Talk:Land

The controversial nature of land in economics seems to be palyed down nowadays by profession economists. I am not sure what is the exact citizendium policy in this regard. I started this stub because hiding land "under the skirt of capital" partly explains, I believe, why Western culture lost the effective awareness of the importance of environment during most part of the twentieth century. -- Janos Abel 14:03, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

Property

Interesting topic. But it seems to me that "land" per se is meaningless without the notion of private property. After all, all kinds of cultures have lived on, moved through, and gained food from "land," but the notion of private property is comparatively a recent one in most areas of the world (particularly I am thinking of the Americas, Australia, and much of Africa and the Pacific). Seems as though some discussion of this is in order. Also, the article would read better if organized into longer, developed paragraphs, I feel. Good luck with this!
