Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum

Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'command', derived from the Latin 'commandare' (to enjoin, entrust) via Old French, and 'economy', from the Greek 'oikonomia' (household management). It emerged in the mid-20th century during the Cold War era to describe centrally planned socialist and communist economic systems where production, investment, prices, and incomes are determined centrally by a government.
