Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In America, we are eager to claim ownership: our homes, our ideas, our organs, even our own celebrity. But beneath our nation’s proprietary longing looms a troublesome question: what does it mean to own something? More simply: what is property? The question is at the heart of many contemporary controversies, including disputes over who owns everything from genetic material to indigenous culture to music and film on the Internet. To decide if and when genes or culture or digits are a kind of property that can be possessed, we must grapple with the nature of property itself. How does it originate? What purposes does it serve? Is it a natural right or one created by law? Accessible and mercifully free of legal jargon, American Property reveals the perpetual challenge of answering these questions, as new forms of property have emerged in response to technological and cultural change, and as ideas about the appropriate scope of government regulation have shifted. This first comprehensive history of property in the United States is a masterly guided tour through a contested human institution that touches all aspects of our lives and desires. Stuart Banner shows that property exists to serve a broad set of purposes, constantly in flux, that render the idea of property itself inconstant. Despite our ideals of ownership, property has always been a means toward other ends. What property signifies and what property is, we come to see, has consistently changed to match the world we want to acquire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Law of Real Property in New York: An Essay Introductory to the Study of the N. Y. Revised Statutes (With Appendices) An attempt to trace the legal institutions of the Eng land of the seventeenth century to their cis-atlantic abode is followed by a more practical theme - the Revised Stat utes one of the most useful applications of the old com mon law to the institutions of America ever yet made. These celebrated statutes serve as the basis of the pres ent law of real property, and their exposition by the great courts of this State contributes a body of law of in finite value to the particular jurisprudence of America. In many instances cases will be found to be cited because they are deemed illustrative of the historical phase of the subject under consideration; but 'in the majority of in stances only because they are decisive of the text. A multiplication of authorities has not been aimed at, as it always has seemed to the writer that there can be but one decision by a court of last resort, under the great fundamental doctrine of our jurisprudence, stare decisis et non quieta movere.

Download or read book An Historical Introduction to the Land Law written by Sir William Searle Holdsworth and published by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.. This book was released on 2002 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Historical Roots of English Land Law. Originally published: London: Oxford University Press, 1927. xxiv, 339 pp. One of the most distinguished historians of English common law, Holdsworth produced this manual to provide students of real property with a concise history of the field. This background was necessary, he argued, because contemporary land law was hard to comprehend apart from its history. "[Holdsworth] has cheerfully carried through the task of giving us an elementary survey of one part of the vast subject in the mastery of which he stands alone. Most writers of manuals have to popularize the results of the labour of others; Professor Holdsworth need pillage few storehouses but his own." --Law Quarterly Review 44: (1928) 105. William S. Holdsworth [1871-1944] was a professor of Constitutional Law at the University of Cambridge from 1903-1966 and became the Vinerian Professor of English Law at Oxford in 1922. He is well-known for his monumental A History of English Law (1903-1966) and other works, such as Charles Dickens as a Legal Historian (1929) and Some Makers of English Law (1938).

Download or read book Law Land and Family written by Eileen Spring and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eileen Spring presents a fresh interpretation of the history of inheritance among the English gentry and aristocracy. In a work that recasts both the history of real property law and the history of the family, she finds that one of the principal and determinative features of upper-class real property inheritance was the exclusion of females. This exclusion was accomplished by a series of legal devices designed to nullify the common-law rules of inheritance under which--had they prevailed--40 percent of English land would have been inherited or held by women. Current ideas of family development portray female inheritance as increasing in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, but Spring argues that this is a misperception, resulting from an incomplete consideration of the common-law rules. Female rights actually declined, reaching their nadir in the eighteenth century. Spring shows that there was a centuries-long conflict between male and female heirs, a conflict that has not been adequately recognized until now.
