Course Title

Property: Law and a Market Economy III

Department(s)

Description

This course gives students a thorough grounding in all aspects of real property law - the concept of ownership, present and future estates in land, easements and covenants, adverse possession, and landlord-tenant law, as well as an exploration of the constitutional and social policy dimensions involved in zoning regulations and the concept of eminent domain. Approaching the study of each of these legal concepts from a public interest perspective, the course focuses on the primary dilemma of property law - the conflict between private ownership and public interest in proper and effective land use, environmental protection, controlled development, and the needs of society as a whole.
