Property as a Guarantor of Liberty

In: Property Rights and the Limits of Democracy

Author

Listed:
  • James M. Buchanan

Abstract

Property rights lie at the heart of the economic success of any economy and the extent to which its citizens enjoy economic freedom. At a time when Eastern Europe is breaking free from the yoke of collectivist–socialist ideas, this book presents essays by four political economists evaluating a range of feasible reforms intended to breathe new life into constitutional republicanism.
