Full Description
This volume is the seventh instalment in the Property Law Perspectives Series. Produced by the Young Property Lawyers' Forum (www.yplf.net), a global network of young property law scholars, this volume presents the carefully curated highlights of two consecutive conferences held at the University of Maastricht and the University of Glasgow.
A broad range of property law topics are covered in this book within the three themes of 'Objects of Property Rights', 'Property and Justice', and 'Property and Land'. The chapters have been submitted by talented young researchers from jurisdictions around the world including Serbia, Chile, and South Africa, with each chapter providing an interesting analysis of an important aspect of property law.
This book merits the attention of every student and academic interested in new developments in property scholarship, as well as of legal practitioners looking to place societal developments into a legal context.
