2023: Land Policy Reading Club

How are planning and law related? How can spatial planners’ interventions in property rights be justified? Who benefits from spatial planning in a society committed to the rule of law?

Last year, our Land Policy Reading Club was dedicated to re-reading classic literature on land policy. In 2023, we re-read more current literature on land, property, and spatial planning. The (online) reading club is organized in cooperation with the International Academic Association on Planning, Law, and Property Rights (PLPR) and the AESOP Thematic Group on Planning, Law and Property Rights. To accept our invitation, please register at readingclub.landpolicy.de or contact thomas.hartmann@tu-dortmund.de

2022: Land Policy Reading Club

What did Elinor Ostrom actually say about land policy? Should planners read Ronald Coase? Why is Henry George relevant for a debate on planning
and property law?
During the 2022 club, Ben Davy and Thomas Hartmann re-read classic literature on land policy to explore and discuss these questions.
The (online) reading club is organized in cooperation with the International Academic Association on Planning, Law, and Property Rights (PLPR) and the AESOP Thematic Group on Planning, Law and Property Rights. More information is available here.
