Abstract
The Theory of Rent has been the focus of heated debate over a number of years—prompted in part by the swing from boom to bust in commercial property markets in cities such as London. Kerr analyses different strands in this debate, revealing that in fact they have much in common. He argues for a return to Marx in order to understand the real dynamics of urban property markets.Keywords
