Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decision of the House of Lords in Twinsectra v Yardley (2002) has refocused attention on the Quistclose trust (Barclays Bank v Quistclose Ltd 1970] AC 567).

The purpose of these essays is to explore the supposed foundations of the trust and subject them to a searching analysis. In particular, attention will focus on Lord Millett's controversial analysis in Twinsectra of the way the trust works and his assertion that it is consistent with traditional principles of trust law.

Download or read book Proprietary Remedies in Context written by Craig Rotherham and published by Hart Publishing. This book was released on 2002-04-23 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rotherham (U. of Cambridge, UK) provides a study of the juridical doctrines of English common law that allow for the acquisition of rights of ownership without an owner's consent and the issues raised by such redistributions of property rights. He ar gues that there is a fundamental tension in English law between the idea that property is inviolable and a de facto recognition of remedies that redistribute property rights. This tension leads to doctrines that are highly misleading and often indefe nsible. He suggests that the refusal to acknowledge the normative dimension of common law reasoning has precluded rational policy-making and has led to legal justifications that obfuscate rather than explain. A more rational doctrine would reject the absolutist paradigm of property, recognizing proper limits. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
