The International Mobility of Land and the Law of the Sea

Abstract

We can distinguish between the various factors of production according to the ease with which they can move from one country to another country. Thus 'land', comprising the actual area of the country, cannot be moved from one country to another country, or at any rate, can be moved only at such prohibitive cost that the question of its movement never arises .... [A]nd no matter what policy may be adopted for encouraging or discouraging factor movements.
