Abstract:
The theory, that injurious consequences result to the community
from excessive competition for land, is one that has many supporters
at the present time; and as the choice of measures for better
regulating the relation of landlord and tenant depends on the
general decision of this important question, it cannot be uninteresting
to consider what the principles of economic science teach us
are the real effects of unrestrained competition on the knowledge
and industry employed in the cultivation of the soil.
