The big comparison would be between overthrowing capitalism vs reforming capitalism:

- Revolutionary socialists advocate for a removal of the capitalist system, replacing it with collective ownership and socialist economics. (Marx/Engels)
- Social democrats advocate for a gradual replacement of capitalism built upon Keynesian economics that provides state welfare. (Webb/Crosland)
- Third Way advocates for a Neo-liberal economy that provides welfare programmes, however capitalism should not be replaced. (Giddens)

Therefore there is agreement between revolutionary socialists and social democrats over the need to remove capitalism, but the Third Way disagrees with this idea and believes that capitalism should be reformed.

Hope this helps!

Hello

I would not stress for starters. I would also recommend that you do your own research as well. I would also be making some short brief notes. Another easy way to prepare is to use any information (in your own original words) that you have found online. And make sure that you have checked for any spelling errors as well but do not worry as these are very easy to correct. I would also type up a short comparison, introduction, and a ending. If you are using a computer or laptop then it is a good idea to make sure to divide your entire essay into paragraphs in order to make it much easier on the reader. When typing or writing, do remember to stay focused on your essay at all times. The whole essay needs to make sense completely.
There is no point in writing up a essay that does not make sense. I would strongly advise you to take frequent breaks and drink some water. I would also condense your essay. If you can omit any irrelevant facts do so. Good luck.
