not an expert on the subject, but no I don't think any of those are right. also, all of these concepts are more complicated than what you can summarize about them in a single sentence.

Capitalism: to let the market be free, so that it can function as a decision making process

Socialism: to attempt to control the market, so that we can (supposedly) minimize wealth inequality, or mitigate other problems that can occur (this has problems if taken too far, because the decision making process that capitalism provides cannot currently be emulated)

Communism: oversimplified, it's just authoritarian extreme socialism.

Statism: I don't know what statism is. reading, it just seems to mean the position that you think there should be some form of government; opposite of anarchism.
