Private Property Gives Way to the Public Good

Colin Read

Chapter 20 in The Rise and Fall of an Economic Empire, 2010, pp 194-199 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract We make no small point of the tendency of an economic empire to divert its attention away from private production and toward the more ethereal production of public goods. When governments fall into this trap, they, too, contribute to consumerism.
