About Thomas Spence






Did you know about Thomas Spence?

His scheme was not for land nationalization but for the establishment of self-contained parochial communities in which rent paid to the parish (wherein the absolute ownership of the land was vested) should be the only tax of any kind. Spence was born in poverty and died the same way after long periods of imprisonment in 1814. At the centre of Spence's work was his Plan known as 'Spence's Plan'.

Thomas Spence (June 21 1750 – September 8 1814) was an English Radical and advocate of the common ownership of land.
