by P. J. Proudhon (Author)
"What is Property?" is a book by French philosopher and economist Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, first published in 1840. In this work, Proudhon examines the concept of property and its implications for society. He argues that property is theft and that it is the source of all social ills. He also proposes a new form of social organization based on mutualism and voluntary cooperation. This book is an important work in the history of anarchism and has been influential in the development of modern economic thought. Pierre-Joseph Proudhon (1809 - 1865) was a French politician, philosopher, and economist. He is best known for his theories of mutualism and anarchism, which he developed in his works such as "System of Economic Contradictions" (1846) and "The General Idea of the Revolution in the 19th Century" (1851).
