Henry George and the Classical Scientific Research Program: The Economics of Republican Millennialism
Henry George's classicism was evident in his acceptance of "hard core" assumptions inherent in classical economic analysis, notably that rational self-interested behavior exercise in competitive markets maximized economic welfare. However, George's "stage theory," the "Law of Human Progress," led him to reject the classical nexus between social and economic welfare. The emergence of an exchange economy improved efficiency and economic welfare, bu…
Henry George and the Classical Scientific Research Program: George's Modification of It and His Real Significance for Future Generations
Henry George's revision of classical economics was based on a new "hard core" assumption linking efficiency, equity, and social welfare to a revised concept of property rights in land. However, rather than create new core supporting "protective belt" theories, George either accepted or, when necessary, modified existing classical theories especially those which threatened his new hard core, for example, classical "wages-fund" theory. Consequently…

Henry George's Theory of State's Agenda: The Origins of His Ideas on Economic Policy in Adam Smith's Moral Theory
The tension between Henry George's reformism and his laissezfaire liberalism was resolved through a system of natural liberty George derived from the relation between Adam Smith's ethics and economics. Crucial for George's nonutilitarian philosophy of government was the interdependence between the moral sense (sympathy) and the prevailing socioeconomic order. In the appropriate institutional environment, the role of the government was diminished …
Henry George the Classical Model and Technological Change: The Ignored Alternative to the Single Tax in Progress and Poverty
Henry George's vision of land monopolization as the source of growing rentier income was compatible with all elements in the predominant Ricardian-Millian classical distribution model except the rent-reducing effects of technological change and Malthusian population growth as the catalyst underlying income distribution. Since George also rejected Malthusianism on ethical and philosophical grounds, his analysis focused on the autonomous nature of …

The Liberalization of The Scholastic Theory of Socio-Economic Policy
It has been ten years since the publication of Pope John XXIII's Mater et Magistra. Once a subject of controversy, interest in the encyclical has declined in recent years, preempted, perhaps, by the com? plexity and urgency of other problems facing the Roman Catholic Church. Nevertheless, John's encyclical, a major turning point in the development of scholastic or Roman Catholic socio-economic thought, still raises many questions concerning futur…
