Nine-tenths of the Law

How does 'property' fit into designs for an equitable society? This book examines the history of squatting and property struggles in the United States from colonialism to 20th century urban squatting and the foreclosure crisis of the late 2000s, and how such resistance movements shape the law. The book highlights recent tactics like creative squatting ventures and the use of adverse possession to claim title to vacant homes. Hannah Dobbz unveils the tangled relationship Americans have always had in creating and sustaining healthy communities.
