Center for Land Economics
A modern nonprofit think tank, co-founded by Lars Doucet, focused on land value tax research and practical, equitable land assessment.
Overview
The Center for Land Economics is a contemporary nonprofit research organisation co-founded by Lars Doucet and Greg Miller. It represents the modern, empirically minded wing of the Georgist revival, focusing on the practical questions that determine whether land value taxation can work in the real world.
Focus
Its central concern is land assessment — building better methods and data to value land separately from improvements, directly tackling the most common objection to LVT. It also produces research and tools to help jurisdictions evaluate and implement land-based taxation.
Significance
Where older organisations preserve and teach the tradition, the Center for Land Economics aims to operationalise it — turning Georgist theory into deployable assessment technology and policy guidance for the 2020s.
