Rethinking Expropriation Law I by
This book is the first of a series in which experts engage critically with identified aspects of expropriation law. The internationally diverse group of contributing authors offer valuable insight into the treatment of public purpose/interest related issues as they are canvassed in jurisdictions around the world. Some of these issues include: the public purpose/interest requirement and the definition of the object of expropriation ** the role of public purpose/interest in distinguishing between expropriation and regulation of property ** public interest and the classification of expropriatory actions as administrative, statutory, or constructive ** the categorizing of the notions of public interest and public purpose ** the justifiability of expropriation without compensation ** the consequences of a change in purpose after expropriation has been effected ** whether an expropriation can be challenged on the basis that less invasive means were available for the state to realize the specific purpose ** whether the public interest could legitimately entail transfer of expropriated property to a party other than the state. [Subject: Expropriation Law, Property Law, Comparative Law]
