Partly an examination of law, partly of culture, politics, economics, and even religion, Banner successfully shows how our notions of property and so-called "natural property" in essence sketch the shifting borders of what Americans deem appropriate government regulation. "Our conceptions of property have always been molded to serve our particular purposes," Banner writes, using examples ranging from zoning laws (which were often used to enforce racial and economic boundaries); eminent domain and personal property disputes; as well as new, thorny notions of intellectual property in the digital age (digital copying makes some property rights harder to enforce, he notes, but creates new opportunities as well). Banner even addresses biological breakthroughs (can a company own a genetically engineered hybrid or a cell line?). It's a huge amount of history and analysis that ably proves a simple thesis: "the debates have never been about property in the abstract," Banner writes. "Property has always been a means, rather than an end."--Publishers Weekly. 001403918 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001403918 650_0 $$aProperty$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001403918 650_0 $$aRight of property$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001403918 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBanner, Stuart, 1963-$$tAmerican property.$$dCambridge, Mass : Harvard University Press, 2011$$z9780674058057$$w(DLC) 2010039752$$w(OCoLC)666573561 001403918 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001403918 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10678705$$zOnline Access 001403918 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:466295$$pGLOBAL_SET 001403918 980__ $$aEBOOK 001403918 980__ $$aBIB 001403918 982__ $$aEbook 001403918 983__ $$aOnline
