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 also challenges charitable solutions that ignore property rights, urging readers to consider justice as the foundation for real change.
