Compare and contrast the goals of command and mixed market economies. Why are there many more mixed market economies than command economies in the world today?

When we look at the organizations of the economic activity on the one side we would have market economics and on the distant other the command economics. Firstly, market economics is as the name imply influenced by the market, the supply and demand reign supreme and the manufacturers and providers respond to the demands of the market. The command economics on the other hand is determined by the government. It is the government that dictates what, how many and at what price the goods are to be produced and sold. Many economies are mixed because they have to balance the free market with some sort of government control in order to protect the consumers and to make the economy successful.
