PROPERTY CONSIDERED AS A NATURAL RIGHT.
PROPERTY CONSIDERED AS A NATURAL RIGHT .-- OCCUPATION AND CIVIL LAW AS EFFICIENT BASES OF PROPERTY.

DEFINITIONS.
The Roman law defined property as the right to use and abuse one's own within the limits of the law--jus utendi et abutendi re sua, guatenus juris ratio patitur.

A justification of the word ABUSE has been attempted, on the ground that it signifies, not senseless and immoral abuse, but only absolute domain.

Vain distinction! invented as an excuse for property, and powerless against the frenzy of possession, which it neither prevents nor represses.
