The removal of capitalism and its replacement with socialism and communism as a lower and a higher phase of a just, democratic and human society, figures as the junior opposition KSCM's goal in the report its central committee is to submit to the party's upcoming national congress.

It says the time has come for the society of global capitalism, which secures welfare for a minority of people at the cost of the poverty of the others, to leave the scene before its effects of decay could inflict irreversible damage. The only difference between the KSCM and the KSM's formulations rests in the method they want to achieve the goal. While the KSM wants to change the social system through a revolution, the KSCM speaks about an evolutionary change, on whose necessity it wants to persuade people. The court decided to dissolve the KSM, an extra-parliamentary group, mainly over its programme formulation saying the KSM sides with the efforts to overcome capitalism by means of a revolution and to establish economic and social conditions for the building of socialism as the first phase on the path to the creation of the communist society, the building of which is the [KSM's] final goal. This is to be attained by the removal of private ownership of production means and its replacement with common ownership, and by the introduction of socialist democracy. The KSCM's report uses a softer formulation. "We claim the right to seek, using democratic and human methods, a change of the social system, which we consider a basic human right and a historical necessity," the report says. It condemns "the hitherto crimes of capitalism" and says that capitalism "threatens the civilisation on the planet and prevents the development of society and mankind." In its explanation of the dissolution of the KSM a few months ago, the court said the Czech Republic is a democratic, law-abiding state based on respect for citizens' rights and freedoms. Under the constitution, any change in the essential principles of the democratic state is inadmissible. The goals the KSM declares are aimed to change the whole society and its basic economic conditions, the court said.
