Drawing on the thoughts of various philosophers, political thinkers, economists, and lawyers, Terry Anderson and Laura Huggins present a blueprint for the nonexpert-expert on how societies can encourage or discourage freedom and prosperity through their property rights institutions. This book details step-by-step what property rights are, what they do, how they evolve, how they can be protected, and how they promote freedom and prosperity.
