Contested Property Claims - What Disagreement Tells Us About Ownership (Paperback): Mikkel Thorup, Maja Hojer Bruun, Patrick... Contested Property Claims - What Disagreement Tells Us About Ownership (Paperback)
Mikkel Thorup, Maja Hojer Bruun, Patrick Joseph Cockburn, Bjarke Skaerlund Risager
R1,273 Discovery Miles 12 730 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Property relations are such a common feature of social life that the complexity of the web of laws, practices, and ideas that allow a property regime to function smoothly are often forgotten. But we are quickly reminded of this complexity when conflict over property erupts. When social actors confront a property regime - for example by squatting - they enact what can be called 'contested property claims'. As this book demonstrates, these confrontations raise crucial issues of social justice and show the ways in which property conflicts often reflect wider social conflicts. Through a series of case studies from across the globe, this multidisciplinary anthology brings together works from anthropologists, legal scholars, and geographers, who show how exploring contested property claims offers a privileged window onto how property regimes function, as well as an illustration of the many ways that the institution of property shapes power relationships today.

Voices of 1968 - Documents from the Global North (Hardcover): Salar Mohandesi, Bjarke Skaerlund Risager, Laurence Cox Voices of 1968 - Documents from the Global North (Hardcover)
Salar Mohandesi, Bjarke Skaerlund Risager, Laurence Cox
R1,980 Discovery Miles 19 800 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The year 1968 witnessed one of the great upheavals of the twentieth century, as social movements shook every continent. Across the Global North, people rebelled against post-war conformity and patriarchy, authoritarian education and factory work, imperialism and the Cold War. They took over workplaces and universities, created their own media, art and humour, and imagined another world. The legacy of 1968 lives on in many of today's struggles, yet it is often misunderstood and caricatured. Voices of 1968 is a vivid collection of original texts from the movements of the long 1968. We hear these struggles in their own words, showing their creativity and diversity. We see feminism, black power, anti-war activism, armed struggle, indigenous movements, ecology, dissidence, counter-culture, trade unionism, radical education, lesbian and gay struggles, and more take the stage. Chapters cover France, Czechoslovakia, Northern Ireland, Britain, the USA, Canada, Italy, West Germany, Denmark, Mexico, Yugoslavia and Japan. Introductory essays frame the rich material - posters, speeches, manifestos, flyers, underground documents, images and more - to help readers explore the era's revolutionary voices and ideas and understand their enduring impact on society, culture and politics today.
