Origins of political order

Right left divide over property. Rousseau says first fence original injustice. Marx rid of all pp. Madison gov to protect individual right to acquire property. 64

Early private property not individual but my kinship or Family. Religious and social functions as important as economic. Romans and Greek hearth and burial. Owned but couldn’t sell. Ancestors and future generations live there. Community vision of Property. 66

Some parts of west Africa Property more tied to religion. Initiated and welcome into the rites bright access to land.

Sometimes owned by whole tribe but worked individually with overlapping obligations of help and support. Possible that many groups have overlapping claims on same land. Pastoral peoples didn’t own land. Shared access. No evidence of tragedy of commons.

Did tragedy if commons exist? Was it always or example of social deterioration in England? Not lots of other evidence. 68
