-'''Collectivism''' as a belief can be one of two things. The first is the belief that [[capital (economics)|capital]] and land should be owned by the group and not by the individual. The second is that the good of the group is more important than the good of the individual - or, alternatively, that the individual serves his own interests by serving the group's interests, as a bee ultimately serves its own self by serving its hive. Collectivism in this sense is closely associated with [[altruism]]. Varieties of collectivism are distinguished in part by which group they mean, for example national, racial, religious, economic class, or all of humanity.

-'''Collectivism''' can also be a practice that realizes collectivist belief.

-Some political collectivists hold that different groups have competing interests, and that the [[individual]]'s interests and characteristics are in fact tied up with the interests and characteristics of his or her group. Or in other words, that the individual serves his real interests by serving his group's interests. Differences between groups are considered significant, while differences between [[individual]]s within groups, to the extent that they are acknowledged at all, are considered unimportant.  This line of reasoning, anti-collectivists allege, often leads to the suppression of [[individual right]]s, which are sacrificed for the alleged good of the group.
-Other political collectivists emphasize the notions of equality and solidarity, and see all human beings as part of the same group, with common interests. They maintain that competition and rivalry between [[individual]]s or smaller groups is overall counter-productive or detrimental, and should therefore be replaced with some form of co-operation. Anti-collectivists make the same objections to this form of collectivism as to the previous one, while collectivists defend their views by arguing that the "common good" is only the sum of the "individual good" of every member of the group, and that collectivism therefore benefits the [[individual]].
