This article is a reassessment of the "new property doctrine" of Charles A. Reich. Special attention is paid to the proposal that welfare rights should be converted into property rights. It is argued that this proposal is defensible, but only if supplemented by a more organic concept of property such as that found in the works of the original theorists of the welfare state, the Edwardian New Liberals
