Examines how the control of land affects production, profit, prices and inequality in today's cities Bringing together Marx's original writings on land, rent and the landed property class, this book applies them to contemporary cities in the Global North and South. The book shows how landed property, not just labour and capital, directly affects urban economic development, the built environment, urban governance and the quality of life for people living in cities. It also shows how land, rent and class transform cities in different ways depending on the indigenous, Asiatic, feudal, capitalist or other modes of production that mould the form and substance of cities. Presenting a new comparative approach, this book provides novel insights into the origins of, and solutions to, many of today's urban problems, including urban enclosures, exclusive property development, the financialisation of land, land grabbing and climate change. Don Munro has worked for more than 30 years in urban policy and practice, including community development, economic development, local (municipal) government, state (provincial) government and as a Ministerial Advisor on urban development. He holds a doctorate in political economy from the University of Sydney.
