Synopsis

Private land ownership shapes work and opportunity, and this book argues for a just response.

The Labour Question offers a concise look at how ownership of land affects wages, poverty, and social policy. It presents a case for reform rooted in the idea that land, not just labor, must be part of a fair economy. The text surveys the core ideas behind Henry George’s program, explaining why private land ownership is at the heart of economic inequality. It argues that improvements and inventions increase overall prosperity, but the benefits often flow to landowners rather than workers. It also challenges charitable solutions that ignore property rights, urging readers to consider justice as the foundation for real change.

  • Understand how land ownership is linked to wages and living standards.
  • Learn why some traditional remedies may fail to address the root causes of poverty.
  • Explore arguments for a justice-based approach to land and resources.
  • See how economic theory meets moral questions about rights and equality.
Ideal for readers seeking a clear, accessible discussion of economic justice, land reform, and the relationship between property and labor.
