Description
As the property rights debate rages across America, legal expert Freyfogle offers a clear-headed look at what the law says and how legal interpretations of property rights have changed over the years.
In courtrooms and statehouses across the country, two different visions of land ownership are clashing. Freyfogle contends that so-called "property rights" advocates have been effective champions of their highly individualistic vision, while the communitarian vision espoused by the other side remains less than clear to most Americans. He proposes legal reforms that could bridge the property rights divide: fairness for individual owners and choices for communities.
