The Unearned Increment

Bag om The Unearned Increment

The Unearned Increment: Or Reaping Without Sowing is a book written by William Harbutt Dawson, first published in 1890. The book is a critical analysis of the concept of unearned increment, which refers to the increase in the value of land due to external factors such as population growth, economic development, and public infrastructure projects. Dawson argues that the unearned increment is a form of exploitation, where landowners profit from the work of others without contributing anything themselves. He suggests that the unearned increment should be taxed, and the revenue used for public purposes such as education, healthcare, and social welfare. The book also discusses the history of land ownership and land reform movements, and the political and economic implications of the unearned increment. The Unearned Increment: Or Reaping Without Sowing is a seminal work in the field of land economics and has influenced debates on land reform and taxation for over a century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
