The Single Tax Party started as the Land Value Tax Party in 1910 and was renamed the Commonwealth Land Party for the presidential campaign of 1924. Its single-issue platform was based on the free-market tax reform principles defined and popularized by American political economist and public intellectual Henry George, the ideology now called Georgism, which proposed a single tax based on the value of land.
