Landed property - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Landed property or landed estates is a real estate term that usually refers to a property that generates income for the owner without the owner having to do the actual work of the estate. Landed property was a key element of feudalism, and freed the owner for other tasks, such as government administration, military service, the practice of Law or religious practices. The last large exemplar of the principle of a landed aristocracy as a basis of rule, Russia under the Romanov dynasty, literally died in the Bolshevik Revolution. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Landed_property   (430 words)

[No title] If indeed private property in land is based upon such a universal consent, it evidently becomes extinct from the moment the majority of a society dissent from warranting it. This form of landed property and the piecemeal cultivation necessitated by it not only excludes all appliance of modern agricultural improvements, but simulataneously converts the tiller himself into the most decided enemy of all social progress, and above all, of the nationalization of the land. To nationalize the land and let it out in small plots to individuals or workingmen's societies would, under a middle-class government, only bring about a reckless competition among them, and cause a certain increase of "rent", and thus lend new facilities to the appropriators for feeding upon the producers. eserver.org /marx/1869-landed.property.txt   (859 words)

Marx, Capital, Volume III, Part VI, Chapter 37: Library of Economics and Liberty Landed property is conditioned on the monopolisation of certain portions of the globe by private persons, for the purpose of making these portions the exclusive spheres of their private will and keeping all others away from it. In a systematic treatment of private property in land, which is not included in our plan, this part of the revenue of the land owner would have to be discussed at length. It is true, as we shall see later, that property in land differs from the other kinds of property by the fact that it appears superfluous, and even noxious, at a certain stage of development, even from the point of view of capitalist production. www.econlib.org /library/YPDBooks/Marx/mrxCpC37.html   (7559 words)

Ancient Egypt: Landed property - Types of land, Ownership, conveyance, Leasing Ownership of land was monitored by the administration: transactions were recorded by scribes [2][3], land was surveyed and when circumstances had changed, such as when excessive inundations had obliterated boundary marks, reassigned based on the cadastral surveys. As for his lands, however, which are near to the Southern City and to the court, he shall decree a stay for him of three days, being that which is according to law; (for) he shall hear every petitioner according to this law which is in his hand. Land was often leased to tenants and subtenants, and the conditions of the leases were put in writing. nefertiti.iwebland.com /economy/land.htm   (2456 words)

leo.txt The central ontological importance of landed property, as opposed to other types of property, flows from the fact that without land (or real estate), it is difficult (perhaps impossible) to obtain credit, and without credit it is difficult for nations and regions to develop. Land constitutes the most fundamental type of security, a feature which turns on its non-perishability and on the fact that it cannot be easily stolen, lost, destroyed, or counterfeited. The foundational role of land (or real estate--including buildings) in economic development is dictated also by the fact that all societies and all human activities manifest a spatial organization which varies systematically --in complex, subtle, and hitherto hardly explored ways-- from culture to culture and from age to age. www.geog.buffalo.edu /ncgia/i21/papers/zaibert_prp.html   (1009 words)

[No title] Personal property is the effect of society; and it is as impossible for an individual to acquire personal property without the aid of society, as it is for him to make land originally. All accumulation, therefore, of personal property, beyond what a man's own hands produce, is derived to him by living in society; and he owes on every principle of justice, of gratitude, and of civilization, a part of that accumulation back again to society from whence the whole came. As the inheritors of property must always take up their bonds in four quarterly payments, or sooner if they choose, there will always be numeraire arriving at the bank after the expiration of the first quarter, to exchange for the bank notes that shall be brought in. www.constitution.org /tp/agjustice.txt   (4570 words)

Diversity as Degeneration Gupta explains the overlapping and multiple claims to land and property first by examining the larger relationship between the claims of the state and the cultivators of the village, and second, by investigating various types of property within the village. Second, with the land owned absolutely by the zamindar, there was is a theoretical symmetry between the State's right to "evict" the zamindar and the zamindar's right to evict the cultivator. The distinction between the revenue generating versus the occupational and cultivational aspects of landed property strikes me as a bow to the insight that everyone has a right to earn a livelihood and that this right is so essential that even Kings may not ignore it. www.ithaca.edu /faculty/naeem/retrieving.htm   (6305 words)

Property and Law Property is the right that each citizen has to enjoy and to dispose of the portion of goods that is guaranteed to him by law. It is precisely because property as well as liberty is a right prior to the law that both exist only on condition of respecting the like right of others, and it is the function of the law to see that this limit is respected, which means to recognize and support this very principle. Property, the right to enjoy the fruits of one's labor, the right to work, to develop, to exercise one's faculties, according to one's own understanding, without the state intervening otherwise than by its protective action--this is what is meant by liberty. bastiat.org /en/property_law.html   (5654 words)

Distribution of real property In comparison with the surveys of buildings, the EVS distinctly overrepresents property in the form of one- and two-family houses and condominiums in the old federal Länder, whereas multi-family units are undercovered in the West and East; in the East, this is also true of one- and two-family houses. Furthermore, new additions of households and of residential and landed property in the period from 1993 to 1995 were incorporated in the calculation. The average property values, too, differ substantially: based on the current market value concept, the average value in the West is DM 423,000, in the East it is DM 205,000. www.destatis.de /mve/e/mad199_13.htm   (826 words)

