Generalising from a couple of cases (republic, capitalism)  is not much 
better than generalising from a single example.  But perhaps the area of 
political science (plus socio-economic whatever) is particularly subject to 
this sort of definitional snarl.  Anyway, 'definition of capitalism' sounds 
like an essay topic to me.
