This paper gives a day-by-day summary of the tour, followed by a commentary on some of the arguments used by George to support land-value taxation, and on some of the objections raised against him; and discusses whether these arguments and objections are relevant to the question of land prices and land taxation in Australia today. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | The 20th Conference of the History of Economic Thought Society of Australia, University of Queensland, Australia, 11-13 July, 2007 | Source of Publication: | Regarding the Past: Proceedings of the 20th Conference of the History of Economic Thought Society of Australia, p. 187-199 | Publisher: | University of Queensland | Place of Publication: | Brisbane, Australia | Field of Research (FOR): | 140101 History of Economic Thought | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO): | 910105 Fiscal Policy | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Other Links: | http://www.uq.edu.au/economics/hetsa/Pullen%20final.pdf http://www.hetsa.org.au/ http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/33988110 |
