"Socialism is bookkeeping", as Vladimir Lenin used to say. If you think that late-stage megacorp capitalism is pathologically bureaucratic (which it sometimes is), refresh your memory of how the Soviet bloc handled that.
I would say that these pathologies come from the lack of trust, and thus the need to surveil and control. The problem of trust does not usually occur in a small team. It does not usually occur in a commune of like-minded people, too. It's not about the economy and property rights, it's about communication and game theory.
