Property is a core legal and social institution: Its definition poses fundamental questions about efficiency, fairness, wealth distribution, and the tension between public and private rights. What can be owned? What does it mean to own or transfer property? How may the government permissibly regulate or take property? Though American property law has developed answers to these questions mainly in disputes over land, these questions take on new significance in the contexts of artistic and innovative creation, bodily integrity, the internet, and even space. This course examines property law and theory through the prism of these old and new resource conflicts.
