Henry George on Property Rights: Reply to John Pullen

Author

  • Kris Feder

Abstract

John Pullen argues that Henry George's proposal to “make land common property” is inconsistent with his proposal to tax rent. This reply argues that George's two formulations are consistent, and that Pullen has confused common property with state property. On the other hand, Pullen's conception of property as composed of a “basket of rights” focuses attention on the question of whether, as trustee of the common property, a Georgist regime should be understood to have certain rights (and obligations) to constrain private land use decisions.
