Well for communism to fail it first has to be implemented.

It was attempted, wasn't able to start, and was then used as an excuse for genocidal maniacs.

That's even worse.

That seems more a problem with the people to lead it rather than a problem with the system itself.

It's easier to manipulate a population with the promises of communism. Its less a system and more an idea. A single word to describe a utopia that will never happen. There's a million ways to describe what communism is..yet no one can successfully develop a system that implements it's fundamental ideas.

Close, but no cigar.
They're owned by India though.
The region is given almost complete sovereignty by India.

You can manipulate any under-educated, impoverished, and mistreated population with a promise that you will improve their lives. Communism is only easier to manipulate people with because people not having their basic needs met are pretty common.

Which can have systems based off it.

It doesn't describe a utopia, it describes an a set of socioeconomic principles geared towards making people as equal as possible.

I'm sure there are just as many ways to describe every other economic system thought up.

I agree with the last bit because right now we can't implement Communism successfully due to human nature. However, I think it could be implemented when/if technology devolopes to a point where humans are largely unnecessary in production of goods and services.
