Georgism, as stated, 19th c.-present
19th Century · stated scope
Georgism is an economic school of thought centered on the proposal that land value, arising from natural and social conditions rather than individual labor, should be taxed as the primary or sole source of public revenue. It originated in the United States in the late 19th century, developed from the writings of Henry George, particularly his 1879 work Progress and Poverty. The school is principally associated with the land value tax as a fiscal instrument and with the distinction between land rent and returns to labor or capital.
