The Natural and Artificial Right of Property Contrasted (London: B. Steil, Paternoster Row, 1832)

Thomas Hodgskin (1787-1869) was one of the best libertarian theoreticians of the 19th century. Here, Hodgskin builds from Lockean premises to the conclusion that our sense of property is inextricably linked to our sense of individuality.
