COMMAND ECONOMY: An economy in which the government uses its coercive powers (such as command and control) to answer the three questions of allocation. This is the real world version of the idealized theoretical pure command economy.

The two most notable command economies of the 20th century were the communist/socialist economic systems of China and the Soviet Union.
