170 Property

Property law guides how we interact through and around a variety of valuable and increasing scare resources, including land, personal possessions, and ideas.  This course explores how and why property is allocated; what default rights and obligations come with ownership; the role of private agreements with respect to property; and the extent and limits of the state’s power to set the terms of ownership.  Throughout, we will consider justifications for property rights as well as the fine-grained details of how courts and other institutions resolve conflicts about property.  There are a number of common threads that tie property law together, and a series of recurring themes that we will emphasize throughout the semester.  Among these, the most important are likely the relational and interdependent nature of property rights. As far as the law is concerned, property is not a “thing” like a piece of land, but a set of claims that some people have against others with regard to particular resources.  Such claims are deeply contextual and relational; saying that someone “owns” something is generally the beginning, not the end, of the legal inquiry.  Questions about the ways in which race, socioeconomic status, and gender have shaped property rights will inform our conversation throughout the semester.

Property rights have been at the very heart of human development in the past centuries. On one hand, property has been viewed as the basis for liberty and economic development. On the other hand, as Proudhon said, property is just another word for theft. With these questions in mind, we will cover the conventional areas of a basic property course, but with additional materials on international and comparative law. We will begin with an inquiry into how members of a society allocate, and should allocate, formal and informal entitlements to scarce resources, primarily land but also water, data, and even wild animals. Through the course we will explore various forms of private property and also alternative regimes such as communal and state property. We will also explore the role of property rights in addressing various challenges human beings are facing today: How to reform eminent domain institutions and land use regulations to make cities more liveable? Are property rights the key to economic prosperity and political freedom in the U.S. and worldwide? At the core of property is the boundary and interaction between individual dominion and state sovereignty, which we will examine in both conventional (such as land) and unconventional (such as data) settings.
