When you say "describe," do you mean "describe" in the
sense of "capitalist" or "not-capitalist"?

This is not a useful way of proceeding.

What about Venezuela?  capitalist or not?  Cuba?
China?  How about further out on the periphery:
Afghanistan?  Sudan?

You might claim to reject "definitional" notions of
capitalism, but posing this sort of "how would you
describe x" question is still within that sort of
logic.
