What sort of rights are entailed in the ownership of private
property? The Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution states that
""private property [shall not] be taken for public use, without
just compensation""; this has been read to imply that the
government may take private property if it provides ""just
compensation."" This provision has been used by the government to
compel citizens to sell their property in order to clear space to
build public roads, parks, or even commercial spaces. But these
public benefits come at a cost and, now, those who have lost land
or the physical or economic use of their land are fighting back.
This debate is explored in Private Property Rights, an objective
guide that will enhance readers' understanding of this pivotal
issue.
