Which of the following does NOT describe socialism? no private property rights redistribution of wealth can be democratic centralized control of economic power

**Can be democratic** does NOT describe socialism in its pure, theoretical form. While some democratic countries incorporate socialist principles (like social safety nets), true socialism, particularly in its Marxist-Leninist interpretations, advocates for the eventual withering away of the state and centralized control of the means of production by the working class, not through traditional representative democracy. It's important to distinguish between democratic socialism (which operates within a democratic framework) and socialism as a theoretical economic system.
