Summary
Details

""The Right of Property and the Ownership of Land"" delves into the intricate relationship between individual liberties and the control of resources, especially land. Authored by William Torrey Harris, a prominent figure in American education and philosophy, this work, originally presented before the American Social Science Association, offers a compelling perspective on property rights within the framework of late 19th-century socio-political thought. Harris explores the philosophical underpinnings of ownership, examining its implications for individual autonomy and societal progress.

This treatise not only provides insights into the historical debates surrounding land tenure and economic justice but also invites contemporary readers to reconsider the enduring relevance of these discussions. Its historical context and thoughtful analysis make it a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the foundations of property law and its ongoing influence on modern society.
