This Open Access book presents a legal geography of
property rights in land through the lenses of landscape and
critical spatial justice. It seeks to reassert the importance
of landscape and place in property as an alternative to abstract
concepts of property which dominate contemporary thinking. It
investigates property’s origins and uptake in the common law
through the lenses of landscape and spatial justice, providing a
genealogy of property, from its early origins in pre-feudal
Scandinavia to its development as a cornerstone concept in English
common law. It offers a new perspective and analytical tools
to reconsider many accepted approaches to land in the law
today. This book also contributes both to the decolonization
of property law and critiques of property’s unsustainability, as
well as the examination of the role of law itself in facilitating
large scale land changes that destroy place, and the ramifications
of this process. It speaks to socio-legal, environmental and
property law scholars. This is an open access book.
