Incorporating contributions from a variety of countries, this Handbook explores property law with a critical edge, viewing the subject through the lens of both public and private law theory and providing a springboard for further research. This unique coverage of new and emerging subjects in property law also examines developments in Africa, Latin America and China.
This Handbook maps the structure and the dynamics of property law in the contemporary world and will be an invaluable reference for scholars working across the breadth of the field.
'This excellent and wide-ranging book offers the best and most comprehensive comparative analysis of property law I have seen in years. The book covers a myriad of fascinating topics. It contains contributions from first-rate property scholars from all over the world and despite its breadth, it makes for a delightful read. The chapters of the books contain a plethora of new insights into the law and practice of property in different countries. Any reader will learn a tremendous deal from the book. Its chapters offer a rich discussion of assets, doctrines, institutions and legal systems. It is difficult to imagine such wealth of legal resources and knowledge in any other single source. The book is highly recommended to all readers.'
– Gideon Parchomovsky, University of Pennsylvania, US
'Property laws and norms lie at the foundation of human life, but because property rules have been thought to be peculiarly local, knowledge about them has travelled poorly. This volume, which cuts across disciplines and cultures, is a welcome effort to stanch this parochialism.'
– Robert Ellickson, Yale Law School, US
'Opening a property law book often results in reading mere technical descriptions of enforceable rules within a given legal system. This book edited by Michele Graziadei and Lionel Smith breaks this tradition by providing a complete, high-level and up-to-date introduction to key issues in contemporary property law from a multidisciplinary and global perspective. Thanks to the diversity and the quality of the various contributions, it is a perfect gateway for anyone broadly interested in the field.'
– Mikhail Xifaras, Sciences Po Law School, France
'As one of the latest titles in Elgar's Research Handbooks in Comparative Law series, this book presents the results of an enormous amount of up-to-date research in this increasingly topical area of law and contains a wealth of references in the extensive footnoting and the bibliographies which follow most chapters. For comparative lawyers, or property lawyers advising international clients, this is an extremely useful volume to acquire.'
