  • The Last Tax: Henry George and the Social Politics of Land Reform in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era
    The Last Tax: Henry George and the Social Politics of Land Reform in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era A Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Department of History Michael Willrich, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Alexandra Wagner Lough August 2013 This dissertation, directed and approved by Alexandra Wagner Lough’s Committee, has been accepted and approved by the Faculty of Brandeis University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of: DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Malcolm Watson, Dean Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertation Committee: Michael Willrich, Department of History Mark Hulliung, Department of History Daniel T. Rodgers, Department of History, Princeton University Copyright 2013 Alexandra Wagner Lough Doctor of Philosophy Acknowledgments This project properly began in 2004 when I was an undergraduate at the University of Pacific in Stockton, California and decided to write a history thesis on Henry George. As such, it seems fitting to begin by thanking my two favorite professors at Pacific, Caroline Cox and Robert Benedetti. Their work inspired my own and their encouragement and advice led me to pursue graduate work in history at Brandeis University. I am forever grateful for their support. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been admitted into the Ph.D. program in American History at Brandeis. Not only have I received top-notch instruction from brilliant faculty, but I also have received generous funding. I want to extend my gratitude to Rose and Irving Crown and the Crown family for the fellowship that financed my graduate education.

Addressing his colleagues who were seeking to dismantle the income tax laws created during the Civil War, Sherman eloquently explained why the direct national tax on personal and corporate incomes ought to remain a central part of the post-Civil-War fiscal order.

  • Classical Economics As a Stratagem Against Henry George Mason Gaffney
    Neo-classical Economics as a Stratagem against Henry George Mason Gaffney 1 eoclassical economics is the idiom of most economic discourse today. It is the paradigm that bends the twigs of young minds. Then it confines the florescence of older ones, like chicken-wire shaping a topiary. It took form about a hundred years ago, when Henry George and his reform proposals were a clear and present political danger and challenge to the landed and intellectual establishments of the world. Few people realize to what degree the founders ofNeo-classical economics changed the discipline for the express purpose of deflecting George and frustrating future students seeking to follow his arguments. The strategem was semantic: to destroy the very words in which he expressed himself. Simon Patten expounded it succinctly. "Nothing pleases a ...singletaxer better than ...touse the well-known economic theories ...[therefore]economic doctrine must be recast" (Patten, 1908: 219; Collier, 1979: 270).' George believed economists were recasting the discipline to refute him. He states so, as though in the third person, in his posthumously published book, The Science ofPoliticalEconomy(George, 1898:200-209). George's self-importance was immodest, it is true. However, immodesty may be objectivity, as many great talents from Frank Lloyd Wright to Muhammed Ali and Frank Sinatra have displayed. George had good reasons, which we are to demonstrate. George's view may even strike some as paranoid. That was this writer's first impression, many years ago. I have changed my view, however, after learning more about the period, the literature, and later events. Having taken shape in the I 880-l890s, Neo-Classical Economics 29 30 The Corruption of Economics (henceforth NCE) remained remarkably static.

  • The Paradoxes of Political Parties in American Constitutional Development
    Prepared by Richard J. Hardy for the German-American Conference Sponsored by the Center for Civic Education Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana—March 5, 2011 The Paradoxes of Political Parties in American Constitutional Development Richard J. (Rick) Hardy Professor of Political Science Western Illinois University “No America without democracy, no democracy without politics, no politics without parties, no parties without compromise and moderation.” –Clinton Rossiter1 It is impossible to comprehend the workings of the United States constitutional system without a firm grasp of American political parties. A political party is a group of people with shared interests or principles that are organized to nominate candidates for public office in order to win elections, control government and set public policy.2 Yet, American political parties often defy simple explanations. They are complex, multi-faceted organizations with varying functions and ever- changing personnel, perspectives and positions on public policies. And attempts to analyze political parties are reminiscent of John Godfrey Saxe’s 19th century parable of the “Blind Men of Hindustan” feeling an elephant.3 One blind man felt the behemoth’s side and called it a wall, another touched its trunk and declared it a snake, while another felt a tusk and proclaimed it a spear. Like the proverbial blind men of Hindustan, close scholars of the American constitutional system often “see” political parties from different vantages. Political parties have been analyzed in terms of elections, governmental organizations, and positions on issues. Many scholars concentrate on the respective parties’ leaders, while others study their identifiers or voters at the grassroots level. Some contend that parties have become too powerful, while others believe parties need to be strengthened and more responsible.4 American citizens, too, maintain conflicting views of political parties.

  • Land and Liberty: Henry George, the Single Tax Movement, and the Origins of 20Th Century Liberalism
    Land and Liberty: Henry George, the Single Tax Movement, and the Origins of 20 th Century Liberalism A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In History By Christopher William England, B.A. Washington, DC August 25 th , 2015 Copyright 2015 by Christopher England All Rights Reserved [ii] Land and Liberty: Henry George, the Single Tax Movement, and the Origins of 20 th Century Liberalism Christopher William England, B.A. Dissertation Adviser: Michael Kazin, Ph.D. ABSTRACT In the 1880s, Henry George rose to fame with a series of best-selling books that proposed a social state funded by revenue from a single tax on land. Many historians have described his dramatic race for mayor of New York on a Labor Party ticket in 1886. Few, however, have written about the relationship between George, who died in 1897, and his campaign manager, Tom Johnson, who as Mayor of Cleveland became the nation’s leading proponent of public ownership of utilities during the early 20 th century. Similarly absent from the literature is an appreciation of how Louis Post’s single-tax newspaper, The Public , modernized George’s policies for leading progressive reformers like Brand Whitlock, Newton Baker, William U’Ren, and Frederic C. Howe. Rather than fading after George’s death, the movement had by the 1910s developed a firm basis of power in American cities, where it expanded the Democratic Party’s reach and accrued the political capital to obtain high positions in the Wilson Administration.

  • 3. the Struggle for Reform
    3. The Struggle for Reform. '.. .rooting from this new land's heart the poison growth of Old World weeds, Bashing in with Reason's fists, The mummy face of Christless creeds.' - John Farrell, 1883. hen John Farrell was running the Lithgow Enterprise, the name W"Single Tax" had not been invented, and all those associated with the early movement, which operated in several countries, called themselves "Land Nationalists." In New York city, Father Edward McGlynn (1837-1900) called the movement the "Anti-Poverty, Land, and Labour Party," while in 1882, Henry George revived the old anti-slavery "Free Soil Society" name, since besides its historical associations, it was very descriptive of his purposes. But whatever title was adopted the diverse sections of the movement, including those in Ireland and Scotland with which George was strongly associated, all aimed at the same thing. The part to which Farrell belonged, the Land Nationalisation Association of New South Wales, had an inauspicious beginning at Forbes, a small town in the Central West, 80 miles from the nearest connection to the railway, and about 250 miles from the sea-board at Sydney. In the early years the fortunes of the 'Landlords, 'Wobblers,' and the Labour Movement.' 93 organization were centred on Ignatius Bell, a self-employed boot-maker, and William Dickinson, who made his living driving a delivery cart. Two more unlikely leaders of a political movement could scarcely be found but, as the first presidents of the oldest branch, formed on 26 January 1887, to coincide that year with "Anniversary Day," as "Australia Day" was then called, Bell and Dickinson were seen as the 'fathers' of the movement.
