Crucial Options: Dagan on Self-determination and Structural Pluralism

Abstract

s A Liberal Theory of Property sets out a theory of property with autonomy, or self-determination, at its core. Appealing to this liberal value, Dagan contends, is the key to surmounting the justi fi catory challenge presented by the institution of property. Grounding property in autonomy also, he argues, yields some important con-clusions for the re-shaping of current property law. One of these conclusions, the structural pluralism proposal, is the focus of this response.
