The anthropological tradition approaches property as a 'bundle of
rights' and property relationships as social relationships.
Rejecting both liberal and socialist approaches, which often
neglect the wider social and cultural contexts of property, the
contributors to this volume renew and extend the anthropological
perspective. The ethnographic case studies include accounts of
sharing and intelligence gathering among hunter-gatherers and
herders in Africa and in Siberia, land appropriation from native
Americans, and the problems associated with the disposal of
property in Melanesia. However the anthropological perspective can
also illuminate capitalist property relations, and there are
fascinating essays on property redistribution in Cyprus and
Romania, and on the history of property rights in England and
Japan.
