== Personal vis-à-vis private property ==
* Marxists argue that private property is a [[social relation]]ship between the owner and persons deprived, i.e. not a relationship between person and thing. Private property may include artifacts, factories, mines, dams, infrastructure, natural vegetation, mountains, deserts, and seas {{Ndash}}these generate capital for the owner without the owner necessarily having to perform any physical labor. Conversely, those who perform labor using somebody else's private property are considered deprived of the value of their work in Marxist theory, and are instead given a salary that is disjointed from the value generated by the worker.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-02-26 |title=Marx's Theory of Alienation |url=https://simplysociology.com/marx-alienation.html |access-date=2023-06-26 |language=en-US}}</ref>
* Personal property, or ''[[Possession (law)|possessions]]'', includes "items intended for personal use" (e.g., one's [[toothbrush]], clothes, and vehicles, and rarely, money). The owner has a [[Distributive justice|distributive right]] to exclude others (i.e. the right to command a "fair share" of personal property).
* In anarchist theory, ''private property'' typically refers to capital or the means of production, whereas ''personal property'' refers to consumer and non-capital goods and services.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://anarchism.pageabode.com/afaq/secB3.html#secb31 |title=B.3 Why are anarchists against private property? - Anarchist Writers |website=anarchism.pageabode.com |access-date=29 April 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171114010322/http://anarchism.pageabode.com/afaq/secB3.html#secb31|archive-date=14 November 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |url=https://www.jacobinmag.com/2016/02/socialism-marxism-private-property-person-lennon-imagine-kenny-loggins/ |title=End Private Property, Not Kenny Loggins |magazine=[[Jacobin (magazine)|Jacobin]] |access-date=29 April 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171026190844/https://www.jacobinmag.com/2016/02/socialism-marxism-private-property-person-lennon-imagine-kenny-loggins/ |archive-date=26 October 2017}}</ref>
