A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Through a series of case studies, this multidisciplinary anthology brings together works from anthropologists, legal scholars, and geographers, who show how exploring contested property claims offers a privileged window onto how property regimes function, and illustrates the ways that the institution of property shapes power relationships today.
