What is Property?
An Inquiry into the Principle of Right and of Government
“What Is Property?” by Pierre-Joseph Proudhon is a foundational work in political philosophy, challenging conventional notions of ownership and advocating for social equality. Published in 1840, it sparked debates on property rights and economic justice.
Description
In “What Is Property?” Pierre-Joseph Proudhon presents a bold critique of the institution of private property, arguing that it is inherently exploitative and unjust. Proudhon asserts that property ownership leads to inequality and oppression, as those who own property exploit the labor of others for their own gain.
Through rigorous philosophical analysis and historical examples, Proudhon challenges the prevailing assumptions about property rights and economic relations. His provocative ideas sparked widespread debate and controversy, influencing subsequent generations of political thinkers and activists.
Proudhon’s critique of private property continues to inspire movements for social change and calls for alternative economic systems that prioritize the well-being of all individuals over the accumulation of wealth by a privileged few.
