collective ownership
Group holds title
Collective ownership is a system where property or resources belong to a group rather than individuals or the state.
The group might be workers who own their factory, residents who share land, or members of a cooperative.
The farm operates under collective ownership, with decisions made by vote.
The term appears in discussions of socialism, cooperatives, and indigenous land rights.
