Henry George og Højskolen by Henry George
Mangler - Bib
Del af udgivelsen: 4 taler: Moses, Dit rige komme, Du skal ikke stjæle - oh Jordrente-læren
An incredibly well-written book. Although I disagree with the author's conclusions, and Marx himself found them laughable, Henry George is a fantastic writer and his arguments against Malthus are an important read.
Highly ambitious and inventive for its time and, perhaps, even for our time. Merits consideration by anyone who cares about income inequality and land monopoly. I don't quite buy that a land value tax will cure as many ills as George does, but there is no questioning the ethical foundation.
