Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people understand property as something that is owned, a means of creating individual wealth. But in Commodity and Propriety, the first full-length history of the meaning of property, Gregory Alexander uncovers in American legal writing a competing vision of property that has existed alongside the traditional conception. Property, Alexander argues, has also been understood as proprietary, a mechanism for creating and maintaining a properly ordered society. This view of property has even operated in periods—such as the second half of the nineteenth century—when market forces seemed to dominate social and legal relationships. In demonstrating how the understanding of property as a private basis for the public good has competed with the better-known market-oriented conception, Alexander radically rewrites the history of property, with significant implications for current political debates and recent Supreme Court decisions.

Download or read book Being Property Once Myself written by Joshua Bennett and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prize-winning poet argues that blackness acts as the caesura between human and nonhuman, man and animal. Throughout US history, black people have been configured as sociolegal nonpersons, a subgenre of the human. Being Property Once Myself delves into the literary imagination and ethical concerns that have emerged from this experience. Each chapter tracks a specific animal figure—the rat, the cock, the mule, the dog, and the shark—in the works of black authors such as Richard Wright, Toni Morrison, Zora Neale Hurston, Jesmyn Ward, and Robert Hayden. The plantation, the wilderness, the kitchenette overrun with pests, the simultaneous valuation and sale of animals and enslaved people—all are sites made unforgettable by literature in which we find black and animal life in fraught proximity. Joshua Bennett argues that animal figures are deployed in these texts to assert a theory of black sociality and to combat dominant claims about the limits of personhood. Bennett also turns to the black radical tradition to challenge the pervasiveness of antiblackness in discourses surrounding the environment and animals. Being Property Once Myself is an incisive work of literary criticism and a close reading of undertheorized notions of dehumanization and the Anthropocene.

Download or read book Governing People Or Governing Property How Dartmouth College Assimilated the Corporation to Liberalism by Treating it as a Trust written by David A Ciepley and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to Dartmouth College v. Woodward (1819), all commentators on corporate law in England and America emphasized the governing powers of corporations as the primary advantage of incorporation. Corporate charters put associations under constitutional government with authority to make and enforce rules beyond the law of the land. This governing authority--along with all other corporate rights, such as holding property, contracting, and appearing in court as a single “person”--was granted by the public authority via the charter, and placed in private hands. Corporations were thus neither public nor private, but, like medieval fiefs, a blend. Bringing Dartmouth under the protection of the Contracts Clause, however, required treating the charter not as the constitution of a government, but as a contract about property. To turn this trick, Marshall reinterprets the charter as, in effect, a trust contract, and the college as a charitable trust. First, the in loco parentis authority of schools, whether incorporated or not, allowed Marshall to deny that incorporation brought the college any new governance powers over people. It is, he asserts, just a device for more easily preserving and managing property. Next, he denies that the trustees received their right to control the property from the king's charter. Instead, Marshall argues (in a way that follows the logic of trust contracts), they received it from the donors. The donors gave their property to the trustees, who stand in the stead of the donors, with rights, powers, and purposes from the donors (not from the state). It is thus a wholly private institution focused on managing and dispensing property. This is a university reduced not just to a charitable college, but to a charitable trust. Though inaccurate, it allowed the Court to place Dartmouth and, by extension, all other “private” corporations under the protection of the Contracts Clause. The effect, however, was to place a spotlight on the corporation's property powers while putting its governance powers in shadow. The longer-term consequences are then noted. First, moving corporations to the normative category of the private legitimated corporate activities previously discountenanced and waived corporate responsibilities previously assumed. Second, theorizing corporations as private property vessels rather than as governments, primed corporations to received further constitutional rights protecting property. And third, this theorization suppressed a strong argument in favor of granting corporate subordinates--whether these be professors or industrial and service workers--a voice in the management of the corporate governments they are under, as part of the constitutional promise of republican government.

The contributions, by leading world experts, analyze the most pressing issues in copyright, trademark and patent law as seen from the perspectives of the USA, the EU, Asia and WIPO. This volume, in common with its predecessors, seeks to make a lasting contribution to discourse in IP law; few of the chapters are merely descriptive, and most raise questions of policy or discuss new developments. Praise for the Fordham International Intellectual Property Conference: "This must be one of the most enjoyable and thought-provoking conferences in the IP field. The high quality of the speakers is matched by the intense, audience-led debates and challenges which follow." Hugh Laddie, (formerly Mr. Justice Laddie) University College, London and consultant to Rouse & Co, Willoughby & Partners. "Faculty for this conference are always well-known 'names' well respected leaders in their fields, speaking with a combination of candor and timeliness that is unrivaled by any other forum of its kind." The Honorable Marybeth Peters, Register of Copyrights, United States Copyright Office.
