Synopsis

This study looks at an individual's right to own private property. The author argues that whether it's the need to obtain a permit to build a garage or the loss of farmland to protected wildlife preserves, the ability of a person to completely control what he or she owns is increasingly eroded. The author explores the history of property rights and considers the basis of our claim. Beginning with the ancient Greeks and working his way up to the present day, he looks at basic ideas from Plato, Smith, Blackstone, Bentham, Mill and others about the right to own property and the way it is inextricably bound to concepts of justice and liberty.
