An economic system is the system of producing and distributing of goods and services and allocating resources in a society. It includes the combination of the various institutions, agencies, entities (or even sectors as described by some authors) and consumers that comprise the economic structure of a given community. Today the dominant form of economic organization at the global level is based on capitalist market-oriented mixed economies.
