Marxism is a good foundation for analyzing the problem of capitalist business models, and aspiring for egalitarian society. It is, however, not a self-sufficient system. It is a philosophical development within Western traditions that are founded on Christian principles of reverence for the Supreme Creator, and the teachings of mutual respect and encouragement, along with various psychological components that are part of healthy, dynamic, and socially supportive community development. Joyce Rothschild wrote a 2009 paper in American Behavioral Scientist "Worker Co-operatives and Social Enterprise" and Ethan Miller has written on the comprehensive and diverse components of community development in Solidarity Economics.
