This important two-volume collection provides a readily accessible selection of the most influential papers in the field of comparative property law. These articles have played an essential role in shaping property law discourse on both a national and global level. Each study carefully examines different concepts and aspects of property, including theoretical approaches and comparative perspectives, followed by a series of key constitutional questions. This structure offers the reader the opportunity to trace the evolution of comparative property law through the global legal community.

Students, teachers and practitioners will find this collection a fascinating read, as well as a helpful tool in discussing and thoroughly understanding this central, yet profoundly puzzling topic.
