Much of the 10 years of this blog have been ruminating on the fallacy of soul. I will be concluding eventually (I expect) that the idea of "property" is made of the same nonsense as "soul." The New Economics will be based on ideas that do not invoke fantasy metaphysics.
But to be sure of the problem what is the current dogma? To expand on the last post: souls are the things which have "real" desires, and whose desires should be taken into account in transactions. Only souls can have property.
This is a development because not very long ago non-white races and women could not have property. So the idea of property is fluid and has been becoming more inclusive over the last century. The current state of the idea I'm linking with soul, in that I can't see animals getting property rights with the current economy. Altho this is very probably at the point of changing.
