Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Human Rights and The Transformation of Property, leading human rights lawyer Stuart Wilson develops a novel theory of how law leads to social change and what the prospects are for South Africa's Constitution to shape a more just distribution of property. Wilson questions long-held beliefs about the nature of land reform and the appropriateness of the concept of ownership as a way of organising access to land and property in South Africa. The book gives an overview of key aspects of constitutional and common law property rights - including the rights of ownership, possession and eviction; the rights associated with leases and mortgages; the National Credit Act; and the PIE Act - and discusses how they interact. It shows how recent developments in the law of eviction, rental housing, mortgage and consumer credit have opened up new spaces in which unlawful occupiers, tenants and debtors are challenging the power of landlords and financial institutions to dispossess them. By triggering a radical restructuring of property law, Wilson argues, the Constitution may yet keep the promise of a South Africa that belongs to all who live in it. Human Rights and The Transformation of Property offers the most up-to-date critical account of recent developments in residential lease law, mortgage bond law and eviction law, and provides a policy rationale for these developments. It will be a valuable teaching text for law students and a reference guide for law and humanities academics, legal practitioners, NGOs and activists.

Download or read book Land Title in South Africa written by D. L. Carey Miller and published by Juta. This book was released on 2000 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This important new work is the first comprehensive survey of South African land law following the sweeping land reforms enacted during the past decade. It considers the substance and working of these reforms in the context of the pre-existing common law and legislation. An outline of the main features of the South African landholding before 1990 is followed in a detailed discussion of the established procedures of registration, prescription nad alternative forms of title. Registration in terms of the Deeds Registries Act remains a fundamental aspect of the acquisistion of real rights in land, and chapters dealing with these subjects constitute an authoritative source of reference for the property practitioner and conveyancer, the consultant and developer. They revise and update the corresponding chapters from The Acquisition and protection of Ownership (Juta, 1986) by the same author, which is relied upon by practitioners and the courts as a standard reference in the field of property law. The land reform programme is examined in the context of these pre-existing procedures, and with reference to the history of discriminatory landholding and constitutional property provisions. The result is a coherent account of land title in South Africa at the end of the 20th century."

Download or read book Land Tenure Challenges in Africa written by Horman Chitonge and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a significant contribution to the literature on land reform in various African contexts. While the economic evidence is clear that secure property rights are a necessary condition for catalysing broad-based economic development, the governance process by which those rights are secured is less clear. This book details the historical complexity of land rights and the importance of understanding this history in the process of trying to improve tenure security. Through a combination of single country case studies, comparative case studies and regional comparisons, the book is unequivocal that good governance is paramount for improving the performance of land reform programmes. All attempts at moving towards more formal secure tenure require congruence with informal norms, beliefs and values, and a set of clear systems and processes to avoid corruption and unintended negative consequences.

Download or read book Transformative Property Law written by Gustav Muller and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transformative Property Law honours Professor AJ Van der Walt (1956-2016) - scholar, mentor, and teacher. As the first incumbent of the DST/NRF South African Research Chair in Property Law his primary research goal was to develop the theoretical foundations for the transformation of property law in post-apartheid South Africa. Transformative Property Law consists of 20 essays by a combination of senior and young scholars from South Africa, the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Zimbabwe. The essays focus on the themes that Professor Van der Walt developed during the first 10 years of the research chair, namely: (a) the single system of law and subsidiarity principles; (b) the marginality principle; (c) the development of the common law of property; (d) constitutional property law; and (e) property theory. This volume also includes a list of all Professor Van der Walt's research outputs and a list of all the Masters and Doctoral students that he supervised during his career. Transformative Property Law covers topics that are on the forefront of global thinking on property law and will be a valuable resource for subject specialists, researchers, advanced students, practitioners and the judiciary alike. Juta's Property Law Library is aimed at revisiting and reassessing the whole of South African property law, which includes uncodified common law that is mostly embodied in case law, academic writing and legislation, to establish: - how each aspect of property law was influenced by apartheid law; - its response to the new constitutional dispensation (including land reform), and; - whether it can make a contribution towards the transformation of South African law and society. For this purpose, Juta's Property Law Library will eventually consist of a number of monographs, each of which is focused on a specific aspect of property law.

Download or read book Security Rights in Intellectual Property written by Eva-Maria Kieninger and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-11 with total page 711 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the main legal and economic challenges to the creation and enforcement of security rights in intellectual property and explores possible avenues of reform, such as more specific rules for security in IP rights and better coordination between intellectual property law and secured transactions law. In the context of business financing, intellectual property rights are still only reluctantly used as collateral, and on a small scale. If they are used at all, it is mostly done in the form of a floating charge or some other “all-asset” security right. The only sector in which security rights in intellectual property play a major role, at least in some jurisdictions, is the financing of movies. On the other hand, it is virtually undisputed that security rights in intellectual property could be economically valuable, or even crucial, for small and medium-sized enterprises – especially for start-ups, which are often very innovative and creative, but have limited access to corporate financing and must rely on capital markets (securitization, capital market). Therefore, they need to secure bank loans, yet lack their own traditional collateral, such as land.

Download or read book The Constitutional Protection and Regulation of Property and its Influence on the Reform of Private Law and Landownership in South Africa and Germany written by Hanri Mostert and published by Springer. This book was released on 2002-12-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The degree to which the traditional concept of property can be adjusted in order to accommodate basic constitutional concepts such as freedom and social duty, is analysed by the author. The focus is placed on recent reforms in the land law of Germany and South Africa. Remarkable similarities in the history, structure and interpretation of German and South African property law and constitutional law are indicated and a link between private law, constitutional law, land reform and legal comparison is established. This is of particular significance for the implementation of the constitutional objectives of land reform by the South African judiciary and legislature. It furthermore provides an overview of the intricate system of constitutional property protection that has been developed in German law.

Download or read book Rights to Land written by William Beinart and published by Jacana Media. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of land rights is an ongoing and complex topic of debate for South Africans. Rights to Land comes at a time when land redistribution by government is underway. This book seeks to understand the issues around land rights and distribution of land in South Africa and proposes that new policies and processes should be developed and adopted. It further provides an analysis of what went so wrong, and warns that a new phase of restitution may ignite conflicting ethnic claims and facilitate elite capture of land and rural resources. While there are no quick fixes, the first phase of restitution should be completed and the policy then curtailed. The book argues that land ownership and administration is important to rural democracy and that this should not be placed under the control of traditionalist intermediaries. Land restitution, initiated in 1994, was an important response to the injustices of the apartheid era. But it was intended as a limited and short-term process - initially to be completed in five years. It may continue for decades, creating uncertainty and undermining investment into agriculture. Rights to Land is published in partnership with Good Governance Africa (GGA).