The Land Question When the "sacredness" of property is talked of, it should be remembered that any such sacredness does not belong in the same degree to landed property. The theory that land is property subject to private ownership and control is the foundation of modern society.... The increase in the value of land, arising as it does from the efforts of an entire community, should belong to the community and not to the individual who might hold title. www.henrygeorge.org /land.html   (687 words)

AGRARIAN JUSTICE Every proprietor, therefore, of cultivated lands, owes to the community ground-rent (for I know of no better term to express the idea) for the land which he holds; and it is from this ground-rent that the fund prod in this plan is to issue. Nothing could be more unjust than agrarian law in a country improved by cultivation; for though every man, as an inhabitant of the earth, is a joint proprietor of it in its natural state, it does not follow that he is a joint proprietor of cultivated earth. The superstitious awe, the enslaving reverence, that formerly Surrounded affluence, is passing away in all countries, and leaving the possessor of property to the convulsion of accidents. classicliberal.tripod.com /paine/agjust.html   (4819 words)

Property: Records of the Federal Convention King observed that there might be great danger in requiring landed property as a qualification since it would exclude the monied interest, whose aids may be essential in particular emergencies to the public safety. This must be the case if landed qualifications should be required; few of the mercantile, and scarcely any of the manufacturing class, chusing whilst they continue in business to turn any part of their Stock into landed property. Were he to fix the quantum of property which should be required, he should not think of less than one hundred thousand dollars for the President, half of that sum for each of the Judges, and in like proportion for the members of the Natl. press-pubs.uchicago.edu /founders/documents/v1ch16s16.html   (5144 words)

Thomas Paine / Agrarian Justice, Part 2 And as it is impossible to separate the improvement made by cultivation from the earth itself, upon which that improvement is made, the idea of landed property arose from that inseparable connection; but it is nevertheless true, that it is the value of the improvement, only, and not the earth itself, that is individual property. Every proprietor, therefore, of cultivated lands, owes to the community a ground-rent (for I know of no better term to express the idea) for the land which he holds; and it is from this ground-rent that the fund proposed in this plan is to issue. It is deducible, as well from the nature of the thing as from all the histories transmitted to us, that the idea of landed property commenced with cultivation, and that there was no such thing as landed property before that time. www.cooperativeindividualism.org /paine_agrarianjustice_02.html   (2700 words)

The Abolition of Landed Property   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10) The property in the soil — that original source of all wealth — has become the great problem upon the solution of which depends the future of the working class. While not intending to discuss here all the argument put forward by the advocates of private property in land — jurists, philosophers, and political economists — we shall only state firstly that they disguise the original fact of conquest under the cloak of "natural right". This form of landed property and the piecemeal cultivation necessitated by it not only excludes all appliance of modern agricultural improvements, but simultaneously converts the tiller himself into the most decided enemy of all social progress, and above all, of the nationalization of the land. www.marxists.org /archive/marx/works/1869/12/03.htm   (827 words)

ANARCHISM.net / forum - Landed Property Property is what I say it is when I say it is and no one is going to tell me otherwise. Property is a sovereign individual judgment that cannot be taken away by any other power of will without some form of crime committed against the individual by another individual. This concept of mutual ownership or community property or collective control is an individual concept and this individual concept only becomes a GROUP concept as a function of coincidence or, in fact, coercion (conditioned response). www.anarchism.net /forum/forum_entry.php?id=7472   (702 words)

Social Security Online History Pages Equality of natural property is the subject of this little essay. Every individual in the world is born therein with legitimate claims on a certain kindof property, or its equivalent. But even if that right (of voting) were inherent in property, which I deny, the right of suffrage would still belong to all equally, because, as I have said, all individuals have legitimate birthrights in a certain species of property. www.ssa.gov /history/paine4.html   (6012 words)

[No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10) When Marx first was thinking about the question of modern landed property at the time of the Grundrisse, his idea was that capital posits landed property as something outside it and thereby posits as well wage-labour (cf. Subsequently, I think in 1862 in a letter to Engels, he concluded that modern landed property was actually within capital. And, this is what he tells us explicitly in Vol III, Ch 37 on the first page--- that although the analysis of landed property in its various historical forms is beyond the scope of the book (CAPITAL), it is possible here to look at landed property as encompassed by capital (ie., modern landed property). ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu /cgi-bin/textify.cgi?HTML=9509/0144.html   (429 words)

Neighborhood, Who owns the land? Notions of land held in common, consensus decision-making, and respect for the environment, though considered deviant within Western culture, are neither new nor controversial in traditional indigenous societies. Moreover, while direct physical invasions of private property can be proven worthy of compensation under constitutional law, the less direct financial damages resulting from government restrictions on the use of land are rarely awarded compensation under takings law. As a result, it is the government restriction of land use which has become the central focus of the property-rights debate. www.zmag.org /activism/neighwhoowns.htm   (1041 words)

ANARCHISM.net / forum - Landed Property If the accused is found guilty, then, I get my property back and the accused has to pay the court costs up to and not beyond the guilty person’s ability to produce more than the guilty consumes. The property, however, is known to be held by the owner of the property. If the accused continues to commit crimes and has obviously chosen, him or herself, to disagree with RULE OF LAW, and becomes an out-law, then, the POWER of the JURY does not apply to that person and the default judgment is to look the other way when such people disappear. www.anarchism.net /forum/forum_entry.php?id=7502   (358 words)
