The first coherent analysis of the laws surrounding possession from a comparative and historical perspectiveGBS_insertPreviewButtonPopup('ISBN:9780748693641','ISBN:9780748693658');Possession is a topic which has been researched for centuries, yet there is a surprising dearth of comparative materials and also very little available in English about the law of non-Anglophone jurisdictions. Leaving aside the question of what possession is, this analysis concerns itself with the law's response to 'possession'. The volume comprises contributions from some very distinguished scholars from the civilian tradition (Germany, Italy) as well as the common law (England) and mixed legal systems (Quebec, Scotland, South Africa).Key FeaturesWritten by an international set of contributors from jurisdictions including Germany, Italy, England, Quebec, Scotland and South AfricaLooks at common law, civil law and combined jurisdictionsThe first synthesis of theory on the subject of possessionThe ContributorsCraig Anderson, Lecturer in Law at Robert Gordon University, AberdeenRaffaele Caterina, Professor of Law at the University of TurinEric Descheemaeker, Lecturer in European Private Law at the University of EdinburghSimon Douglas, CUF Lecturer in the University of Oxford and Fellow and Tutor in Law at Jesus College, OxfordYaëll Emerich, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Law, McGill University, MontréalRobin Hickey, Senior Lecturer in Law at Queen's University BelfastDuard Kleyn, Professor of Law at the University of PretoriaLena Kunz, Post-doctoral Researcher at the Institute of Legal History, University of HeidelbergThomas Rüfner, Professor of Law at the University of Trier and Judge on the Court of Appeal in Koblenz"
