Our Land And Land Policy: Speeches, Lectures, And Miscellaneous Writings (1902)

By Henry George

Book Overview

""Our Land And Land Policy"" is a collection of speeches, lectures, and miscellaneous writings by the American political economist and social reformer, George Henry, originally published in 1902. The book is a comprehensive exploration of land policy and its implications for economic and social justice. Henry argues that the unequal distribution of land ownership is the root cause of poverty, inequality, and social unrest. He advocates for the implementation of a single tax system, in which the value of land is taxed instead of labor and capital, as a means of promoting economic efficiency and social welfare. The book also includes Henry's critiques of contemporary economic and political theories, as well as his proposals for reforms in education, labor, and social welfare. Overall, ""Our Land And Land Policy"" is a seminal work in the history of American economic thought and a call to action for those seeking to create a more just and equitable society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
