communal ownership
Group holds title
Communal ownership is a system where property or resources belong collectively to a group rather than to individuals.
The group might be a village, a cooperative, a religious community, or the state.
The kibbutz operated on principles of communal ownership.
The concept contrasts with private ownership, where individuals hold exclusive rights to property.
