A democratic political system is compatible with any economic system that the majority of the voters like. At the present time we have no pure capitalist systems, we have mixed systems, which include some elements of the free market, and some elements of socialism. Even so, the economy of the US is largely capitalist in nature, and the political system is democratic. These may not be perfectly compatible, but they have functioned together for over 200 years.

Are communism and capitalism considered to be parties?

They are not considered to be parties. Capitalism is an economic system, Communism is a political ideology that aims for a post-capitalist economic system. There are Communist parties, which claim to want to build a communist system eventually. There are no parties with the name capitalist, because we currently live in a capitalist society. Basically, all political parties are capitalist - they are all parties of capitalism.


Does the economic system in place necessarily determine what political system is used?

Not necessarily, you can have a capitalist economic system under an authoritarian regime as well as under a democratic regime. Some forms of economy, like central planning, occur much more easily under an authoritarian system than a more democratic one, but it is not wholly impossible for a democratic regime to embrace central planning.
