Produktinformationen zu „The Politics of Possession (PDF)“
The Politics of Possession investigates how struggles over
access to resources and political power constitute property and
authority recursively. Such dynamics are integral to state
formation in societies characterized by normative and legal
pluralism.
* Includes some of the latest theoretical work on the dynamics of
access and property and how they are joined to questions of power
and authority
* Explores how access to resources is often contested and rife
with conflict, particularly in post-colonial and post-socialist
countries
* Offers a thought-provoking approach to the study of everyday
processes of state formation
* Shows how the process of seeking authorization for property
claims works to legitimize the authorizers, and the efforts
undertaken by politico-legal institutions to gain legitimacy
underpin and undermine various claims of access and property
* Contributors explore from a wide empirical compass of original
research spanning Latin America, Africa, South-East Asia, and
Eastern Europe
