It is no surprise that the genesis of this activity is the United Nations. In 1946, the General Assembly adopted a resolution to promote and create research leading to standards for Housing and Town Planning. This new resolution was the precursor to the Vancouver Declaration on Human Rights and Vancouver Action Plan presented in June of 1976.
A key provision in the Vancouver Action Plan was
that land use should be determined by the long-term interests of the community,
especially since decisions on location of activities and therefore of specific
land uses have a long-lasting effect on the pattern and structure of human
settlements. Land is also a primary element of the natural and man-made
environment and a crucial link in an often delicate balance. Public control of
land use is therefore indispensable to its protection as an asset and the achievement
of the long-term objectives of human settlement policies and strategies.
The Vancouver Action Plan proposed that the world’s governments control the land for the purposes of “social justice”, “development schemes” and “society as a whole”.
In 1987 the UN commissioned a report entitled, “Our Common Future”, or the Brundtland Report, that tackled protection of the environment.
The report concluded, “Poverty is a major cause and effect of global environmental issues.” The solution was to transfer the wealth of industrialized nations, namely America, to poorer countries. Much of that wealth was in the form of private property.
Five years later, in June 1992, these globalist ideals coalesced in a 2-week meeting in Rio de Janeiro called the UN Earth Summit. The outcome was a 40-chapter plan of action to manage the world’s resources, healthcare, education and private property called, Agenda 21.
Many "progressives" have contributed to the erosion of private property rights, including Franklin D. Roosevelt, Howard Zinn, and Bill Clinton to name but a few.
Political historian, David Upham writes that, “Progressives in the twentieth century have in large part aimed at turning the American people away from their traditional attachment to property rights.”
“Within intellectual circles, Progressives have tended both to acknowledge that the Founders attached great significance to property rights and to denigrate them precisely for this attachment. The harsher critics, beginning with Charles Beard, ascribed to the
Founders selfish motives in establishing a constitution that provided generous protections for private property; his claim was that the principal goal of such a constitution was to protect the wealthy elite against the democratic majority.”
The next segment will examine how these globalists ideas of eliminating private property rights have taken hold in America.
