Economic reform · Late 19th century onward

Georgism

Distinguishes wealth people produce from the rental value of land. Taxing land value can fund public purposes while leaving stronger incentives for labor, enterprise, and improvement.

Foundational doctrines

Disagreement and variation

Georgists dispute implementation and the sufficiency of land taxation; general support for redistribution does not establish this specific view of land rent. A land-rent doctrine cannot be reliably inferred from general redistribution questions; specific land questions are necessary.
