About this ebook
Property and Values offers a fresh look at property rights issues, bringing together scholars, attorneys, government officials, community development practitioners, and environmental advocates to consider new and more socially equitable forms of ownership. Based on a Harvard Law School conference organized by the Equity Trust, Inc., in cooperation with the American Bar Association's Commission on Homelessness and Poverty, the book:
- explains ownership as an evolving concept, determined by social processes and changing social relations
- challenges conventional public-private ownership categories
- surveys recent studies on the implications of public policy on property values
- offers examples from other cultures of ownership realities unfamiliar or forgotten in the United States
- compares experiments in ownership/equity allocation affecting social welfare and environmental conservation
Property and Values is a thought-provoking contribution to the literature on property for planners, lawyers, government officials, resource economists, environmental managers, and social scientists as well as for students of planning, environmental law, geography, or public policy.
