    The Economic Theory of Eminent Domain

    The Economic Theory of Eminent Domain

    Private Property, Public Use
    • Thomas J. Miceli

    This book uses economic theory to examine the proper scope of the government's constitutional power of eminent domain, which entitles it to take private property for public use, provided that it pays the owner just compensation. It is the first book to survey the large economic literature in this area, and to present it in a way that illuminates the debate over this contentious subject. It is written in a nontechnical way to be accessible to general readers, but economists will benefit from the state-of-the-art models presented in the appendices.

    Legal Pluralism and Development

    Legal Pluralism and Development

    Scholars and Practitioners in Dialogue
    • Brian Z. Tamanaha, Caroline Sage, Michael Woolcock

    Academics, especially legal anthropologists and sociologists, have discussed legal pluralism for decades. However, their work has not been consulted in the development context and academics themselves have failed to benefit from the insights of development practitioners. This book brings together contributions from academics and practitioners to explore the implications of legal pluralism for legal development.
