
